Pride and Prejudice - The Special Edition Customer Reviews (115 - 117 of 229 Reviews)

Excellence
This is simply one of the best movies I have ever seen. It is well-made, engaging, humorous, smart, and it has a lot of heart. Even though it is quite long, I always am just itching to put on the second disk at the end of the first, who cares how late it is! As I understand it, this is one of the most popular movies ever released in DVD format - and it sure deserves to be!


Nothing else will ever compare!
Firstly, let me address the quality of the DVD. Yeah, it's fine. I don't know what other individuals are talking about when they complain about the poor quality. They must have gotten bad copies because the quality is fine. Now, let's talk about the film itself. Pride and Prejudice is one of my all-time favorite books. This is now one of my all-time favorite movies. This film truly does the novel justice. It is suberb. Colin Firth and Jennifer Ehle top the list of "everyone in this thing was perfectly cast!" My husband doesn't really care much for period films, but he sat down and watched this with me last year and it is now one of his favorite movies. Anytime we're sitting around wondering what to watch, one or both of us inevitably calls out, "Pride and Prejudice!" Love it, love it, love it! I know there is a new version coming out with Keira Knightley, but I can tell you right now it won't be able to hold a candle to this faithful adaptation. Just see this one instead.

5 stars
I recently saw the new 2005 version of P&P with Keira Knightley, as well as this mini-series from 1995 with Colin Firth and Jennifer Ehle.

I absolutely love the story. The new version leaves a lot out as it primarily focuses on Keria Knightley. The mini-series is 300 minutes long and develops all of the other characters. The fact that the mini-series is older does not hurt its quality. The actors are exceptional.

This DVD was selling as #35 on Amazon's best sellers when I wrote this review.
