Summary: I watched the series a number of times -- Wonderful!
Review: It is because of this series that I read Jane Austen to begin with - and Pride and Prejudice is just such a wonderful story!I found this adaptation to be completely faithful to the novel. Great acting, very funny and enlightening. I would not have expected that a novel like this could be faithfully portrayed on film, but they did a wonderful job. I especially liked Mrs. Bennet in this film, but really, all the actors were superb. The costumes and scenery were lovely, the dialogue witty, the story romantic. This is indeed a great "chick-flick" - I watched it with my 7 year old daughter, and the romantic-hearted girl is now a die-hard Austen fan as well. Very well done! Highly recommended to all romantically-inclined individuals.

Summary: Pride & Prejudice Special Edition
Review: The color in this DVD edition is awful - no peachy English complexions here! Another review commented on this color transfer loss but I thought it might be an anomale. How very disappointing to find that the DVD copy of my favorite show of all time is literally a pale, lacklustre version compared to my faithful VHS. Major bummer - the DVD can't be returned once opened!

Summary: Terrible transfer - complete color loss.
Review: What a shame that this wonderful film has been released with such a poor handling of color in the transfer! Where on earth was quality control? I've never seen anything so washed out! I had been waiting some time for this Special Edition so that I could view Pride & Prejudice in its widescreen format. Don't waste your money unless you're sure these errors have been corrected. I'm going to try to get my money back now.

Summary: Inspiring, beautiful...makes one starry-eyed
Review: This mini-series was probably the best leisure-time investment I've ever made. The acting was wonderful, the scenery beautiful, the work of Jane Austen inspiring. I could watch this again and again. Probably the ultimate classic "chick flick", it's perfect for a solitary evening with a glass of wine (or two...), a few tissues and has the ability to refresh you with its storyline and ending, giving you a kinder outlook on life.

Summary: Absolutely Captivating!
Review: Pride and Prejudice remains one of my favourite romance novels of all times and the movie version with Jennifer Ehle and Colin Firth was so well done that I was determined to own the DVD version. Needless to say I have watched it many, many times now and still enjoy every minute of it. The acting was brilliant especially by Jennifer Ehle and Colin Firth and the script was very much in accordance to Jane Austen's book which was very pleasing to see. I only wished there were many more scenes where Darcy and Elizabeth could be seen together. I also enjoyed the extra features on the DVD but was disappointed to see there was no interview with Jennifer and Colin. To sum it up, it is a must own for someone who loves Jane Austen esp. P&P!

Summary: I could watch this movie over and over and over...
Review: A friend of mine told me a few years ago that I would love this movie since I have enjoyed other films such as Emma (w/ Gwyneth Paltrow), Sense & Sensibility (w/ Emma Thompson), and Mansfield Park. So, when I saw it on A&E as a remastered DVD edition, I decided to buy it from Amazon. And I love this movie! I have only had it for a little over a week and have watched it twice already! The dialogue, the actors, the costumes, the settings, everything is wonderful. The only reason I give it four stars is that I hoped they would add more extras to the DVD menu. I found nothing wrong with the color or sound as some reviewers mentioned. In fact, I could hear a clock ticking in the background (not my clock, one in the movie) in a few scenes. I highly recommend this movie if you're a fan of movies based on Jane Austen's wonderful stories. You'll love it! Just make sure you can set aside time for weekly viewings since watching it just once isn't enough! : )

Summary: Avoid the DVD
Review: I must second the other reviewer who noted how terribly washed out the color is on the DVD. Very disappointing! Stick with the VHS.

Summary: Bad DVD, colors are terrible
Review: This has to be a mistake/a defective DVD. The colors are very messed-up. They are so washed out, faces appear to be white, very white, not flesh colored at all. I want my money back!!!

Summary: Bad Transfer-Colors are washed out.
Review: I had been waiting to get this DVD because it was supposed to be such a good edition. I am sorry that I gave away my video set, because there is something wrong with this transfer/remastered edition. The colors are so washed out, that in some cases the faces are white, really white. I believe I will seek to get my money back if I can. Very disappointing.

Summary: Great movie ruined by terrible transfer
Review: I was so pleased to learn of the re-release of P&P in a widescreen (Special Edition) version. I once owned the laser disc boxed set, and sold that when the full screen version became available on DVD. I have just watched the latest version on DVD and was so disappointed by its transfer, I was prompted to do a scene-for-scene comparison with the earlier DVD release. Opening titles are OK, but after that, the difference is astonishing. Some scenes have a green cast, otherwise the colours are generally washed out, with loss or degradation of flesh tones. There is also a general loss of detail. The aspect ratio appears to be 1.85, not 2.35, as stated on the cover. I hope the studio will do something about this and recall the product ASAP. Such a shame because this version of P&P was an outstanding production, deserving to be collected and frequently enjoyed.
