John K. @EspressoFilms Oct 19 I don’t understand how this is ranked so high, it was terrible. See more Kimberly P 07/07/2024 Very slow... found it rather strange.. watched it because it got good reviews. . Very sorry I watched 1/2 if it... stopped wayching.. See more Nathan H 04/08/2024 Surprisingly faithful rendering with good scares and great performances overshadowed by too much guts and gore, but you can tell everyone involved had fun. See more Daniel B 04/02/2024 Frankienstein de 2015, es tan incómoda cómo simbólica, una actuación de Xavier Samuel que se siente comprometida tanto física cómo interpretativamente. La deformidad de "Adam" representa el cómo la "perversión" social, lo hizo victima de las circunstancias, siendo tangible en el mismo, el cómo nuestro entorno nos deja cicatrices que nos recuerdan de donde venimos. Una narrativa que una los agujeros de guion cómo herramienta para funcionar, pero con escenas individuales fantásticas. See more Tom S @Acewrite13 03/21/2023 A fascinating update on the classic trope set in L.A. that modernizes the tragic theme with genuine emotional punch. The director Bernard Rose, who directed Candyman and Immortal Beloved, does wonders with a low budget and manages to be horrifically gory, but also poetic and dreamy. Loved it. See more Taylor L 10/08/2022 Bernard Rose's Frankenstein is a relatively accurate modern rendition of Mary Shelley's classic novel, employing the director's sensitivity for today's social- and class-based issues in a similar manner to his most successful work, the original iteration of Candyman. Shifting the perspective entirely to Xavier Samuel's 'monster', the plot focuses less on Frankenstein's own hubris and callous nature in creating a new life thoughtlessly than it does on the monster's naivete being eroded through several rather on-the-nose encounters out in the world, going from innocent, childlike idealist to callous indifference. Most of these events are pretty on-the-nose and aren't handled with what you might call the greatest subtlety, including an execution by cop right on the street. It's a movie that has its sensibilities in the right place and a solid central performance from Samuel, but the original novel remains cutting and universal enough that this remake probably wasn't a necessity.
