I love the premise of someone from the modern world, who has read the book, finding themselves in the midst of their favourite book. I first saw the same premise in a BBC miniseries Lost in Austen, which did a superb job with it. This movie starts off similarly, but unfortunately makes too many choices for the characters in the book that are pretty out of character. I particularly did not like what they did with the two main characters (Liz and Darcy). It just didn't seem like the writers really understood these characters at all.
But if you want a better version of a similar premise, navigate to Lost in Austen. I can't recommend that enough.
All in all, if you don't already know the original books, you might enjoy this. If you do, I'd suggest watching something else.
