I loved Victor Frankenstein. Victor and Igor had great chemistry and a love\/hate relationship. The main characters were well developed and the secondary characters also worked well within the story. The obsessed detective, Igor&#8217;s love interest, Victor&#8217;s cruel father, and a twisted rich benefactor helped make this an exciting drama. This is probably the first time I&#8217;ve felt anything except total disgust for Victor Frankenstein and the first time the monster had no apparent redeeming qualities. Frankenstein was still self-centered and unhinged, but the hint of humor and insecurity in his personality made him more empathetic than in other versions of the story, including the original.<\/p>\n<p>Have you seen this movie?
