I actually liked this movie. There is a lot of negative comments and reviews about it, it seems people often forget that movies are made to entertain us; not every single one is Oscar worthy, but that doesn't necessarily means it's a bad one. I like this story, and I like this Frankenstein origins type of movie. James McAvoy is an amazing actor, somehow I believe everything he does - weather it's a mad genius Victor Frankenstein, brilliant professor in X-men or just an ordinary man in love with his wife in The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby. The scenes in the circus at the beginning of the movie are brilliantly done; slow motion of running and circus performers, along with the fire and light effects are my favorite one. Overall, entertaining and quite enjoyable. Of course it won't be everybody's cup of tea, but what in this world is? Give it a chance and it might be right up your alley...
