Reviews


89
Austin Chronicle - Unnamed
Despite my lack of Austen education, I found the film to be thoroughly engaging and surprisingly touching, so I can only imagine how pleased a true Austen-ite may be with Emma.
88
Rolling Stone - Peter Travers
McGrath's script is faithful: fierce when it needs to be and devilishly funny.
80
The New York Times - Elvis Mitchell
Gwyneth Paltrow makes a resplendent Emma, gliding through the film with an elegance and patrician wit that bring the young Katharine Hepburn to mind.
75
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert
Yet in its high spirits and wicked good humor, Emma is a delightful film--second only to "Persuasion" among the modern Austen movies, and funnier, if not so insightful.
75
ReelViews - James Berardinelli
Emma lacks the depth of passion present in the other Austen films, but, in large part because it's trying for something lighter and breezier, it's still fun.
