It's a disappointment,
To be frank, I didn't think that Anne Hathaway can be a good Jane Austen,
But then again I thought that maybe she can, after all I never thought that
Ralph Fiennes and Juliette Binoche can be good Wuthering Heights Heathcliff and
Catharine and they turned out great , but in Anne Hathaway case, there were no
surprises, she was as expected, a bad Jane !
Actually, the movie as a whole lacks the depth of the writers story, it says on
the surface, it's like it tells the story of an ordinary girl who lived in
certain age in England, it's NOT telling a story about a certain lady who
became one of the most important female writers! The screenplay lacks a lot, and
the directing didn't help much.
The only good thing about the movie is , and I dare say, the wonderful James
McAvoy, this guy has the ability to add freshness and goodness to the movies
he's in,
Especially to this one, which would have nothing to brag about if it didn't
have McAvoy ( I sound like I have a crush on the guy, Ha)!!!
One thing for sure, Jane Austen deserves a much better movie, !
Maybe one day she can get that!
