I only got partway through it. I didn't mind the monster throwing dudes in the opening minutes when I couldn't really see him, but then once I got a good look at the monster... he looks dumb! I mean fakey, make-up-y, unconvincing somehow. His skin and hands and the scars just looked bad to me. I just can't get behind a Frankenstein movie with a dumb-looking monster.

It's not boring. It's just... too reverent? Too serious? The acting too period-melodramatic? And personally the action sequences, with the monster throwing people 50 yards through the air, felt like they belonged in a Marvel movie, not a Frankenstein adaptation. Nothing stands out about it except for maybe the production design. It's solid and I admire it, but it didn't entirely work. 3.5/5.

Boorman's EXCALIBUR, which we were discussing last month iirc.

The fog was there to hide the fact that a South African composed the score 😉

FRANKENSTEIN (2025): Megalomaniacal Victor Frankenstein reanimates a man from dead tissue, but the powerful monster is unhappy with his lot as a deathless outcast and blames his creator. Superhero-style action sequences sit uncomfortably alongside the stodgy and serious 19th century source material, but otherwise this is a solid, if not quite standout, adaptation of Mary Shelley's hard-to-film novel. 3.5/5.

I own 18 Miles Davis albums and shockingly I'd never listened to this one (or it's siblings) all the way through. Just shows how many classics the man made.
