Review of Young Frankenstein (1974) by Keith M — 26 Jul 2010
I have seen 3 of Mel Brooks films Robin Hood: Men in Tights and Spaceballs. This would have to be the third one i've seen and its really good. The start gets you kind of sucked in, as this is not the average Frankenstein origin.
The Professor played absolutley well by crazy eyed Gene Wilder definetley defines the inner craziness of a mad professor. Marty Feldman plays Igor said as EYE-GOR and is defintley a great piece to the film and also Terri Garr as Igna (or some German name I can't remember).
Not to mention Madeline Kahn as Frankenstein's fiancee who gives her best also. Did I miss anyone oh yeah Peter Boyle as the mistreated creature who is like an Uncle Fester in this film but with a talking problem and Gene Hackmen also Guest Stars in this film.
The film is filled with classical funny moments, it could have been inspiration for the Munsters. The funny moments are also featured with lovable dialogue such as Frankenstein and Igor's introduction.
I won't spoil all the funny scenes, but it suprisingly did very well for a spoof of a film. I only wished they had one of thos announcers at the beginning of the original Frankenstein movie warning the audience.
Anyway brilliant comedy.
