This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

Strong and Moving!

Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

It is a performances centric movie

I really loved it. I love all things Jane Austin. Watched this movie twice in one day. (Stuck at home. Bomb Cyclone.) So, I obviously don't claim to be a purist. It was just a good, entertaining series. There were just a couple of things that caught my eye while watching the series. But, there always are, aren't there? Like, how long was Amanda there? Did she wash her hair? ( Because if she was washing her hair, she had to be straightening it too. It looked pretty obviously kept up with modern tools. And lots of hairspray.) How in the world did Darcy go from hating her in one scene to being in love with her in another scene? Why was Wickham even allowed to step on the property at Pemberly? How did Elizabeth get a job as a nanny with no references at all? All, things that one thinks (or maybe just me) while watching the movie. But, it didn't spoil it for me at all. It was all good fun. I didn't take it so seriously. I don't think it's meant to be taken that way. If taken as it is, I am pretty sure most will enjoy this movie too!

Coin Furth is just a guy who plays Mr. Darcy but Elliot Cowan becomes the real Mr Darcy who doesn't know he is a character in a book that will one day become Pride and Prejudice. He managed to make me sympathetic even though with the balance of the events mixed up the reasons Mr. Darcy goes from being a unsympathetic to sympathetic character are kind of gone. The concept is cool and I think the casting was spot on but I think that the redemption doesn't really happen. In the end it's just entertainment but it's fun, and Amanda is like most women who deserve to find their own Mr Darcy rather than marry someone who doesn't love them.

All the actors inhabit their parts splendidly and as the novel is so well known, the producer, director, screenwriter & actors have produced a very different comic spoof and slant of JA's classic work.It is especially enjoyable for her many aficionados who have all of her novels and own film adaptations of them on DVD but also possess a sense of humour.I understand from IMDb.com there is to be a 2011 feature film based on "Lost in Austen" which me and my wife will undoubtedly want to see when it is released.It would be logical if this film portrayed Elizabeth coping with life in 2011 Hammersmith and for the viewers to see a mirror image of the plot brought forward to the present day as we only saw Gemma Arteton (Elizabeth) towards the end and briefly in the first episode setting the scene.I have awarded this miniseries 8/10.P.S.I thought Hugh Bonneville as MR B. especially entertaining.

Like so many others walking the earth; I am a Jane Austen fan. And like so many others; I have my favorites; of both the stories themselves, as well as the movies in which our film makers try to capture Ms. Austen's brilliance. And let's be honest, we can get a bit critical when it comes to the works of Ms. Austen; as we fans like to protect her. We are not always kind to the people behind (as well as those who are in front of) of the movie cameras.Well, I had the fortune of stumbling across this 'Lost in Austen' mini-series just last week and I truly enjoyed it. I think the concept is fantastic and fun as we watch how things get altered on the arrival of Ms. Price; and what she has to do in order to get our beloved 'Pride and Prejudice' back on track! Not an easy task. But ahhhh, when it is all said and done, to remain behind, in the arms of Darcy...tell me - who hasn't dreamt of that?! I can only hope that more 'Lost is Austen' programs are in the making and headed our way!
