This Emma is light, airy and modern -- surely Austen's funniest work.

While Sense and Sensibility loves subtlety, silence, and space, and Persuasion loves realism, repression, and understatement, Emma loves its star Gwyneth Paltrow and all the colorful scenes she inhabits.

McGrath pokes gentle fun at the over-refinements of privileged gentility, though not without enjoying its trappings and honoring its best aspirations.

Gwyneth Paltrow makes a resplendent Emma, gliding through the film with an elegance and patrician wit that bring the young Katharine Hepburn to mind.

A good Jane Austen adaptation that can be watched over and over.

Fun, but pales next to the previous year's Clueless.

Although it is a very fine film, I found the pace a little slow in places as it wandered off the mark.

Slightly fun, but really boring.
