Movie Reviews of Young Frankenstein

Movie Review: Mel Brook's Finest
Summary: 5 Stars

Mel Brooks is one of those comedic people you love...or hate (whatever). But I think everyone can appreciate his contribution to the genre. I find this particular film, when quoted randomly at parties, in public, with perfect strangers, still gets me the highest fives, the biggest laughs, and the most nostalgic nods from fans of every walk of life. You know why? Because it's genius and classic. In fact, if someone doesn't wax nostalgia over this piece of cinemagic magic, they should be flogged or pitied for their lack of joy in the world.

Movie Review: one of the best spoofs ever
Summary: 5 Stars

Young Frankenstein - Mel Brooks - New Movie Poster - 27x39 Movie Poster

Mel Brooks comic spoof of the 1930's era horror films hits dead on. It is without a doubt one of the funniest movies ever made. Gene Wilder is not better anywhere, not to mention the stellar performances of the late great Madeleine Khan and Marty Feldman. Somehow, even the cheesiest humor shown in this movie is funny-but isn't that a Mel Brooks signature?

Movie Review: Very nearly a perfect film.
Summary: 5 Stars

Mel Brooks gives us the greatest spoof/homage of a classic ever. The decision to shoot it in black and white was inspired. I don't think there's a single actor in this movie that doesn't shine. The way Gene Wilder plays it so straight despite the ridiculousness going on around him is priceless. And throw in innocent Teri Garr delivering some of the naughtiest lines?

I could go on and on, but there's really no point. This is a classic. Pick it up and enjoy the laughs. You won't regret it.

Movie Review: Fantastic, Even For A Younger Generation
Summary: 5 Stars

My dad has always been a big movie fan, so I had a lot of exposure starting at a young age. For the youth of today, many older "classics" simply do not have enough action or special effects to keep us interested. Young Frankenstein is an exception to this. Without any special effects or action at all really, this movie is so rawly funny that it can keep anyone laughing the whole time. If you are looking for a solid movie that will keep all ages laughing through the whole movie, look no further.

Movie Review: Great Entertainment!
Summary: 5 Stars

This just might be the funniest movie ever made. Brook's, Wilder's and the entire crew's efforts created scene after scene of flawless timing, great characterizations, and 'classic' comedy.
The 'extras' on this DVD version have deleted scenes which serve to confirm that some of Brook's best work on this film was in the editing room -- the finished product is much better without the scenes he chose to leave out.
It's great fun that can be watched and enjoyed over and over again.
