I, Frankenstein

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Loud, incoherent, and dramatically listless, I, Frankenstein is a remarkably dull fantasy adventure that fails to generate much excitement or interest in its characters.

The effects are poor, the dialogue is laughable, and despite Aaron Eckhart's valiant efforts, the whole thing feels like a cheesy TV movie.

I, Frankenstein, with its monster reinvented as a superhero, is a fairly predictable action movie. Shelley would not have approved.

Sydney Morning Herald

Only in occasional, uncanny moments - when someone uses an iPhone, or gets off a tram - does this world appear to intersect in any way with our own.

Rated: 2/5

Regardless of how much I might enjoy goofy, cheesy material especially in the horror genre, at some point you have to offer more.

Rated: 2/5

Richard Crouse

There is some cool gothic Gargoyle imagery on display and a variety of posh English accents to class to the joint, but it seems only Nighy realizes that this would have played better as a campy comedy.

Rated: 1/5

Not the worst movie ever made, but far, far removed from the best.

Ron M It only took four minutes into the film for me to realize that the writing was bad, the special-effects were bad and the choreography was bad, and then shut the movie off and run to RT to drop a review. Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/23/24 Full Review Jeremy H If you use your imagination sit back and try to enjoy the movie you will enjoy this movie don't read the reviews or low stars just watch the movie and try and just use your imagination Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/07/24 Full Review Mark B This bad. Really bad. Rated 1/5 Stars • Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/01/24 Full Review D M Even though the film felt like another Blade/Underworld remake, I enjoyed the gargoyle order addition. I wish the storyline moved faster through Adams creation & why he was being hunted by demons so there could be more action packed scenes. All in all, it wasn't a waste of time to see. I do hope for a future Frankenstein film that WOWS me! Rated 3/5 Stars • Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/29/24 Full Review Brenda S Action Monster movie, enjoyable, and not ment to be some highbtow epic. It is good for what it is and what it was meant to be. Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/10/24 Full Review Oren B Such a low so-called "critics" ratings - that I HAD to watch!Excellent movie!
