I have seen a few films about Frankenstein's monster, most of them good. I felt this is more of a story about the strange mad inclinations within Frankenstein's mind, and the pursuit and reasonings from the monster he created. I believe it an allegory for the human mind and how human beings are evolving. Brilliantly narrated by Kenneth Branagh, who brings the essence of this Gothic classic to the listener.
