Think Uwe Boll with a bigger budget and somewhat more coherent editing skills. Still, it forces poor Miranda Otto to play a character called "the Gargoyle Queen" straight-faced, and that's just beyond cruel.

Hey, let's make an Underworld movie where we replace Kate Beckinsdale in tight outfits with a lumbering deformed human. That will totally dispel all those notions that people only watch Underworld to see Beckinsdale's shiny butt, and let the strength of our "flinging endless bad CGI" methodology shine through.

This is obviously an Underworld creator ripping himself off, so you get constant nighttime; oddly deserted, vaguely eastern European locations; 2 groups of magical beings constantly fighting each other; & giant plotholes (after decades of fighting & killing 666 easily killed demons, the angels never realized the base - for hundreds more! was just a few blocks away?) What makes this worse is the far more frantic editing & CGI displays. & as good as Eckhart is, he's not Kate Beckinsale in latex

A complete mockery of Shelley's character. A terrible Underworld wanna be script, with awful dialogue, strange plot devices, and weird characters. Eckhart does his best but to no avail. The real shame that there was cool franchise potential here but all this was, was a cash-in antihero attempt at reviving a monster. Visuals were ok and Eckhart was alright, but not much else worked in the slightest.

If the creator of this material had come up with an original concept for his creation it would have...still been awful. But at the least it wouldn't have crapped all over one of the greatest novels ever written!

Despite all its flaws, I still found this film wildly entertaining. Yes, it took 90 seconds for something nonsensical to occur. Yes, Miranda Otto makes a rare appearance to play a gargoyle queen. Yes, Kevin Grevioux is not terribly original and just borrowed his Underworld concept for this one. Yes, when the demons cast off their human appearance, they look like Ivan Ooze (which is trendy these days). Yes, the fire CGI looks Syfy-level. But I still had fun, and doesn't that count for something?

Tedious with a major plot hole. If inscribing a symbol makes anything a demon killing weapon then why not make BULLETS with that symbol and get a mini gun?

I, bored. This movie was pretty boring. Nothing really stands out. Heck, even Frankenstein's Monster (They call him Adam, which seems like a boring name too) has a boring make-up design. They could have went all-out with the design of the stitches on his face and body...

Yvonne Strzechowski always pleases the eye but her acting skills were here wasted. And it was difficult to imagine what was Bill Nighy thinking to sign in for this movie. I haven't seen the original comic story but there was not much to cling on. May Mary Shelley rest in peace.

I'll give my impression of the first opening 3 minutes of this movie, "We do know the source material...FUCK THAT SHIT DEMONS VS GARGOYLES LOLOLOLOLOL!" On the positive side 10 minutes of the short 90 minute run time are the closing credits. Also, Mary Shelley got a writing credit, which I find particularly hilarious.

While my gut (and psi) said no, I couldn't resist the idea of a gothic superhero. Saturday morning cartoon dialogue, ugly visuals and Orientalism. That Frankentein's monster is an expert in eskrima -I think- says a lot.

I certainly wasn't expecting much going into this: I thought it would stay mindlessly guy-friendly. But the oh-so poignant "You're only a monster if you choose to be" moment was truly cringe-worthy. No need to take yourself so seriously when making a movie of this quality.

This flick was in a no win situation; make the story different and bitchers say you're not following source material, make it similar and bitchers say you're just copying. While I admit that it is not the greatest it is certainly an entertaining gothic feel movie.

If you saw the previews, then you know this has nothing to do with the source material. If you're still planning on watching it afterward, than you'll get exactly what you'd think you would: a sibling to "Underworld" or "Resident Evil". I can live with that.

Watching this movie was like watching someone else play a video game...pretty boring. Nothing remarkable happens, everything looks too cheap and has way too much CGI. They should've added a little bit of humor to this to at least make it chuckle worthy.

But the spirituality here ultimately becomes just as jumbled as the plot, and the violence teeters somewhere between assaulting and just plain weird. I wonder if the filmmakers might one day echo Victor Frankenstein himself and express regret over ever making the thing. (pluggedin.com)

I don't really know what I was expecting. Part of me hoped for Eckhart to go Nic Cage batshit insane with it, but after leaving the theatre, I knew simply that I'd had a fun time. Worthwhile 3D, actually LIGHTER on the CGI than I'd expected. It boasts a completely linear swerve-free plot that I'm not going to condemn it for; it's shut-your-brain-off movie-making fun that doesn't NEED a captivating story or twists and turns to be entertaining. Is it objectively GOOD? Probably not. But I had fun.

If you like dialogue which sounds like it was written by someone at primary school then this film is for you. Action scenes are fine but the cheesy interactions between characters just makes you cringe! The story is rushed and everyone seems happy turning up and putting in minimal effort for a payday - its rubbish!

About as bad a film as you could ever see in a theatre. Blase in every way. At one point someone says "It's coming" and a supposedly brilliant scientist responds "Him, not it." Did nobody think that it would have sounded better for her to say "He, not it."?

Appropriately, I, Frankenstein feels like a stapled-together version of a number of similar films, but I don't think that's enough to condemn it. It has solid action that is shot and edited well, a surprisingly serious tone that almost gets the audience to buy into its ridiculous premise, a good setting that is used well, and actors that don't trivialize it or make it feel silly. It's a little exposition-heavy and its derivativeness might turn off some viewers, but I had some fun with it.

There's a level on which I genuinely enjoy this, and it's a level shared with microwave burritos and Magic Bullet infomercials. That doesn't make it a good movie, and honestly just reflects badly on myself as a person. Anyway, I have to live with it, not you.
