"Make sure you turn off the lights and get your coziest blanket before you settle in to watch this wonderful period piece. No one writes better about the dark side of london than charles dickens and this adaptation of his bleak house is the best. It has everything anyone who loves dickens is looking for~ great love story,villans,mysteries, money and orphans. The story will grab your attention from the beginning and not let go until the 8 hour mini series is over. Watch it now and own it later you will not be sorry."
"This is a new version that just recently got released. These new boxsets don't have any of the special features that were included with the original version of the DVD boxsets; these new DVD sets only have the episodes."
"It's a movie about teenager friendship. Sad ending with an awkward attempt to send an uplifting message. Decent acting, GREAT music!
Yes, it's a feel-good movie.
Yes, it has a predicatable plot.
Yes, it's unapologetically sentimental.
Yes, the knights on horseback scenes are extremely annoying.
And yes, I was deeply moved by the movie. I just couldn't help it. (This is from a 30+ old guy who sit through Titanic and couldn't stop wondering what all the fuss was about.)
