Review of Sense and Sensibility (1995) by Maresia L — 21 Dec 2009
Never loose hope; never back out of a second chance. That could be this movie's message, which follows a screenplay based off of Jane Austin's book of romance and trust. Yep, romance takes a huge roll in this film, and its conflict wrapped up in it.
Set in the 19th century in England, the film runs on conversations and facial expressions to create its impact on the audiance, which can be said that it does this moderately well. There're enough characters to create on each one of them an involved description on their mood and background, and the surprises that we learn about them during the film makes them stand out as special indivisuals.
Simply put, the characterization was done well. Nonetheless, in terms of the film's flow, a lot of it felt pretty cheap. Scenes that built the foundation of the story should've been detailed more, and a few other hilighted scenes in the movie make you feel that you've been ripped off.
Still, that doesn't mean this film will dissapoint a good romantic story. Besides those few scenes that felt edgy and empty, "Sense and Sensibility" doesn't fail on the romantic side of it that creates its moral, which is something to consider.
