A fantastic adaptation of the source material. It has some differences but very well done. Love it
This was one of my guilty pleasure films back when I was in my early 20's and had a huge crush on Gwenyth Paltrow. Sick soundrack too.
Timeless romantic movie with one of the most heart-breaking soundtracks and plot of all time. Perfect to see when you feel blue.
Was a teenager when this came out and was obsessed with the soundtrack, which was better than the movie.
I've always loved the soundtrack for the trailer. Amazing song by Mono that perfectly suits it.
I've watched this film as a young fellow, and I didn’t like it, but now this felted different. Mr. Cuaron makes a beautiful movie.
Modern Dickens adaptation, wasn't a fan of it.
Peak 90’s cinema! Fire soundtrack and so many shots of heartbreak in the rain you’ll want to watch with a tissue and an umbrella handy.
A classic romantic story with a 90s edge. The soundtrack is great. Really love it
A shallow retreading of a novel filled with scope, featuring characters you can't root for
