3. Review: 'Lisa Frankenstein' is less than the sum of its parts

  • Feb 20, 2024 · The cinematography is well-done, with interesting lighting and creative camera work. The set design is impressive, layered with details that ...

  • “Lisa Frankenstein” is a horror/comedy directed by Zelda Williams and written by Diablo Cody of “Jennifer’s Body” fame. While the film is aesthetic to the max, has interesting cinematography and includes some satisfying performances, it fails to live up to Cody’s previous works. The protagonist is foundationally unlikable, the tonal shifts will give you whiplash and its focus on references of other, better movies just reminds you that you could (and really should) be watching something else.

  • I have a suspicion that Lisa Frankenstein will end up being one of 2024’s most rewatchable releases. It has plenty of issues, and goodness knows director Zelda Williams and Academy Award–winning screenwriter Diablo Cody (Juno) do not end up fully exploring several intriguing plot strands. But the film is so gosh darn adorable that I honestly don’t care. I laughed throughout, and even with all the goofily dismembered mayhem, there was an innate sweetness that captured my heart and refused to let it go.
