I saw the new Emma at the cinema and enjoyed it. It was colourful with such beautiful details with costumes, houses etc. Though I did get thrown from the film when one of the outdoor scenes was set at Beamish Museum, a place I know well.

I did find Emma herself very unlikeable at times, but that's the character and to be expected really. I know a lot of reviews after mentioned the bum baring scenes, and I get why as months later, they're some of the details that have stuck in my head.

I was impressed with Miranda, yeah, she is played for comic effect at times, but she also shows utter shock and betrayal well later in the film.

So yeah, I really liked it, James was bored stiff, but it's really not the kind of film he likes so that wasn't surprising.
