Mr. Bennet is an English gentleman living in Hartfordshire with his overbearing wife and 5 daughters. There is the beautiful Jane, the clever Elizabeth, the bookish Mary, the immature Kitty and the wild Lydia. Unfortunately, if Mr. Bennet dies their house will be inherited by a distant cousin whom they have never met. The family's future happiness and security is dependent on the daughters making good marriages. Life is uneventful until the arrival in the neighbourhood of the rich gentleman Mr. Bingley, who rents a large house so he can spend the summer in the country. Mr Bingley brings with him his sister and the dashing, rich, but proud Mr. Darcy. Love is soon buds for one of the Bennet sisters, while another sister may have jumped to a hasty prejudgment. For the Bennet sisters many trials and tribulations stand between them and their happiness.

OK
This version leaves a lot out of the story. It is an ok version but not the best out there (BBC version is the best).
Good
This was a very good movie. I don't think it's as good as the older BBC version, but very enjoyable nonetheless. This is the most romantic adaptation that I've seen.
Pride
Well done version. Read the book first if you have not. Great costumes, complete with the prerequisite kiss on the moors in the mist with the rising sun streaming between them.
Touching
A great rendition of Jane Austen's Pride and prejudice. Keira does a great job of playing elizabeth as a strong and independent woman looking for love.
