Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
Bessie Smyth Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.
Kayden This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama
cinemajesty Film Review: "Jane Eyre" (2011)After an impressive first feature "Sin Nombre" directed by Cary Fukunaga releasing on Sundance Film Festival in January 2009, comes this following up picture based on several-times adapted content of Charlotte Brontë novel "Jane Eyre" from 1847 on the story of an handmaiden, falling for a man of property, who she works for; beautifully shot by cinematographer Adriano Goldman from sunny to stormy on-location countrysides in England, setting the mood for atmospheric classic drama led by actress Mia Masikowska, who portrays the character of Jane Eyre with dignity, but is unable to find a break-out scene of desperation, in which she might have been shown her dramatic qualities at an early age of twenty-one. Nevertheless the supporting cast, including Dame Judi Dench as Mrs. Fairfax, Michael Fassbender as Rochester and further Sally Hawkins as Mrs. Reed, Jamie Bell as John Rivers roundup well-designed sets, transcending mystery and desire with an elegantly editorial by Melanie Oliver, which keeps its pace over 110 Minutes to non-surprise feel good ending.© 2017 Felix Alexander Dausend (Cinemajesty Entertainments LLC)
Mihai Toma After a woman with a tortured childhood but with exquisite education finds work as a governess for a young French girl, she meets the master of the mansion where she was supposed to live, a man with a troubled past of his own. Although from opposite social positions, a bond begins to form between the two but their respective pasts are about to play a decisive role in their near future.It's a dramatic story which shows two apparently different people whose destinies collide for the good or the worst. The story is fascinating, although slow paced, being presented in a series of intertwined sequences from the past, present of future, drawing you into its old world, with magnificent scenery, making you care about the characters.The actors' performance is also noticeable, excellent I must say, making their characters credible. The only drawbacks are represented by the slow course of actions and some questionable decisions made by the main characters, but they are not significant enough to spoil the overall impression left by this movie.
emmaeaton-62577 I felt that this was the best Jane Eyre adaption I've seen. It portrayed the characters well (except that Rochester was more attractive than described in the book) and the acting was quite good. It left out a few important characters and plot revelations and added some Hollywood theme, but overall it was pretty accurate. They did a great job of generalizing the important parts of the book and making the plot flow. Overall, would recommend. I liked Rochester better in the movie than in the book. Even if you don't like historical fiction, I would try to watch it.
wes andrew OK so I watched this movie in English and it didn't make any sense, the story is really boring I mean every minute is another 60 seconds of monotony. I know a lot of you arrogant English scholars and pretentious hipsters aren't going to like this but this was just awful, the story is too confusing, she starts off as a kid and then is taken to some priests house and then there's a time skip. at this point it gets really boring and confusing, she becomes a teacher but then she quits or something like that, then she is working at Micheal Fassbenders house and its all good, then there's a fire (with NO explanation to why there is a fire I might add) and then Fassbender is about to marry the main character but it turns out he already has a wife, and his wife appears in the movie for about 2 minutes and is never heard from again. then they are in a field and there's a character called St David (not the saint of wales) is calling for her and she runs off, then the house is destroyed and a maid's ghost is there then Fassbender is blind and she looks at him and the movie cuts to black. That plot made no sense whatsoever. Everyone in my class agreed it was terrible. This film made it to the top 5000 how did it do that? The story is terrible, the acting is bland, the dialogue switches from 18th century English to 21st century English way to much. There are too many time-skips, half the events are just filler, the only fun I had watching this movie was making fun of it with my friends about how bad it was. Do not watch it
