"A visually stunning but chaotic and silly movie with some entertaining moments, hindered by grating elements and inconsistent tone."

"The Bride is a stylistic and ambitious take on The Bride of Frankenstein with standout performances, particularly by Jessie Buckley, but suffers from a messy second half and unnecessary subplots."
