Any quick reviews on this film folks? Me and the ladyfriend may be going to see it this weekend. The tagline is intreguing(sp) and for once, Kiera actually looks attractive.

But, is it actually a good film? Or am I going to want to shoot myself in the foot for agreeing to go and watch Pride'n'Predj' II?

Jesus, Heskey, are you deliberately trying to piss me off today?

Specsavers. Now.

Likewise, are you stalking me today?! rofl

Question; are you telling me to go to specsavers because I've implied she's not attractive, or for saying it's possible for her to look attractive?

By-the-by, incidently I had an eyetest on Saturday afternoon, I'm 100% fine; infact my right eye is long-sighted and slightly telescopic. Coolies!

I've seen the TV trailer with her back to camera and she turns round as the voice over says "Kiera Knightly is.......The Duchess"

Sounded like some kind of 18th Century Superhero. Is she Atkins-Woman or Bullimia Girl?


I'd rather chew my own foot off than see that.

Not seen any adverts to be fair, just the poster everywhere. Maybe I'm being too hasty? If so, decent film recommendations for this week please!

it's poor and she's not attractive

we saw it last weekend -- sumptious looking film but Rafe Fiennes is a plank (even more so than the role demands) and Keira just looks like a skinny model playing dress up

now the other actress playing Rafe's bit on the side...! she was much better

With you on that, FWD. My assessment is that it's a chick-flick extraordinaire. Miss Knightley seems to be specialising in 'em at the moment.

My mum will want me to take her to see this, will I need to be doped up first to get through it or is it ok?
