Movie Reviews of Persuasion
Movie Review: Persuasion
Summary: 5 Stars
I saw one other version of "Persuasion", and I have to tell you that this version is by far the best. The first time I saw it I fell in love with the story. Sally Hawkins plays the part of Anne Elliot so well. I could not imagine anyone else playing Anne. It wasn't too long and yet kept all the important details. I am all about the ending and the ending in this movie makes me cry every time. It is just wonderful. I have already seen it to many times to count. It is decent, which is something that is hard to find in movies nowadays. I would recommend this movie to any and all Jane Austen fans. If you love Pride and Prejudice, you will love this version of Persuasion! At least I did! :)Movie Review: I'm addicted
Summary: 5 Stars
I looooove it. I still watch it at least once a week even though I bought it 1 month ago. Rupert Penry-Jones is can I dare say it " as good as Matthew MacFaden " in Pride and Prejudice. That's how I compare it. Those 2 movies are very simmilar in my mind. If you liked Pride and Prejudice with Matthew MacFaden and Keira Knightley you should looooove Persuasion as well. Of course it's still a TV movie but in a BBC production with the Masterpiece
Theatre series. The actors are top notch no exceptions
I wish Hollywood would be able to make girls movies like
the British and specally European acting, much more chemistry amoung the actors.
Movie Review: Great Version
Summary: 5 Stars
Persuasion is my favorite of Jane Austen's novels, and thus far this is the best movie version of the novel that I've seen. It's still not perfect, but no movie adaptation can be. I have some issues with a couple of the scenes; such as when Anne runs all over Bath to catch up to Captain Wentworth (which is ridiculous), just to plow into him in front of her father's home. However, I'm very happy with this version of Persuasion and I watch it often. Most of the other versions of Persuasion that I've seen are incredibly irritating, and so I seldom watch them. I highly recommend this version to any Austen or period film fan.Movie Review: ROMANTIC!!! Watch it!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is by far one of the most romantic Jane Austen adaptations to date. My daughter and I were very pleasantly surprised at how much we love this version. Before seeing it, the Amanda Root "Persuasion" was our favorite and now----this one has taken first place, although the other version is right behind it on our list. It's too bad that some of the reviewers discounted this movie, mostly because of the last scenes. It would be a shame if some Jane Austen lovers decided not to give this movie a try based on those reviews. This is an excellent movie and any Jane Austen fan will love it!Movie Review: Fast service. DVD was in great condition.
Summary: 5 Stars
I have seen several movie versions of this book. This version by far had the most beautiful sets and backgrounds. The acting was fine. The Baron was played as a real person and not a cartoon. However I felt the screenplay left a lot of the story out. You never really feel a connection to the characters. Plus there is a very silly scene where Anne runs for what seems like an hour. It was pointless and absurd. It would have been much better to have taken that screen time to let the actors act. I wouldn't recommend this version of 'Persuasion" when there are much better ones available.
