Solid 4 stars because some things made it not a perfect hit of the park, however, nothing that deserves mentioning enough to soil the film. It's more, or less, that I didn't like some of the associated toxicity with the love interest in this movie and her manipulative ways being exhibited as a 'good thing,' where love conquers all. That message could use some revising, but I understand the overall purpose of her intentions and how that brought all the loose ends together - nonetheless, she was a bit too bad for his good guy demeanor, in my opinion. It's a funny movie if you enjoy action stories.
Nosferatu is a stunning cinematic delivery into a Gothic story of pure splendor that is a visual delight for the eyes in every possible way.
Then comes the amazing and stunningly shocking performance that Lily-rose Depp gave definitely proving that she has gotten the talent from her father to deliver the kind of performances that Gothic horror necessitates in order for it to be delivered properly to an audience.
An example of this is in fact that no CGI was used in the creation of this film and lily Rosa's iconic acting in the moment where she goes into a seizure and begins quaking is so believable that you truly do think that she's about to convulse and this is actually happening to her.
Next, comes Bill Skarsgard in one of the most phenomenal unrecognizable rules I've ever seen him and however the heroine voice that he delivered comparing it to the things that he's done in the past especially with the iconic voice that he gave to Pennywise it was clear to see he put a great deal of time and effort and ensuring that the accuracy of his voice and accent depicted that of a Romanian nobleman in such a way that it gave the character So much more depth even for the lack of visualization since he was mostly covered in shadow until his great reveal.
Nicholas Hoult and Aaron Taylor Johnson also did great in their respective roles but I will say I load Aaron Taylor Johnson in this role and that is a credit to his acting because the character in my opinion was meant to be hated. Willem Dafoe offers a sense of levity at moments in this movie and yet brings everything together in such a way that the ending delivery is not only perfect for the story line but also bitter sweet I truly think that Robert Eggers has delivered us a masterpiece of cinematic art in this film comparable to Francis Ford Coppola's Bram Stoker's Dracula from the 90s this is one of the best Gothic films I have seen in a long time.
As a Gothic enthusiast and a lover of Gothic literature classic art and film I give this movie a masterpiece stellar 5 star review.

Wow! Kraven was an entire mindtrip! It was a thrill ride and a pleasure to see, but also astonishing for some of the more violent scenes. I was impressed with the acting of Aaron and I felt that it was raw, emotionally riveting, and that it was a fun and immersive story that drew the audience into an interesting tale with added mystical elements that were unique and thought provoking. I enjoyed seeing Russell Crowe in a much more sinister role where he took more of a backseat to being the main character which was cool and fun - his portrayal of a Russian mob with a "family business" at stake was on point and I thoroughly enjoyed the interactions between his character and Aaron Taylor-Johnson's because they seemed to pair well with the energy. One of my more enjoyable Marvel experiences this year.
