Leonard Maltin gave this a 4 out of 4. I didn't think it was a masterpiece though. I thought it was all right. I'm reading the book which is why I'm not that thrilled at the adaptation. There are two romances in the book. Kitty and Levin's might be more ordinary but I've grown to love those characters. It's too bad that every movie version of Anna Karenina just tosses them to the side. The good thing about this movie is that Anna Karenina is well cast with Greta Garbo in the role. She does a great job as the doomed heroine.
