Guillermo del Toro's 'Frankenstein's is missing its maker's madness, but Jacob Elordi gives an emotionally nuanced portrayal of the monster.

Del Toro last premiered in Venice with 2017’s The Shape of Water, which went on to win the festival’s top prize before claiming the Best Picture Oscar. Netflix, which has yet to secure a Best Picture win, is placing a major bet on Frankenstein after the streamer scored its first Best Animated Feature with del Toro’s Pinocchio.
