A near-flawless stroke of genius by one of the best directors working in cinema today -- Guillermo Del Toro's FRANKENSTEIN, a long gestating passion project is a gothic masterpiece that celebrates its literary origins while offering viewers a sumptuous, Victorian period-piece that both horrifies and fascinates. Del Toro's cast -- Oscar Isaac's Victor Frankenstein, Jacob Elordi's The Creature, Christoph Waltz's …

"Frankenstein", Mary Shelly's epic work, is, at its heart, a cautionary tale, of man's scientific hubris, defying both God and nature. Lets start by saying this film is, in most respects a more than decent. Acting is, for the most part, outstanding, as are the creature effects.

Why is the creature a hot guy? WHY? Netflix has a thing with hottening everyone lately, even Ed Gein, and I just don't get it. As with any GDT film, it is exceedingly interesting visually, and I'd go so far as to say his visual language rivals Tim Burton in excellence. This film is a visual marvel in basically every scene, a veritable feast for the eyes. There are some great performances, especially among the bit …

The attention to detail, the clear love of the genre but for me it’s when I fell in comedic love with Cloris Leachman and her extraordinary performance as Frau Blücher. *horses whinny in the distance*
