The film drops from the engaging early transformation sequence to tedious climactic creation scenes, losing nearly 3 points as reviewers found the finale overlong and boring.
Victor Frankenstein starts promisingly with an engaging circus rescue and memorable transformation sequence that showcases the chemistry between McAvoy and Radcliffe. However, the film gradually loses momentum as it becomes increasingly derivative of other franchises and burdened by familiar plot elements. The climactic sequences particularly disappointed critics, who found them overlong and tedious despite decent special effects.
