Our take

Two years after Fish Tank, Michael Fassbender cemented his leading-man status with Cary Fukunaga’s eerily atmospheric adaptation of Charlotte Brontë’s gothic masterpiece. With a remarkable Mia Wasikowska in the title role, Jane Eyre exposes the beating heart of a smouldering romantic classic.
