I was surprised by how much I enjoyed this since period romances/chick flicks really aren't my thing. I've heard a little buzz about historically inaccurate design but I'm not familiar enough with the era to have noticed.
It's cute and inoffensive. The romances play out pretty well the same they do in the book. I did find the character of the youngest sister to be pretty underdeveloped. She becomes more of an accessory to the two main girls and their romance instead of her own character.
There are a few points in the middle where I could really feel the plot start to drag. The runtime certainly isn't short and some scenes could have been cut out.
It's supposed to get the same fame that 2005 Pride and Prejudice did and there are some scenes where you can really feel it. I appreciate the restraint it showed in the rain scenes (something Wuthering Heights refused to do) by letting the female characters have a second to themselves.
Overall, it's alright. I'm not the audience but it's worth a watch if you are.
