Anna Karenina (Blu-ray Disc)
Disc was great, quality terrific, though I still can't understand what the heck an "Ultraviolet Digital Copy" means. Why would I want a copy in any format of the DVD I already purchased? Oh well, maybe I'm just too old for this. Yes, all the above was fine; I just didn't care for the movie. Great cast, but so-so otherwise. That's why I gave it four stars.

A good watch, not great
I bought this movie based on my wife's interest in Pride & Prejudice, as this was advertised to be similar. It was only slightly similar. The period was the same, the story had some slight similarities, the acting was great. The shooting style was strange, different, sometimes bizarre, and almost always distracting from the story. I am sure some people will praise the genius of the cinematographer and director, but my wife and I just kept saying "Huh?". I would have fully enjoyed the movie if it was filmed in a traditional fashion. In the end, it is worth watching once, it's not a movie I would ever want to see twice.

My daughter loved it.
I was walking through our neighborhood Best Buy looking for another type of DVD but saw this and thought of my daughter who loves movies from another era. This was a semi-historical movie whose characters were interesting and held our attention. It was an inexpensive movie that was well worth it's low price.

A very good depiction of Tolstoy's book
Keira Knightly plays Anna Karenina in this flick and does it creditably but not superbly. While she is a fine actress the role, in my opinion, required someone with more emotion for the role in keeping with the magnificent novel. It is still a fine movie but slightly flawed.
