2000's Barbie T @Thedoll Jan 28 Best version of Emma, better than Gwyneth patrol. Kate Beckinsale is THE ORIGINAL. See more Aye E @RT43717499 Sep 10 Barely tolerable, mostly serviceable, but charmless. Overall gives me the creeps, they are more like father and daughter than brother and sister. Similar to the Gwyneth Paltrow one, there's not much to like in the personality of Emma. But the men in this are really unappealing as well. There's no chemistry with any of the couples, the acting is spotty across the board. Watch the BBC mini-series or the 2020 movie to get a true appreciation of the characters and a more logical pacing and storytelling.

I know that’s how it’s written, but he just looks SO old and she looks SO young that their kiss at the end actually made my stomach clench. Ugh… I like both actors, but together in this movie, they win first place for the most grotesque Austen couple ever depicted. If they had given him a really good hairpiece and said a little less about how he held her as a baby right before they kissed… maybe it would have been fine, but ew ew ew eeeewwwww!!! I don’t even mind any of the Jane Eyre and Rochester depictions compared to this… for some reason this couple isn’t supposed to be like that, ha.

It’s a quintessential Jane Austen adaptation, filled with unexpected twists and turns, yet it all culminates in a satisfying and heartwarming conclusion.

See more 10/08/2021 This version of Emma captures all the warmth an romance of the novel, but also has a very easy and realistic style without appearing pretentious. See more Read all reviews
