Acerca de esta película

Jane Hayes's (Keri Russell, TV's "The Americans") adoration of all things Jane Austen is complicating her love life: no real man can compare with the brooding and handsome character Mr. Darcy. Determined to be the heroine of her own story, Jane spends her life savings on a trip to Austenland, an eccentric resort in the English countryside where guests experience complete immersion in the Regency era. Armed with her bonnet, corset and needlepoint, Jane strives to avoid spinsterhood and meets two very different gentlemen... but has a difficult time determining where fantasy ends and real life—and maybe even love—begins. Jennifer Coolidge (Legally Blonde franchise), Jane Seymour (Wedding Crashers), JJ Feild (Captain America: The First Avenger) and Bret McKenzie (TV's "The Flight of the Conchords") also star in this charming romantic comedy based on the bestselling novel by Shannon Hale.

It seems people here have either given it 5 stars or 1 - so I have opted for 5. I'd probably give it 4, but it is worth a lift. The plot is outlandish, quite clever and at the end you don't know quite who is talking the truth. Ridiculous really - but people go to health farms, so why not go to Austenland. The real star is Jennifer Coolidge, who steals the show with her brash vulgarity, a must watch. The shot of her doing needlepoint is not one to be forgotten quickly. All the other actors, however, do their parts well. Not the deepest, not the funniest, but worth a watch.

This film is the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen in my life. I can't believe I paid £8 for it. It's silly, there is no serious plot to it, it's so bad I can't find words to describe it. I'm so disappointed I could cry right now.

Love this film. It may be silly in places but that is what makes it great. Perfect lightweight watching for a lazy afternoon.
