A well-written review (as usual), but I have to disagree.
In my eyes, Branagh's version is overambitious and somehow undecided. It seems to me that he desperately tried to include as many details of Shelley's original story as possible; at the same time, I think, he wanted to create a decidedly genuine version at all costs.
It would have been a better idea for Branagh to condense the story, or to turn it into a TV series.
Having said that, it's by no means a bad film and definitely worth watching.
