Added: While his personality is quite accurate, his backstory is quite not accurate because from the novel, Jekyll himself described that he created Hyde because he wanted to try indulging himself in "sinful" deeds, but unable to do so because of his social status. What he didn't expected is that Hyde turns out to be a violent sociopath.

Maybe the reason he can't quite control Hyde now is taken from the last bits of his novel, where in the end his potion can no longer work and Hyde starts to manifests even without potion/in waking hours. Jekyll realizes in the end that he's going to permanently become Hyde, and he wonders whether Hyde will kill himself or turn himself to trial if it were to happen.
