IN THE BATTLE BETWEEN GOOD AND EVIL, AN IMMORTAL HOLDS THE KEY. 

200 years after he was created in a lab, Frankenstein’s monster (Aaron Eckhart) finds himself in the middle of a war between gargoyles and demons. This 3D update of the Mary Shelley story looks like a second-rate chapter in the Underworld franchise, with lots of uninspired battles and a dark, ponderous atmosphere. Bill Nighy is always fun, but sleepwalks through his character; Eckhart is no more interesting than a Christopher Lambert lookalike in hoodie and jeans.
