Is there anyone who likes it/wants to review it?

A terrible book and a terrible movie, just like Sense and Sensibility.

I watched the movies but never felt inclined to read the books, since they're.... you know... for girls...
And they SUCK!

There have actually been about 6 movies:

Pride and Prejudice (1940). This version was, anachronistically speaking, the worst one.
Pride and Prejudice (1980) (BBC). This version was the most like the book, but was also the most boring.
Pride and Prejudice (1995) (also BBC, I have no idea why they did two). My personal favourite; in my opinion, the best version.
Pride and Prejudice (2005). The worst one, for overall feel of the movie.
Pride and Prejudice: A latter-day comedy. A modern version, as the name suggests. Pretty well done.
Bride and Prejudice. Also a modern-day one, set in India.

They all have their pros and cons, feel free to like any one of them. In my opinion, the 2005 one is horrible. >: :barf

I saw the one from '95 and didn't think much of it. Bride and Prejudice was horrible, but I also have a distaste for Indian culture.

I have seen neither of them, but I'm not surprised the one made in the 21st century sucks. Nearly everything in entertainment from the 20th century is vastly superior to 21st century works.

Yep. "Prince Caspian" was written in the 20th century, and the movie made in 2009 was...... well, it wasn't a very good version.

You forgot to add on your poll there the BBC Television series - I think there's one for that. There's a BBC television series for everything else? :crazy

And yeah, I've never read/watched it all, but from what bits I have read and watched.... I must protest that such atrocities as these should be expelled from society immediately!

I find, however, Pride and Prejudice and Zombies mildly amusing. 8)

I always thought Pride & Prejudice could be adapted to make a really good beat 'em up \ brawler.
