I just LOVE this movie! I have seen it three times already. The only reason I would have older kids watch this is because most would either not understand or be entertained by it. The one worry some may have is that there is talk of a man running off after getting a woman pregnant. However, this is done very tastefully without anything explicit.

Excellent love story of course by Jane Austen. This one I watch over and over and am enthralled with the actors performances. Moves you to tears and makes you want cheer!

First of all, let me say that I am in awe of Emma Thompson for taking a book nearly devoid of dialogue and turning it into a witty, authentic-sounding screenplay. Then in additional to the brilliant adaptation, there are wonderful performances, lush scenery, astonishing period costumes, and a lovely score. Romantics everywhere will swoon.

A good movie, although definitely not up to the par of A&E's Pride and Prejudice. The entire cast is excellent, and the set and costume designs are beautiful. There is really nothing of concern in it aside from a subtle reference to a character's illicit relationship with a young girl, and she is said to be pregnant and on the point of delivery. However, this is done in such a way that younger kids won't grasp the meaning. Altogether a great movie, and lots of fun for any Jane Austen fan! (or Harry Potter fan; the movie stars Alan Rickman, Emma Thompson, and Kate Winslet, and Imelda Staunton has a supporting role Mrs. Palmer!)
