Review of Victor Frankenstein (2015) by Jeremy M — 09 Dec 2015
In the film's opening minutes this fresh prospective comes to life, as Victor (McAvoy) and Igor (Daniel Radcliffe), escape from the circus after Frankenstein witnesses the anatomy-savvy hunchback save Lorelei (Jessica Brown Findlay), a beautiful trapeze artist and ignored love interest, after a deathly fall.
Super imposed x-rays of bone structure in a blueprint-like effect, slow motion fireworks, freaks with fire-blowing and knife-throwing abilities all make for an inspired opening sequence, which unfortunately fails to prevail into the ensuing 110-minutes runtime.
