What a pity. So much money spent on a ridiculously poor adaptation. I wonder if the script writers ever came within sniffing distance of Dickens' brilliant book. Characters wasted or left out, no hint of humour or the relationship between Joe and Pip. They might as well call this something else entirely. Don't let this team near another Dickens!!!

Began well, atmospheric marshes, the girl's abandonment by her mother and brother sensitively painted. Her growing up with the dangers of the wild environment and her abusive, often absentee father are gripping. Sadly the book degenerates as she begins her two relationships. The dialogue is not worthy of the general accolades the book has received
