Current Events > Frankenstein movie (no spoilers in OP)

(+) Yeah! (+)

it was incredible. absolutely transcendental movie experience. it was like a stageplay, this simultaneous earnestness and hamminess coming together to create something i couldnt look away for, not even for a second. i was always curious as to what was next. it was sad, it was sweet, it was dark, and it was beautiful.

i think everyone should see it but i don't think everyone would like it. it's my movie of the year right now. ill talk more in-depth tomorrow, am tired

I'm going to be watching it in theaters this upcoming Monday with friends only because my client worked on the set design for it and I want to support him.

Ill try to watch this if i can, its about time we get a good movie from the material

I just saw it. I completely loved it.
No joke, it felt like a perfect movie to me.
Like Im not saying its my favorite, but perfectly made. Amazing story/script, well cast and acted. Amazing tone, sets, sound, music, lighting and effects. Not one thing seemed cheap or bad in any aspect. One thing in current movies that annoys me is dramas are filmed so dark in most scenes. This is a movie made for that, yet it never used that gimmick to set the tone,

i never saw a trailer so I'm not sure what was shown, but I can maybe see some being bored, its starts out strong like it might have lots of action, then it goes into a long origin which I found compelling, but I could see some being bored there.

spoilers kinda

i really love how Victor starts out innocent, pure and you relate and feel for him. But by the end hes a monster and just vile and evil, yet unlike other movies where characters turn evil or go crazy, this is a slow burn with nothing majorly changing him. Theres not a moment where you notice hes different. Unlike most movies its an act or few scenes where something changes them.

Jacob Elordi fucking stole the show as The Creature.

yeah he was phenomenal. the whole cast

and i agree, Frankenstein's build to evil sociopath wasnt a build at all. it was an organic and seamless thread of his character. no big "here it is" moment. that's part of why the movie was sad

there was this one scene, after Frankenstein created the new life, he returns to civilization for his brothers wedding. that scene was heartbreaking and so hard to watch. he just kept pushing the creature, who was there as a man not as some antagonistic force. then he tried to shoot it out of rage, which he knew wouldn't work anyway. killedhis brothers fiance, who he also loved or at least wanted. then the commotion continues and his brother gets his head cracked open

that was so difficult. then he takes the cowards way out. abandons life, abandons society, faces no repercussions. just goes on an emdless hunt in order to get what to me was death by cop (frankenstein) suicide. he never owned it, amd even to the very end seemed insincere. but the creature was better than that.

it was such a good movie

seriously go see it please. i cried 4 or 5 times throughout

Only 4 theaters are showing it here and they're all far af and I'm not a member to any of them smh. Gonna try and catch it tomorrow though.

Cant wait to see it. Im hyped.
