A beautiful masterpiece
Jane Eyre is a masterpiece because of its Gothic fairytale feel in the atmosphere of Thornfield and its strong, complex characters including the quiet, independent Jane and Rochester who was dark and moody yet longing for companionship. Even though I give it A+ it tends to be wordy and drag at the end espically the scenes with St. John Rivers. Despite all that Jane Eyre is a beautiful complex story worth reading.

This film made me actually like Jane Eyre. Basically, the book Jane Eyre is the bane of my existence, and I've done numerous boring reports on it. BUT, I figured I'd give this adaptation a try, since I love both Michael Fassbender and Mia Wasikowska.
The film was actually engaging and interesting, and I can watch it over and over again. I feel as though it's a good adaptation, and, if it got me to actually like the story, it did it's job.
