RIP Jane Austen

I have read Emma and seen the movie versions of the book. This was a very loose attempt to follow the plot of the Jane Austen novel. Setting it in Hollywood did not improve the story line.

I wonder how the actors were chosen for this Hallmark movie because some are so amateurish that it was hard to believe they are professional players. The writers must have run out of original ideas because Jane Austen is so overworked. I was doubtful about watching it but more curious about how it would be done. Unless you know the real story you may believe that this was a new rom-com to watch. It fades fast.

Bad acting

Wanted to like it but couldn't finish because the acting was so unnatural and difficult to watch.

I dunno...

I was trying to see it for what it was, since it was a Jane Austen novel, but seeing this version was a bit tough to watch. There were some cringey scenes but it was an okay movie.

Cringy

Dreadful acting and storyline. The protagonist actress ...can't. Overacts, fake. Fake fake fake and incredibly annoying.

I only made it part way through the movie and I had to stop. It's truly bad, so don't waste your time.

Some clever bits but needs a wider age range

There's nothing awful about this Jane Austen reworking, and it is fun playing Spot-The-Character, but unlike the originals, these people are all too similar age-wise. Yes, Austen does focus on the young adults (partly because she didn't live especially long), but she showed them in context of three generations (A) this gives more depth and (B) when you re-watch over the years, you identify with different characters and situations so appreciate the movies more. This wouldn't happen with the narrower age perspectives of Lights, Camera, Romance. On the upside the main characters are generally caring and sensitive to each other, albeit with their own realistic limitations so it is still worth a viewing.
