A realization struck me: there wasn't animosity between the hunter and the wolf, nor between the wolf and the sheep. Yet, a sense of inescapable conflict permeated their relationship. It seemed to suggest that this is simply how things operate—a force that would destroy you merely for existing. The 2025 adaptation of **Frankenstein** is an exceptional film. It brought back memories of the source material, and the exploration of what defines humanity versus monstrosity was handled effectively through the writing. The visuals and editing choices complemented the narrative perfectly. It’s a recurring pattern: women are often the ones who offer compassion to those considered threatening. Mia Goth delivered a wonderful performance as Elizabeth, embodying the gothic style flawlessly. I appreciated how they depicted each character's interactions with him—one emphasizing his humanity, while another stripped him of it. Certain elements felt somewhat obvious, but I’m overlooking that because of the sheer enjoyment and emotional impact the film had on me. If you were to inquire whether I shed tears, you already know the answer. Naturally, I always commend Oscar Issac's performances; he has a remarkable ability to breathe life into characters—I would happily watch him observe paint drying. I was surprised to discover Jacob Elordi’s involvement and applaud his portrayal of Frankenstein’s son. I’d certainly see this film again.
