typical of MTV
this movie is not, and i repeat, not a good version of the book. if you haven't read the book, you'd probably think it rocks, but then that's your opinion.
i have to admit that Chris Masterson looked pretty good playing Edward Linton, but i think that they overdid Heath's part a tad bit. and because it's MTV making this movie, there are a bit of intimate parts in here. Plus, personally, i didn't like the ending.

blah
i was excited to see this movie because i had seen the commercials for it throughout the weeks but once i saw it, it was a disappointment. i never read the book but i'm sure that the book has to be better than this poor adaptation. is it so wrong that i cheered at what happened to cate at the end of the movie?
how to get the "crumble" song
For anyone looking for the "I Will Crumble" song , it was originally done by Hewitt Huntwork and it's easily downloaded! I liked this song a lot, along w/ Erika Christensen's part on "More." But I must say that I wished they would have spent a little more time on character development...it seemed as if Mike Vogel's "Heath" was extra intense for no reason, whereas in the book you really got to see why Heathcliffe and Catherine felt like one person...when "Kate" was talking about that in the Linton bedroom, I didn't think it was very believable based on what had been shown...it definitely could've been better...but this "I Will Crumble" song is still in my head...it is such a pretty song and it wholly encompasses the relationship of Heathcliffe and Catherine...if only MTV could have portrayed that w/ Heath and Kate, who ended up just looking like unchaperoned, lust-filled teens
Modern beachy take on the material leaves a mess
MTV does the Emily Brontë novel in a beachy rocking take on the material. One day, Cate and Hendrix's father (John Doe) brings home their new adopted brother Heath. Cate (Erika Christensen) and Heath (Mike Vogel) would fall in love. Hendrix (Johnny Whitworth) is an angry young man who hates Heath. When their father dies, Hendrix takes over and drive Heath away. Cate has a car accident and is rescued by wealthy neighbor Edward (Christopher Masterson). Edward's conniving sister Isabel (Katherine Heigl) schemes to break apart Cate and Heath keeping Heath to herself. Cate would marry Edward. Heath becomes a rich rock star and his return causes havoc.
The acting is laughable for the most part. Erika Christensen is the only good part of this movie. Mike Vogel could be a passable douche but he's a horrible Heath(cliff). He overacts in every scene yelling and screaming. He just doesn't have the charisma. The production is acceptable for a TV movie. The music ranges from uninspired to horrible. The movie aspires to be so much more but ends up being a weak young adult melodrama. It's an experiment gone wrong.

If A Migraine Was Interpreted Into A Film...
Wow what a mess! Incredibly awful loud 90s type bad unknown rock soundtrack playing through over the whole movie. Terrible script and bad acting from some well known and usually good actors. It wasn't their fault. Low budget, poorly written and directed headache inducing mess.
Even if you pretend it's not an adaption of Wuthering Heights, the diabolical noise throughout makes you scream for the mute button. I was wondering if it was originally a music video that they shot 90 minutes of footage for and they added talking to it and decided to throw a load of scenes together and call it a movie. That's what it felt like. I only finished watching it because it cost me 2.50 to rent.
