Review of Victor Frankenstein (2015) by Tvjerry — 07 Dec 2015
The difference in this reinterpretation is that it focuses on the relationship between crazed scientist Victor Frankenstein (James McAvoy) and his hunchback Igor (Daniel Radcliffe), who has been reinvented as his brilliant protégé.
The interesting twists to the traditional story begin with Igor's origin and continue thru the entire narrative. Most of them provided a fresh perspective, although McAvoy's ranting does get tedious (Radcliffe creates a sweet character).
The cinematography, art direction and costumes beautifully capture the period. An absorbing, vigorous and interesting new version.
