Badly done, Emma, badly done," he admonished.
Another good film adaptation loosely based on "Emma" is "Clueless," updates the story to 20th century Beverly Hills.

And it's easily the best romantic comedy so far this year.
Wealthy, patrician, witty and more than a little self-absorbed, Emma decides to develop her inherent "gift" for matchmaking.

But on the whole, ``Emma'' is more likable and less precious than ``Clueless,'' last year's modern-day adaptation of ``Emma'' set in Los Angeles.
Emma has to grow up morally before she can be worthy of Knightley, and Northam has the right authority for the role.

Jeremy Northam as Knightley, the man who loves Emma in spite of herself, is a good mixture of kindness, propriety and humor.
Collette, too, though hardly a woman of outstanding beauty, has an inner intensity that negates the presence of the vapid Paltrow.

Austen's Emma is at turns whimsical, pretentious, kind-hearted
Despite my lack of Austen education, I found the film to be thoroughly engaging and surprisingly touching, so I can only imagine how pleased a true Austen-ite may be with Emma.
