Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein is all show and little substance  review
"From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging."
"His casting as the monster is one of the most disarming aspects of Guillermo del Toro's bold, visually stunning but frequently jarring rework of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. The Mexican director has chosen to emphasise the romanticism at the expense of the horror. Elordi plays the creature as a misunderstood, James Dean-like outsider with Oedipal issues rather than as an agent of evil and chaos."
The Independent covers reproductive rights, climate change and Big Tech by sending reporters to develop stories on the ground. The outlet investigates finances such as Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC and produces documentaries like 'The A Word' on American women fighting for reproductive rights. The Independent relies on donations, keeps reporting free of paywalls, and asks those who can afford it to help fund quality journalism. Guillermo del Toro's rework of Frankenstein emphasizes romanticism over horror and uses striking, often jarring visuals. Jacob Elordi portrays the creature as a sympathetic outsider with Oedipal issues; Oscar Isaac plays the egomaniacal scientist who disowns his creation.
