 Very light-hearted and some laugh out loud moments. April 17, 2007

A nice change from the usual heaviness of period drama's, I really enjoyed this.
Very light-hearted and some laugh out loud moments. Colin Firth and Rupert Everett work well together and form a funny double act.
I was surprised that I actually liked Reece Witherspoon in this as I usually find her a bit irritating.
Another great performance from Judi Dench, what period drama is complete without her!
Definately worth a watch.

I was not looking forward to this when it arrived. But wow! What a brilliant, clever, funny movie it is. I have never seen the play in theatre, but as a film it works wonderfully.
Reese Witherspoon is a revelation. I would defy anyone not to believe she is the quintessential English rose after watching this.
Bit different, but brilliant.
Rent it!
An entertaining romp faithful to Wilde's play July 31, 2006
Greg Farefield-Rose (Hertfordshire United Kingdom)
4 out of 6 found this review helpful
Merchant-Ivory-ish type period comedy starring Rupert Everett and Colin Firth as two young scoundrels who invent alter-egos to give them separate identities in London and the country.
The Importance Of Being Earnest is faithful to Oscar Wilde's intricate comic play of class and etiquette. It features Judi Dench, Anna Massey and others doyens of British acting and is a whimsical, entertaining romp. Not a classic but well worth seeing.
Excellent adaptation July 5, 2006
Catfish (Cambridge, UK)
5 out of 7 found this review helpful
This is a brilliant, witty satire of the superficiality of Victorian society, presented with a great deal of irony and humour. I bought the film with some hesitation, wondering what Reese Witherspoon is doing in a film the essence of which is Englishness - but she is perfect for the role of Cecily. Her accent is faultless, her mannerisms immaculate, and I can't imagine anyone else playing her obsession with pre-Raphaelite daydreams and diary entries with so much grace and innocence. The Rupert Everett - Colin Firth duet Lady Come Down is unforgettable (they actually DO sing it!), while Judi Dench as formidable Aunt Augusta delivers a stunning performance. I watched this film because of my interest in Oscar Wilde, but have made all my friends watch it since, and everyone loves it, so I am sure that even if you are not a big fan of adaptations of classics you will still thoroughly enjoy this one.
Simply brilliant April 23, 2006

This is a first-rate adaptation of this well-known Oscar Wilde play. All the leading roles are perfectly filled (well done to Reece Witherspoon - a much more convincing and less forced English accent that Rene Zellweger in Bridget Jones) and the comedy is never over played.
It is easy to forget how many timeless and well-known phrases have come from this one play, and hard to think that something written during Queen Victoria's reign can still be meaningfully funny in the 21st century!
Highly recommended!
