finished watching Frankenstein ๐๐๐๐๐
As a person unknown with Mary Shelley's original work and other adaptations of this story, my opinion could be taken with a grain of salt;
However, I did not enjoy this film ultimately. The story warranted a screenplay not written for Netflix audiences, one that dared to contain multitudes and wasn't afraid to keep cards up its sleeve to subvert any opinions audiences may have had. It felt like someone's reading of a story reproduced as fact, and not a perspective.
The actors have barely anything to do. The film looks unimpressive and flat, with CGI distracting one too many times. I wasn't impressed, even if Oscar Isaac did try.
