Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Do not waste your time with this adaptation of Emily Bronte's Wuthering Heights. I believe the author would most vehemently reject this adaptation as well. It is not true to the book and the screen writer took liberties with the story. It destroys the essence of the story. It begins more in the middle of the book and the characters are shallow. It's a confusing story as it jumps around and focuses on Heathcliff and Cathy characters which are unrecognizable from the characters in the novel. I am amazed when I read praises for this shallow, and cartoonish adaptation. If you want to see a good true to the story of Wuthering Heights - rent the 1998 Masterpiece Theatre with Matthew macfadyen as Hareton.Robert Cavanah and Orla Brady. That version is loyal to the book.

Did not like this adaption at all. Everything was wrong, sets, location, costumes and even the cast. Where was the chemistry between these two tragic lovers? Lost on the Moors, I guess, for it certainly was not there between the two leading cast members. Tom Hardy, was OK but something was lacking...charisma, screen presence, the ability to portray Heathcliff as a man with heart? He talent is wasted, for he is very good in Star Trek 2002 and Inception 2009. This Heathcliff is over the top with melodrama and desperate! I wish someone would tell him Cathy's married, get over it!And the actress who played Cathy, Charlotte Riley, needs to speak to her agent and fire him(or her). She would be great in something else rather than this. Cathy misfortunes and bleeding heart was painful to watch and I could not suppress joy, when she finally passed away on the TV.The ITV gives great period drama's but this rendition was not one of their finest. Maybe a better director, other than Coky Giedroyc, maybe an entire different cast or a better screen writer, whatever was missing from this production, this was truly terrible. It grieves me to admit I did watch the whole 2 episodes, sadly that's 142 minutes of my life I can never get back. So I give the one star point to the dark colored horse in the production, who looked simply stunning.

Heathcliff. Devil incarnate or a misunderstood man? Why not give Heathcliff the musical a try? I agree that there has yet to be a screen adaptation to the classic that lives up to the content of the novel. I would like to see this version but based on sexual situations won't because they are unnecessary. Cliff Richard's Heathcliff, though loosely based on the novel, was well done. I have read that there is another version of Wuthering Heights coming out in 2010. I hope it is much better. I wish I had studied this novel in school, but in Canada it is not available anywhere? Give Heathcliff the musical a try if you haven't already.
