I have a few complaints but overall it was a good movie.

The CGI wolf scenes were fucking awful. Wolves acting like individualistic suicide bombers. Entirely unwolf like slop.

The ending also fucking sucked. Victor showed no signs of deserving redemption. I feel the movie would be much more poignant point if the monster just fucking killed the bastard and walked off the ship. Maybe then the closing scene showing anguish on the monster.

The brother's line "No, Victor you are the monster." or whatever exactly it was, is super cringe and did not need to be said.

Besides that it was quite good. I see some complaints about Elizabeth, but I am the opposite. I saw her representing feminine ideals. She was nurturing, motherly, and protective of the creature.

Was it woke? I would say no more the original work, which definitely had early feminist messages. Themes about ignoring feminine voices, progress without compassion, the need for companionship, the challenges of fatherhood, and parental traits being past down (which was not in the original work).

The reference to Ozymandias (which was a poem written by Mary Shelley's husband) was quite clever and fit thematically.
