This is what "Nightmare" fans have been waiting fifteen years for. Read full review

TV Guide Magazine Ken Fox

Much of it will probably go right over the heads of kids who aren't familiar with classic movies or the naughtiness of Eddie Izzard. Read full review

Claudia Puig

If Mel Brooks were to team up with Tim Burton, the result might be something like the loony and colorfully tantalizing animated film Igor. Read full review

Peter Hartlaub

In style and tone, Igor seems more like a short from the adult-oriented "Spike & Mike's Festival of Animation." Read full review

Sean Axmaker

Too bad Igor didn't jolt the film to life with his Frankenstein shenanigans. Read full review

Janice Page

You can't blame John Cusack for jumping at the chance to play Igor. Read full review

Great, yet unfortunately, underrated film. Good laughs, voice talent, art, it was creative, and in all: Thoroughly enjoyable.

I was forced to go to this as a favor to a co-worker who was given preview tickets and didn't want to go alone. Pleasantly suprised.. laughing so loudly that it got awkward! This is a funny one!

Entertaining, amusing and creative, great score, fine script and enjoyable animation. Good voice overs. Curiously though it's not very memorable.

This was an okay movie! But not the best! I rewatched this movie and it was okay!

Igor is devilishly average.
The movie isn't bad, and it isn't good. The animation is average and there are few to no laughs. Worth seeing, but not worth remembering.

This movie was really awful. We have movie night every Saturday for the whole family and this doesn't make the grade. We watched about 1/2 of the movie and shut it off based on everyone's vote. Thumbs down.
