Starring: Alicia Silverstone, Stacey Dash, Brittany Murphy, Paul Rudd
Running Time: 1h 37min
Heckerling gets everything right in this hilarious reworking of Jane Austen's Emma. The casting is perfect, in all aspects. The acting is thus perfect. The dialogue is delivered perfectly and the pacing is just brilliant and refreshing. Not in the MTV quick cutting style that Disney has tried to create recently. It just goes to show you what good can happen when a creative force like Heckerling gets a fair amount of control. On the other hand, poor Silverstone's character can't seem to get anything right in her attempts to fix all her friends' lives. She is perfect for this role, and may have a lot of difficulty trying to shake off the image that has come with it. With her talent it shouldn't be a problem. Instead of watching the show, buy this.
Grade: A-
