Directed by Paul McGuigan (of «Lucky Number Slevin,» which should have tipped me off a little) from a screen story and script by Max Landis (of whom it can be said, at the very least, that horror appreciation runs in his family, what with his father having made «An American Werewolf In London»), «Victor Frankenstein» is,
despite bravura performances from committed young leads Daniel Radcliffe and James McAvoy, all kinds of obnoxious and pointless.
