VHS Movie Reviews of PersuasionMovie Review: Beautiful Version Summary: 5 StarsThis is a wonderful movie. If you love Persuasion you will not be dissapointed by this great movie! BUY IT!
Movie Review: Best Persuasion Available! Summary: 5 StarsHands down this is the best adaptation of Jane Austin's Masterpiece "Persuasion". All the actors and the sets costumes ect...The new Persuasion is excellent too, but if you want a version faithful to the book you need to buy this one. It is absolutley breathtaking. Amanda Root and Ciaran Hinds were born for the roles. They have wonderful chemestry. Your heart beats with Ann's when she sees Captain Wentworth for the 1st time in 7 years you can hardly breath! You can feel his pain when he expresses himself at the dinner at her home over his disappointment 7 years eariler. The conversation is public but it's really a private message from him to her. I cannot reccomend this movie enough. If you have read the book you must see this movie. It is the book!
Movie Review: Lovely, Lovely Summary: 4 StarsPersuasion is my favorite Jane Austen book at this time in my life and this movie represents it beautifully. They met. They fell in love. She broke it off. She regrets it. He comes back. Can they have a second chance? What more can you ask for? This is a British period piece, so the accents can be strong at times...be prepared. Also, it is not exactly like the book, a good reproduction, but not the same page for page. That shouldn't turn you off of the movie though. Nothing is ever as good as the original, but this movie does a decent job trying. Finally, don't expect twenty-somethings acting in this movie. If you want a younger cast, find the PBS/BBC version of Persausion. This movie is acted in by seasoned actors who also played the roles on stage. They know their characters and are very good at bringing them to life.
Movie Review: My fault ordered wrong one Summary: 1 StarsI thought this was the one from the Jane Austin series shown recently on PBS, but it is not! Althought it is ok, I doubt I will watch it again, I'll most likely put in in our annual Spring Garage Sale!
Movie Review: Persuasion (The Movie) Summary: 3 StarsI'm wild about the Jane Austen novels and movies made from these novels. This one was fair, but I felt like a lot of the story was left out. It is difficult to consolidate a Jane Austen novel to screen however since she was so very detailed in her books. Actors were wonderful though. All in all an enjoyable movie. Mrs. R. Miller
