Frankenstein
This was likely the most beautiful movie i have ever seen, it was shot amazingly. The colours were incredible, the reds popped so well so very memorable. The score really helped elevate some of the scenes making them so much more interesting. The sets & buildings were really cool & well designed too.
The acting was another strong point. Oscar Isaac & Jacob Elordi delivered standout performances, so very convincing & playing their characters well.
I haven’t read the book yet so i can’t talk on the adaptation of it (i’m not an adaptation purist when it comes to movie at all). However, i think that it could’ve been elevated to a higher level if they let the watcher think more for themselves. At points it felt like i was being told exactly what to think & feel rather than being able to feel my own thoughts & ideas. Saying “Victor you ARE the monster”, for example, really diminishes that & doesn’t let the watcher come to their own conclusion.
