I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Just what I expected

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

Whatever story the filmmakers were trying to tell here, it had nothing at all to do with Wuthering Heights. I can't even review it as an adaptation because this film is as far removed from Emily Brontë's book as the moon is from a wheel of cheese. Sadly, it also made for a numbingly boring film experience in its own right. It was, for me, a colossal waste of time. Squandering the two hour runtime on pointless navel-gazing was perhaps the biggest crime when other adaptions have made do with less to wrap up the story of both generations. I wouldn't say Heathcliff being black was true to the book, but in my mind it's neither more nor less wrong than Ralph Fiennes or Tom Hardy, who are about as far from 'dark' as anyone can get. It would have been a nice change if they hadn't insisted on changing the entire focus of the story because of it. Viewers who enjoy pretentious art films with shaky camera work, lack of dialogue and gratuitous zoom-ins on random objects may get a kick out of this one, but anyone who came for Wuthering Heights better steer clear.

I didn't like this adaption of Wuthering Heights and the only saving grace for me was Shannon Beer playing the young Cathy. In some scenes you could see her wilful mischievous demeanour.I couldn't see any bonding between the main characters, and Heathcliff was too moody. I couldn't see how Cathy would fall in love with this person.

Dull and confusing version of the Emily Bronte classic, despite attempting to make it more edgy. Starts quite slowly, and vaguely, hits its stride in the middle, and falls apart at the end. The edginess is about the only positive, but it does feel like a hard slog to get through.Kaya Scodelario is OK as (the older) Cathy but James Howson is unconvincing as (older) Heathcliff and contributes greatly to the dullness of the movie. And, hey, where was the Kate Bush soundtrack? That was what I was looking forward to most...

So I already warned you about my review could bee containing spoiler of some type. Therefore be aware!I know every artist should enjoy the artistic freedom, but am sorry I couldn't enjoy this movie ... First of all the movie is too long. Those two hours of nothing happening made me sleepy. It is more of a documentary type of a film than some real film genre. The characters are nothing like the original Wuthering heights characters and it is such a shame that Hitcliff was turned into love sick boy turned into a necrophiliac. The story is just some dark version of Romeo and Juliet. I haven't seen a picture that could resemble Wuthering Heights.Honestly speaking I am not able to recommend this movie to anyone. Maybe I may be accused of not understanding artistic freedom and such, but the movie did not fulfill my expectations.
