Netflix has dropped a new film guaranteed to have viewers gripping their seats, and fans are already pledging to tune in for one particular reason. The streaming giant has today launched Frankenstein on its platform after releasing two two trailers to build anticipation ahead of its public debut.

Featuring renowned Hollywood stars Oscar Isaac, Jacob Elordi, and Mia Goth, the film brings Mary Shelley’s timeless story of a brilliant scientist and the monster born from his dangerous ambitions to the screen. However, it’s director Guillermo del Toro who has truly captured subscribers’ attention, with one TikTok user declaring: “Every movie by Guillermo del Toro is the best.”

Another user commented: “It’s del Toro, 100% the creatures are gonna look awesome.” A third user remarked: “I will definitely watch this on Netflix.”

One more user expressed: “I can’t wait soon watch.” A final user exclaimed: “That’s freaking awesome!”.

The Mexican filmmaker Guillermo del Toro has previously helmed Pan’s Labyrinth, The Devil’s Backbone, The Shape of Water, Cronos, and Hellboy, amongst other acclaimed pictures.

In an IMDb review, one viewer praised: “Finally, after a bunch of okay, mediocre and awful adaptations tackling Mary Shelley’s gothic science fiction horror epic, Guillermo del Toro gets to have his vision fully realised in what’s easily one of the most faithful adaptations ever made while still being his own film.”

The visuals are phenomenal, the acting is outstanding all around (although Isaac and Elordi are the standouts), Guillermo’s writing and direction are steadfast and intim The music is hauntingly beautiful, and the cinematography is some of the best of the year.

“I will be seeing this again in cinemas, but I hope Netflix allows this epic to be shown in IMAX. That would be one hell of an experience.”

Another chimed in: “A Gothic opera soaked in sadness and snow. Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein is the adaptation of his dreams – fierce, fragile, tragic. “Jacob Elordi gives the performance of his career, portraying the Creature as a being of grace and anguish.

“Oscar Isaac’s Victor is as tortured as he is brilliant. The film is gorgeous in every way: the production design, the costuming, the blood-red skies and green shadows.

“Alexandre Desplat’s score lingers in your bones. But what sets this apart is the soul.”

“Few monster films ever ask: what happens when the monster wants to die?

“Fewer still answer so devastatingly. “

A final viewer added: “Finally someone came very close to capturing the original story. Del Toro has done an excellent job.

“Perhaps not for everyone, but I was enthralled. I wish it was playing in main cinemas but I imagine they are worried the general superhero and monster movie crowd won’t get it. Personally, this was very worth my time.”
