Movie Reviews

Portland Oregonian - 10/10 by Shawn LevyMel Brooks is home with Young Frankenstein, his most disciplined and visually inventive film (it also happens to be very funny).
Paste Magazine - 10/10 by Jim VorelThere are few comedies in Hollywood history more universally beloved than the likes of Mel Brooks’ Young Frankenstein, but perhaps the most impressive thing about that adoration is the fact that for many viewers it was earned without anything more than the barest conception of how effective a parody the film truly is.
Collider - 10/10 by Mike ShuttIn addition to just being side-splittingly funny, Young Frankenstein is an aesthetic triumph.
Arizona Daily Star - 10/10 by Phil VillarrealHey, our man Brooks never claimed to have good taste. Bless him.

Common Sense Media - 10/10 by Scott G. MignolaBrooks' corniness yields plenty of belly laughs.
Chicago Sun-Times - 10/10 by Roger EbertMel Brooks is home with Young Frankenstein, his most disciplined and visually inventive film (it also happens to be very funny).
Flavorwire - 10/10 by Jason BaileyThe Brooks of 'Young Frankenstein' isn't really skewering the conventions of the horror movie - he's paying tribute to them, and using them as scaffolding for his particular brand of goofy, Borscht Belt burlesque.
Slant Magazine - 9/10 by Dan JardineThis is a fine horror film that also turns (miraculously) into an existential tale of man's fear of abandonment
Cinema Crazed - 9/10 by Felix Vasquez Jr.One of Mel Brooks' most brilliant and immortal cinematic works to date...
