Igor Overview

ANIMATED

Igor Specifications

In Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, the story revolves around the doctor who creates human life--not the hunchback assistant who helps him pull off the feat. In this computer-animated reinvention, John Cusack's Igor doesn't just take center stage; he stands in for an entire class of underappreciated workers. Igor knows more about science than Dr. Glickenstein (John Cleese), but in the gloomy town of Malaria, Igors simply follow orders. After reanimating grumpy roadkill bunny Scamper (Steve Buscemi), Igor decides he's ready for a bigger project. When his condescending master exits the picture, he seizes the opportunity and constructs a Bride of Frankenstein-type creature (voiced by Molly Shannon), a sweet-natured gal who looks like Picasso's version of Snow White writ large. When Igor commands her to be evil, she hears "Eva." The name sticks. Then when Igor, Scamper, and their not-so-bright buddy Brain (Sean Hayes) take her to the brainwashing clinic so they can enter her in the Evil Science Fair, Eva leaves thinking her mission is to act rather than to frighten children, so Igor convinces her the fair is a rehearsal for the musical Annie. By the conclusion of this inventive tale, creator and creature save Malaria from itself, freeing the Igors and Evas to enjoy the same rights as the scientists and the royals, like Jay Leno's King Malbert. As with Shrek and Monsters, Inc., Igor riffs on famous horror stories, while replacing scares with laughs, and the swing-era Louis Prima songs are an enjoyable touch. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

Customer Reviews

Loved It! - Kathrine I. Yamamoto - Redwood City, CA United States
Saw Igor in the theater when it came out and just had to have it. This movie is fun for kids and adults. And it's more fun for the adults, because we get more of the jokes. Well worth the purchase.

Innocuous - J. C Clark - Overland Park, KS United States
I think the general flavor of these reviews captures this small production accurately. If you are the kind of person who believes a reference to a favorite movie in another film makes that second film inherently worth viewing, then this is for you. Do you enjoy shouting aloud, "Ha! See that? They're referencing the scene in Bride of Frankenstein when Elsa Lanchester...."? If that's you, you'll be enchanted, because they invoke every old horror movie I've ever seen.

If, however, you want a film with something original, something not wretchedly PC, and something witty and clever, then I'm afraid you must go elsewhere. This is not vile, and was visually well done, and my 11 year old grandson was amused. But slight, predictable, and ever so gentle, this film genuflects at every PC altar and ignores any where quality or originality is held up.

Not really a good kids movie, or entertaining enough for adults - Elizabeth A. Philbrook - Pearland, TX United States
I was very dissappointed by this movie. Granted I knew it wasn't a blockbuster, but the whole story was flawed. The main character's companion bunny spends the entire movie depressed and trying to kill himself, but he's been genetically modified to be unkillable. So he goes through various means of trying to commit suicide and keeps living, which makes him unhappy-er. Great for kids, huh? Then the whole premise of creating things to blackmail the world to pay their town was pretty adult concept. I didn't find a whole lot of humor in the story either. I really didn't want to have my little kids (5 & 8) watching a movie where one of the characters is depressed and tries to kill himself, but after starting the movie was in an awkward situation as kids love movies. They seemed to take it stride, but I was cringing. I would not bother with this one~!

Climate Change Issues - Michael Kerjman -
It is a popular in Australia animation about a Slavic-name-called commoner who liberated his folks from a monarchy by destroying a rain-only-in-nature scum a climate-related reign had been based upon.

Nice music, nice plot also it is a bit long and too sophisticated not for kids only.
