A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

I admit this story will make the heart of anyone who watches melt. The way Jane Eyre tells the story of a woman who lived in misery all her life and how Rochester is portrayed as a cold but intimidating man, looking rude but caring. If you are looking for sadness in this movie, YOU WILL NOT GET IT. But when you are looking for a classic romance story wrapped with a real problem of a poor woman with a rich man then you are in the right place.The very right story is spent in my spare time or holiday, I really do not regret my day by watching this. Their way of their gazing and the way they express feelings will take you through time, how Jane who craves happiness, turns up in an unexpected time. Always full of what Rochester is thinking.Unfortunately, I did not get too much emotion of grief from Mia Wasikowka, her way of portraying the sadness of lessening my feelings when I saw her

OK so I watched this movie in English and it didn't make any sense, the story is really boring I mean every minute is another 60 seconds of monotony. I know a lot of you arrogant English scholars and pretentious hipsters aren't going to like this but this was just awful, the story is too confusing, she starts off as a kid and then is taken to some priests house and then there's a time skip. at this point it gets really boring and confusing, she becomes a teacher but then she quits or something like that, then she is working at Micheal Fassbenders house and its all good, then there's a fire (with NO explanation to why there is a fire I might add) and then Fassbender is about to marry the main character but it turns out he already has a wife, and his wife appears in the movie for about 2 minutes and is never heard from again. then they are in a field and there's a character called St David (not the saint of wales) is calling for her and she runs off, then the house is destroyed and a maid's ghost is there then Fassbender is blind and she looks at him and the movie cuts to black. That plot made no sense whatsoever. Everyone in my class agreed it was terrible. This film made it to the top 5000 how did it do that? The story is terrible, the acting is bland, the dialogue switches from 18th century English to 21st century English way to much. There are too many time-skips, half the events are just filler, the only fun I had watching this movie was making fun of it with my friends about how bad it was. Do not watch it

I could rate it a 6 but gave it a 7. This movie started kinda OK. It was enjoyable and well made. Then, after a while I honestly got bored. This movie went a bit too slowly. It wasn't "juicy" enough, it didn't flow as well as I would have liked either. The side stories of young Jane and of Jane at St. John's house, weren't woven into the main story well enough. But they were interesting stories. The vibe of the movie also isn't something after my own heart, but I can see how female (and male) romantic and "scholary" audience might enjoy this much more than I did. The last part of the movie (40 minutes or so) was twice as good as the rest of the movie! Ultimately the last scene was very beautiful and memorable! So, overall I have to say a good quality movie, but not one of the great ones on my list. Real rating: 7.5MY RATING SYSTEM:9.4 - 10 = rating 10 ***** 8.8 - 9.3 = rating 9 ***** 8.2 - 8.7 = rating 8 ***** 7.5 - 8.1 = rating 76.7 - 7.4 = 6 6.0 - 6.6 = 5 5.0 - 5.9 = 4 4.0 - 4.9 = 3 3.0 - 3.9 = 2 1.0 - 2.9 = 1

Charlotte Brontë's Jane Eyre provides a catharsis for love and romance in its pure and concentrated form. It is nearly impossible to portray it fully in a movie of 2 hours. Cary Fukunaga (The Director) has done a very good job considering these difficulties.The casting of Mia Wasikowska (Jane Eyre) and Michael Fassbender (Edward Rochester) are appropriate. Mia's subtle expressions of yearning, love and despair are beautiful. I cannot think of a better actress than Mia to play the role of Jane Eyre. Though Michael Fassbender does not fit Brontë's description of a manly and not-so- handsome figure, he does a perfect portrayal of Rochester's character otherwise. Jamie Bell's performance seems to be dwarfed by the acting of the two lead actors, which is otherwise a decent performance.The ending of the movie, in my opinion was a bit abrupt – considering the way it is narrated in the novel.Overall this movie is one of the best adaptations of classical literature I have seen.10 out of 10.
