PREDICTABLE The Inheritance It's made for T.V. and that should give you pause. There is no spark in the romance and it's a predictable and boring story line. I've seen it before in all of Jane Austin's work, only done much better by better actors. Don't bother.
The Inheritance I really loved this movie. It was well done with and "Austenish" feel to it. I recommend to anyone who like movies from this era.
Heartwarming and noble I really enjoyed this movie so much. It had a good storyline, if a little predictable. I loved watching these great actors. There were noble characters and it was a great escape to the past. Quite a pleasant change from the foul stuff you see on the screen today...such as Mamma Mia, which was quite a disappointment to me. I urge you to buy it and enjoy a pleasant and heart warming story with humor!
Definitely NOT a great period piece I bought this film solely on the strength of the reviews on Amazon and was VERY DISAPPOINTED! The acting is extremely poor and the story line is predictable and juvenile. I would compare this movie to a bad Little House on the Prairie episode. It is definitely not in the same category as other period pieces such as North and South, Pride and Prejudice, or other films based on excellent novels. Do yourself a favor and watch an excellent period piece for the second time and skip this one completely.
Period American Story After watching many British period stories, it is refreshing to finally see a good American period story. Enjoyed this greatly!
