I, Frankenstein is proof that a movie can be enjoyable if you just don’t take it too seriously. It is getting some truly terrible reviews by the critics, but is doing a little better in the ratings among average viewers. I saw it not expecting too much, and while it has flaws, it is a fun action flick.
The story follows Frankenstein’s monster in current day, as he becomes part of a never-ending war between good (gargoyles) and bad (demons). The action in the movie is great, the fight scenes are pretty brilliant I thought. The dialogue is rough at times, but you don’t see a movie like this for the dialogue. And the director and writers seem to realize this, as they keep the talking short, just long enough to advance the story, before launching into another fight.
The characters are all one dimensional, Aaron Ekhart doesn’t do much more than grunt and brood for the most part, but if you want to kill 1 1/2 hours, and see some good gripping battles, you can sit back and enjoy this one.
