This movie is kinda old school in that it is heavily dialogue driven. So I guess that's why a lot of modern audiences don't like this. Surely don't expect a Frankenstein movie. I found it to be mostly interesting, especially the last half of the film. Elle Fanning is tremendous as usual.

Fascinating account of the Frankenstein author. Slow paced but never uninteresting. It sheds light on the face behind the monster, while telling its own tale of a woman confined by the sexist monsters of the period she lived in.

If you don’t know Mary Shelley’s true story this movie is a great way to start knowing the person behind the writer. As all biopics it lefts a lot of stuff out and changes a bit of the biography so it can be more cinematic. If it wasn’t for the young actors you might think this movie is from the early 2000 but even though the movie lacks a bit of action and is mainly focused on the dialogues the best parts of it are left unsaid, just veiled enough so the viewer can imagine them, but without saying them out loud, that though doesn’t work as well because it’s a biopic so a trip to Wikipedia after will solve pretty much every doubt, but despite its flaws Elle Fanning’s performance makes it worth watching.

Soulless, mind-numbingly boring and cliche. How anyone manages to make such a boring movie about such a fascinating historical character is beyond me.

Let Mary Shelley fuck on her mum's grave!!

Commits the cardinal sin of the entertainment industry: being boring. Moreover, I absolutely did not believe that the relationship between Wollstonecraft Godwin and Shelley was anything of the importance that it appeared to be in real life. I also was ki More
