Review of Frankenstein

Frankenstein (1931)
10/10
The role that got Boris Karloff famous.
18 September 2010
One day when I was on the internet and was looking at some horror movies on Google, I spotted this great title. Then when I saw the 75th Anniversiry Edition DVD in a store, I just knew I had to have this marvelous movie. I got to say it was well worth my time, because the performances were superb- especially the famous line "It's Alive! It's Alive!". At first the director, James Whale, didn't want to direct this, because he thought it would be a joke. But then he thought of the possibilities of Frankenstien- creating something that audience had never seen on the big-screen. While the movie is no longer scary and frightening, because the horror in it is what is in G-rated pictures on Television today, it still is great, because it seems more like a drama. Boris Karloff's performance is what really makes this film worth watching, because you just feel sorry for him and makes you want to watch this film again and again. If you have never seen this movie, check it out as soon as possible, it's well worth the time.
