DBConIMDB Well constructed, acted and filmed. Farcical, funny, very well referenced and not in any way to be taken seriously! I suspect that it doesn't translate well, which may explain some of the bad reviews but it's up there in the best tradition of British farce. An excellent film.

srdjan_veljkovic Putting the somewhat silly and naive P&P into zombie-land seems even more silly. But, they do follow through on this premise until the end. It kind of works. Story is somewhat "watered-down", but, it's still there. And there are zombies! :)There are some good jokes in there, which actually makes this pass the bar of acceptable. Without it, this whole exercise would have seemed rather pointless.I believe it would have been better if they explored more the very silly notion that zombies are so popular in this age and made more fun of the genre.The feminist element is not too much. Sure, it's silly that 5 girls do a better job of fighting the undead than a trained army of men, because, you know, they studied in China. But, it's not like the men simply get tossed around by zombies and the girls toss the zombies around.Other than that, Lily James is well cast as the main character and it's interesting that they even explore this - Darcy says "she's pretty but not too pretty, has masculine features but is still feminine", though it didn't get much comedic effect, so it kind of fell into the "insulting the viewers intelligence" category.The rest of the cast do a decent job, with the Mother overacting a bit and the Father actually underacting and Lena Headley is somewhat underused, but such is her part.Bottom line, it is an interesting and somewhat funny movie, worth a watch.

Claudia isabelle So, where to begin. I love the story from Pride and prejudice I think it is one of the greatest love stories so elegant and charismatic but yet....in this case you just stare and wonder... how on earth did anyone had such an insane idea to mix together Pride and prejudice with Resident Evil? I basically watched the movie because I love the storyline from pride and prejudice and I want to see all ecranisations and also read the book 3 times but as far as this movie I will only recommend if you wanna have a good laugh and then give yourself a slap in the face that you actually saw it. There are some things that don't make any sense and the story moves so fast, boom now you are at the ball now you are in the middle of the battlefield and so on. But it doesn't make much sense this movie and I believe that his purpose was to be a Twilight parody with zombies than an actually romance action SF movie. Horror is an overstatement , because the horror part is that they keep show disfigured people and they keep cut their head off, so there is not for small kids but still horror is to much said, is a chick zombie flick :))

Leofwine_draca PRIDE AND PREJUDICE AND ZOMBIES is undoubtedly a bad idea for a movie, a blackly comic misfire that misses the mark time and time again. The story is to take the essence of the Jane Austen novel and add a zombie apocalypse to the mix. I thought this was a ludicrous idea when the book came out and now, having seen the film version, I can confirm that I was right.The film's idea is to basically play out the plot of the original story but add zombies into the background of every scene. The zombie effects typically incorporate cheap-looking CGI while the action sequences are mishandled by the American director, who has no feel for his material.The only decent thing about this film are the presence of a handful of supporting actors such as Charles Dance, Jack Huston, and Lena Headey who do their best to make the whole thing bearable, but their efforts are in vain. Whether it's the miscast lead - Lily James, one of those pretty faces with nothing behind it - or Sam Riley's weirdly gruff accent, PRIDE AND PREJUDICE AND ZOMBIES is an embarrassment all round.
