COMMUNITY REVIEWS
Not for me submitted by Amber Kinder on June 15, 2013, 11:37am I found that it was very hard to make it through this movie.
? submitted by cinderellariley on June 20, 2013, 1:12pm Couldnt finish this movie
Kind of a let-down submitted by crazypockets on June 21, 2013, 1:33pm I was really looking forward to this one because I like Russian dramas, and it was billed as being by the same makers as "Pride & Prejudice," and I loved that movie. But I agree with the other two reviewers that this was really hard to get through. I think I fell asleep through the end. The costumes and cinematography were the best parts of the whole thing. I did like that it was a unique take on sets than what I've ever seen in a movie, and it seemed to bring in the whole Russian ballet element. But the characters were all so terrible, it was hard to see how this could be billed as a romance. If anything it did make me want to read the book to see if there is some moral there that I was missing.
Very good! submitted by pvogiatz on August 2, 2015, 11:36pm Tolstoy is a classic, the story is tragic and definitely sad but I found the film nicely done and worthy to watch!
Not worth it submitted by Miodu on June 17, 2017, 10:53pm Watch the 1948 version with Vivien Leigh instead.

Anna Karenina submitted by crp on August 29, 2019, 3:16pm This movie is aesthetically beautiful but hard to watch and desperately so if you have read and enjoyed the book
