Intcatinfo A Masterpiece!

BallWubba Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.

Ava-Grace Willis Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

sherlollyotp First things first. If you're looking for a complete, understated biopic, this is not the film for you. Understated, 'Mary Shelley' is not. Captivating, it most certainly is. Emotionally powerful, visually beautiful, and positively immersive, it may not be pin-point accurate to history but I feel it is true to the spirit of those it portrays and the story it tells. It also doesn't fall into my least favourite biopic traps, like trying to show a person's whole life in one film, or being so cowed by history it forgets to have fun. It has a good, solid time frame, and ends exactly where it should. It is compelling and entertaining. There was so much more to Mary Shelley than the events depicted here, yes, but the story it tells is by no means an incomplete one. I couldn't recommend this film emphatically enough. Elle Fanning is pitch-perfect as Mary herself, capturing grand emotion and great genius without losing sight of her youth, and she carries the whole film beautifully. Douglas Booth is a wonderful Shelley, and gets extra props for making me care about a historical figure I've always disliked. Bel Powley gives a fantastic, sympathetic performance as Claire Clairmont, who deserved better and for whom I would die here. Tom Sturridge is a delightfully mercurial and rather hammy Byron, Ben Hardy an earnest and lovable Polidori. In fact, I can't think of a single performance I disliked. Is it a perfect film? No. Is it totally historically accurate? God, no. But did I, personally, love it? Oh, so much.

rainabosniac Yes, it could have been mistaken for one, as most biographies are, but I can assure you that it is not. The feel this movie gave off was quite old without it seeming like a typical period drama. Absolutely loved it, such a stunning film and the first I have seen about Mary Shelley's life.I passed a cinema in Cambridge where this film was being shown and little did I know that it had only come out in select theatres. Finding it on the internet was a pain, so, if you see it anywhere, go watch it immediately, it's not as accessible as one might want it to be.

Abbass Akkoush An important decent movie with some great performances & beautiful plot. A true story of Mary Godwin that got inspired by her miserable life & love affair to write her first masterpiece & how she struggled as a female author to get her chance of publishing.

adonis98-743-186503 Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin is a teenage dreamer determined to make her mark on the world when she meets the dashing and brilliant poet Percy Shelley. So begins a torrid, bohemian love affair marked by both passion and personal tragedy that will transform Mary and fuel the writing of her Gothic masterwork. Imbued with the imaginative spirit of its heroine, Mary Shelley brings to life the world of a trailblazing woman who defied convention and channeled her innermost demons into a legend for the ages. Despite an amazing cast and Elle Fanning trying her best 'Mary Shelley' tells a story that is neither good or even remotely interesting at all. (0/10)
