WUTHERING HEIGHTS review - A Classic Tale of Love, Revenge, and Tragedy

By: Edgar Allan E. Yu 

Inspired by the 1847 Gothic novel, this latest adaptation of WUTHERING HEIGHTS is a cinematic experience that you simply can’t miss. At its heart, it’s a story of tumultuous love between Catherine and Heathcliff—two souls bound together by passion and torn apart by circumstance. The film captures their intense connection in a way that is both sexy and stylish, making every scene pulse with raw emotion. Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi deliver performances brimming with undeniable sexual chemistry, drawing you into their world from the very first moment.

Visually, WUTHERING HEIGHTS is nothing short of spectacular. The set designs are huge and extravagant; every room feels alive with gothic grandeur. Costume designs are equally lavish, enveloping the characters in period elegance while adding to the film’s overall sense of drama and tragedy. While it’s true that this adaptation takes creative liberties and doesn’t strictly follow the source material, it offers a fresh perspective on a classic tale.

If you’re looking for something gorgeous to watch this Valentine season—a movie that combines love, revenge, tragedy, and striking visuals—WUTHERING HEIGHTS delivers on all fronts. It’s an unforgettable experience that pays homage to its inspiration while carving out its own unique place in cinema history.

Experience award-winning cinema at its finest as “Hamnet,” Best Picture winner at the Golden Globes, and nominated for 8 Academy Awards, arrives exclusively at Ayala Malls Cinemas on February 18 Early Access screenings available on February 14

 

The critically acclaimed Golden Globe winner for Best Picture and eight-time Academy Award–nominated film HAMNET, directed by Academy Award winner Chloé Zhao, arrives exclusively at the home of award-winning films, Ayala Malls Cinemas, starting February 18, offering Philippine audiences the rare opportunity to experience one of the year’s most celebrated films on the big screen.

Hamnet, a powerful story that inspired Shakespeare’s timeless masterpiece Hamlet is written and directed by Academy Award winner Chloé Zhao, is based on Maggie O’Farrell’s award-winning novel of the same title, and stars Jessie Buckley, Paul Mescal, Emily Watson, and Joe Alwyn.

The film stands as one of the most recognized films of the awards season, nominated for Best Picture, Best Director (Chloé Zhao), Best Actress (Jessie Buckley), and major craft categories including Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Casting, Best Production Design, Best Costume Design, and Best Original Score. Hamnet has also won in two Golden Globes categories, with the film taking home the Best Motion Picture award in the drama category, and Jessie Buckley winning Best Performance by a Female Actor in a Motion Picture – Drama. Praised for its emotional depth, intimate storytelling, and masterful performances, Hamnet is the latest addition in Ayala Malls Cinemas exclusives, a collection of critically-acclaimed stories that spark emotion and discussion. 

Set in England in the late 16th century, Hamnet is the tale of legendary poet William Shakespeare and his wife Agnes. A love affair turns into a marriage and three children, and as Will sets off to London for a career in theater, Agnes is left to support the family alone. Their bond is tested as tragedy strikes, and as their once unshakeable foundation starts to crumble, the experience leads into the creation of Hamlet.

Ayala Malls Cinemas invites audiences to experience Hamnet within a sanctuary of cinematic artistry—where every frame in the period drama comes alive through superior digital projection. The film’s hauntingly beautiful original score unfolds in rich, immersive surround sound, wrapping viewers in its emotional embrace.

Films like Hamnet and more await as Ayala Malls Cinemas exclusives ensure there’s something for everyone, be it the latest in store or classics that deserve another period in the spotlight.

Producer Steven Spielberg is convinced that the story of Hamnet was in the best of hands with Chloé Zhao. “The beautiful and memorable storytelling in Maggie O’Farrell’s best-selling novel deserved to be brought to the screen by a filmmaker who would protect the material’s integrity and demonstrate an intuitive understanding of the emotional and complex journey that the characters—and the audience—take over the course of the story. There was only one director I knew who would bring Hamnet to the screen with such compassionate care, and that is Chloé Zhao,” says Spielberg. “In adapting the novel with Maggie, Chloé’s inherent humanity, unerring sense of narrative, and gift for getting remarkable performances infuse every frame of Hamnet”.
