While it lacks the dark atmosphere of The Curse of Frankenstein, the new creation has enough to stand on its own two feet!
The story line in this movie was different, but in a mostly good way. I loved how the dialogue by the Creature was written, it was so good! My main problems with the story was that they underused Christoph Waltz very badly, and I wish they had kept the dark and gothic atmosphere that The Curse of Frankenstein had!
The acting in this movie was amazing. Oscar Isaac was a solid casing choice (Even though IMO they should have cast Christoph Waltz or Ralph Ineson), and he managed to stand on his own two feet. Jacob Elordi did an amazing job! He looked the part, and his voice for the Creature was so perfect. Easily the best casting choice of the movie. Christoph Waltz did a great job as well, but I hated how underused he was!
The production design was great. They did a good job at making it look like the 1800s also. I also could not believe how amazing Jacob looked as the Creature. The makeup and prosthetics team outdid themselves with this!
I am so glad that they did not leave it open-ended for a sequel. It had flaws, but it did not need a sequel!
Out of 4 stars I would give it...
3 out of 4 stars
