I found the movie both fun, romantic and engaging. Johnson is her usual charm self, and the other roles sparkle, if a little bit superficial. As a movie this is a pretty good, but if you insist that movies should be faithful to the books that inspired them, you should probably not watch it. Personally I don't get why a movie couldn't be good on its own terms, but hey, needs will be nerds, right?

I recommend the movie as a romantic period drama, and forget that it's a Jane Austen story.

Sweet and charming holiday movie with a twist, with Emilia Clarke at her most radiating self. She has that Julia Roberts quality in her charm, but with an English bite to it. Watched the movie with my wife and we laughed and enjoyed ourselves, not expecting a terrific movie. But judged on its on merit, this is a perfect holiday movie. Would watch it again.
