Pride and Prejudice and Zombies Reviews
This isn’t a throwaway movie. Despite its issues, it is still fun and manages to be more entertaining than it had any right to be.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 24, 2022
Exploits our culture's current obsession with zombies, but it lacks the winking charm hinted upon with its title.
| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Apr 22, 2022
Seth Grahame-Smith's novel brings a modern classic bang up to date while always maintaining respect for the original material, and it looks as though this adaptation will do it justice.

Makes the best of its one joke, the mashup of Austen romantic fiction with zombie realism, deftly (and ridiculously) blending the sublime with the ultraviolent.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Feb 3, 2021
What could have potentially turned into an awfully overdone film, turned into a thoroughly enjoyable thrill ride that is no short of laughs.

The sharp repartee of Austen's characters transcends the mediocrity of merely alternating zombie bloodshed with costume drama routines.
| Original Score: 7/10 | Dec 5, 2020
Pride and Prejudice and Zombies is just the sort of goofy fun that the title implies.

The biggest problem with the movie is that the very delicately crafted PG-13 level blood and gore keeps things from really becoming interesting.
| Original Score: 5 | Feb 24, 2020
It is a shambling mound of undead intellectual property grimly stomping its way through the world, devouring all dumb money in its path.

Bloody delicious!

As a film, it's still amusing, though likely to resonate better with Team Austen than Team Undead.

Whether it the best alt-version of Pride and Prejudice is up for argument but one thing is for sure. The Bennett girls have never been more badass.

The romance is heartless, the plot is brainless, and the action is gutless - Pride and Prejudice and Zombies survives purely on its spine.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Apr 17, 2019
It's silly but also creative and doesn't take itself too seriously.
| Original Score: B | Apr 15, 2019
An excruciatingly long and tepid 107 minutes, a hollow pastiche of both the costume drama and the zombie movie.
| Original Score: 1/5 | Apr 8, 2019
The inclusion of zombies doesn't make it a kick-ass tale of love and is ultimately a disappointing new take on Jane Austen's novel.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Apr 5, 2019
It's silly and over the top, for sure, but I really, really liked it. Also, even if you've read the book there will still be some surprises!

There's a balance to be struck between respecting the integrity of Pride and Prejudice while having fun with the wacky experiment of throwing zombies into the mix, and Steers' attempt is decidedly wobbly.
| Original Score: 6.5/10 | Feb 22, 2019
It's a fun movie that lends a wonderfully weird new energy to a literary classic.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Feb 20, 2019
The many plot strands the script tries to weave together get so horrifically tangled they choke the humor out of any given situation.
