The Bride! movie review: Christian Bale, Jessie Buckley film is brilliant, only in flashes | Movie-review News

4 min readMar 6, 2026 07:37 PM IST The Bride! movie review: “I’m revolting,” says Ida/Penny/The Bride/Mary Shelley in The Bride!. “Oh, no!” exclaims Frank/Frankenstein. “Relax,” says she, or means it anyway. “I am revolting as in mutiny.” Just in case you didn’t get it – and there is little chance of that. From exposition of scientific terms regarding how dead persons are brought alive again, as in Frankenstein and Ida, to exposition on how this is actually a feminist treatise, in the garb of a horror/romance, Maggie Gyllenhaal’s The Bride! doesn’t believe in leaving anything unsaid. So it is that Ida (Buckley) at a crucial juncture says “Me Too” once and, then, once more. So it is that Dr Euphronius (Bening) underlines that she must keep her first name hidden to get published. So it is that Frank (Bale) revels in Ida’s refusal to be anybody’s wife. And so it is that the detective who cracks the case, Mallow (Cruz), outwits the others because nobody notices the woman officer in the room. Not that …

Maggie Gyllenhaal’s ‘The Bride!’ is a Frankenstein riff with a pulse| Entertainment News

Published by Parlour News

Maggie Gyllenhaal’s “The Bride!” is a big, brash swing at a new “The Bride of Frankenstein” that struggles to cohere its many parts. But I’ll say this for it: It’s alive. Movie Review: Maggie Gyllenhaal’s ‘The Bride!’ is a Frankenstein riff with a pulse Just months after Guillermo del Toro presented his lavish “Frankenstein,” Gyllenhaal, in her follow-up to her excellent 2021 directorial debut, “The Lost Daughter,” has set her sights on reimagining 1935’s “The Bride of Frankenstein.” The sequel starred Boris Karloff and, in the dual role of the Bride and Mary Shelley, Elsa Lanchester. But in “The Bride of Frankenstein,” the shock-haired Bride is only on screen for a handful of minutes at the end of the film. Gyllenhaal, who also wrote her film, has corrected the imbalance, refashioning the story from the Bride’s perspective and concocting a protagonist of unfiltered feminist fury. As played by Jessie Buckley, she is both a victim of male control and a reanimated avenging angel. Buckley is also, like Lanchester was, Shelley. In the movie’s opening moments, …

Jake has now opened up about his experience of collaborating with Maggie on the film. Actor Jake Gyllenhaal with director Maggie Gyllenhaal during the shoot of The Bride!

It felt completely individual, unlike anything I’d encountered before.I had spoken with my sister about the project for a couple of years beforehand, but when I finally read the script, it was as if she had somehow gathered and distilled all the ideas she’d been contemplating and metabolising for so many years, and woven them into this rich, deep, modern …
