August 21, 2009I don't understand why animations have to be this way. Villain, romance, sidekicks, slapstick, action etc. I know they want to be enjoyed by the whole family, but do they really need to cover all these bases? Igor is a pretty decent effort that hasn't come from one of the big stu...( read more)

November 1, 2009I went in expecting to hate it, and was half-right. Hearing Jay Leno say the line ". . .so I can rub his face in #2" made me laugh, because I didn't think they'd stoop to that in a kiddie-family movie, but they DID.

More well-aimed wit was needed, less grapeshot wackiness. full review

Pete Hammond, Hollywood.com
A completely original concept, a Frankenstein 'toon that's clever enough to please both kids and their parents (for a change). full review

Claudia Puig, USA Today
