It was OK. I thought it was kinda' sloppy though. I didn't like the fairytale (almost Marvel with his Superman powers) style it had where it's just constantly reinforcing how innocent he is. I haven't read the book, but from adaptations or incorporation of Frankenstein/'s monster I've seen it feels like the original story has way more going on with it.

Another Marvel aspect I felt was how straight-forward a lot of the dialogue and visual metaphors were. Which has me wonder how much films going forward are going to have this kind of storytelling.
