Toronto, ON
This was actually my first time watching any kind of Frankenstein content, but I thought it was lovely! What Guillermo del Toro put together here felt like movie magic, blissfully soaring high at all the right moments. Akin to all of your favourite movies — you know, the kind that make your heart flutter. The performances here were great, particularly Oscar Isaac. He isn't old by any means, but he moved around here like a twenty-year-old. And Jacob Elordi was built for this, literally speaking.
Watched on 35mm at the TIFF Lightbox. Limited theatrical release before hitting Netflix. Of all the Netflix movies I've watched, this honestly felt the most normal. I think it would be a disservice to queue this up on Netflix rather than seeing it on the big screen.
