Moviegoers are saying
Austen fans are split between swooning over the yearning and sharp wit of Sense and Sensibility and grumbling about a slow start and a Edward Ferrars who has the "communication energy of a locked PDF." The sister bond gets the warmest praise ("she's the sense to my sensibility"), and the film works best as a girls' night or date-night pick for those who love period-drama feelings. Expect a divisive but emotionally committed crowd.

Bolstered by strong performances, this handsome but derivative take is a little bloodless, with Austen’s sharp wit sanded down to fit a more romantic mould.

By centering the relationship between Elinor and Marianne, the latest edition of Sense and Sensibility is a fresh spin on a classic for a new generation.
