Atom User Reviews
For those in love with Austen, Bronte, and Bridgerton---see this movie! It is sweet and funny, the characters very engaging and genuine. Will see again!
A must see for any regency romance fan!
Metacritic
Mr Malcolm’s List plays like Jane Austen fan-fiction, which isn’t the worst subgenre in the world, even if nobody could ever confuse the plot with that of Lady Susan, let alone Pride and Prejudice.
It’s a pleasant enough diversion, that will likely be best remembered for colorblind casting done right.
What is here –a good if not “all star” cast, colorful characters, the settings and the story — has charm enough to get by even if no one will ever confuse Mr. Malcolm’s List for “Sense Sensibility.”
