Although [Kate] Beckinsale hasn't much romantic chemistry with [Mark] Strong at a point late in the story when she should have, she is irresistible.

Los Angeles Times
...The cast is close to perfect...Austen's language is a pleasure in itself...Hearing it spoken by an ensemble of actors fully alive to its rhythms, sense and wit is another one...
Sight and Sound
[Kate] Beckinsale is well supported by the rest of the cast, especially Mark Strong as Knightley and Prunella Scales as the chattering spinster Emma unkindly insults.

Washington Post
Perhaps it is a function of a television budget, but [Andrew] Davies and [Sue] Birtwistle, with director Diarmuid Lawrence, opt not for postcard lavishness but for simple clarity of presentation.

Chicago Tribune
It is understated and sly, loaded with a sense that even a society as well-ordered as Emma's leaves plenty of room for comic misjudgments and happy endings.

...As always, it is undeniably pleasant to be in Jane Austen's comfortable world....A clever film...
Los Angeles Times
Rating: A --
Emma, as adapted by Andrew Davies, captures not just Austen's light charm but the pinpricks of her social criticism.
