Jax C Nov 28 I had no expectations before seeing the movie. I saw only the trailers before it's release. I'm a fan of Aaron Eckhart. I'm a childhood fan of Frankenstein also. Good vs. evil is my favorite theme where the lines are clearly defined. I gave this 5 stars for all facets of the movie, the casting, the acting, dialog, writing, theme, locations, the suspension of disbelief--aided by the special effects. I have seen it 4 times now and just watched it on SyFy channel. It goes down as one of my top 3 "monster" movies. I sincerely hope for a Frankenstein 2 sequel but it seems Mr. Eckhart is not up for it. Oh well, maybe "Son Of..." will be a project in future years. See more Robert W Nov 27 I Frankenstein expecting a dark action movie with some entertainment value, but what I got instead was a confusing mess filled with unnecessary blasphemy and strange creative choices that completely ruin it. The part that bothered me the most was how casually the movie tries to rewrite spiritual concepts. They actually imply that God isn’t the only creator, which is a wild and disrespectful direction to take. And then they have the nerve to call Frankenstein’s monster "Adam," as if that somehow elevates the story. It doesn’t — it just makes it feel like the writers were trying way too hard to sound deep and ended up insulting people’s beliefs in the process. On top of that, the movie itself is just not good. The acting is flat, the dialogue sounds like it came from a bargain-bin superhero script, and the plot has no idea what it wants to be. Demons, gargoyles, secret wars — none of it fits together, and none of it adds anything to the original Frankenstein story. The whole thing feels like it was written by someone who wanted to copy Underworld but forgot to include anything that made Underworld decent. The CGI looks outdated, the characters are boring, and the pacing drags even during the action scenes. By the end, I was just waiting for it to be over. Between the disrespectful religious themes and the overall low-quality writing, this is definitely a movie I wouldn’t recommend to anyone. Save your time — there are much better creature movies out there. See more Richard C. @rczjrca Aug 21 An entertaining movie. That is what it was ment to be. No, not a billion dollar blockbuster that took $200 million to make. If you like monster action movies and want to be entertained then watch this movie. No need to over complicate things.

Seriously though, the acting was OK and though the special effects could have been better it was worth a watch. I kind of got Highlander vibes, guessing that's Eckhart's square jawed scowl at work. Overall? Good. See more Bruce M @BruceMc May 13 Not very good, relatively incoherent, but SFX were good and it has Miranda Otto in it, so it gets an extra star. See more Angel M Mar 1 Es muy buena la película pese a que es muy predecible , y la gente en las críticas solo saben decir pésimos efectos , pero me parece algo genial me recordó a el Frankenstein de Van Helsing , que el solo quería vivir y no ser tratado como un mounstro , además me pareció increíble está película, no entiendo porque ha está la critican tan mal .
