Jacob Elordi, Oscar Isaac, Mia Goth and Christoph Waltz shine in Guillermo del Toro’s imaginative and elemental retelling of Mary Shelley’s groundbreaking novel.
Few contemporary filmmakers are as adept at balancing attention to detail and technical prowess with genuine emotional heft as Academy Award-winning filmmaker Del Toro (Pan’s Labyrinth, The Shape of Water). His take on Shelley’s masterpiece movingly captures the sense of isolation and yearning, while creating a fugue of dread and elemental horror. Goth is outstanding as Elizabeth and Elordi delivers a heart-stealing performance as the monster.
