PRO REVIEWS

----------------------------------------
"Tim Burton's loving, funny ode to vintage horror movies is a wonder. (...) The best thing about an animated monster movie with this much heart is: It's alive. In the best possible way." (Connie Ogle: Miami Herald)

----------------------------------------
"A sweet and creepy homage to classic monster movies." (A. O. Scott: The New York Times)

----------------------------------------
"Only Tim Burton could envision this Frankenstein-inspired tale, and it's a honey, a dark and dazzling spellbinder that scares up laughs and surprising emotion. (...) Rating: ***1/2 (out of four)" (Peter Travers: Rolling Stone)

----------------------------------------
"The resulting homage to Frankenstein in particular and horror movies in general is exquisite, macabre mayhem and a kind of reanimation all its own" (Lisa Schwarzbaum: Entertainment Weekly)

----------------------------------------
"This isn't one of Burton's best, but it has zealous energy (...) Rating: *** (out of four)" (Roger Ebert: Chicago Sun-Times)

----------------------------------------
"The year’s most inventive, endearing animated feature. [According to TIME Magazine: the 10th best Movie of the year 2012]" (Richard Corliss: Time)
