Wolff Movie Index

Young Frankenstein(Late 70s(?))

Wolff rating: GOOD

Plot summary: The standard Frankenstein story done Mel Brooks-style; mad scientist brings monster alive, but doesn't get the results he expects.

Biased, pithy comments: Brooks didn't screw this one up. There is still the tendency to give you a two-beat after every joke, but there are enough jokes and enough quirkiness that it's fun to watch.

Other Notes: Many jokes from this one re-used in ``Robin Hood''.

How many times I have seen it: ~3

Starring: Gene Wilder, Marty Feldman
Directed by: Mel Brooks
