Review: "Igor"


Seen on: September 20, 2008
The players:
Director: Anthony Leondis, Writers: David Koepp, John Kamps,
Cast (Voices): John Cusack, Steve Buscemi, John Cleese, Jay Leno, Jennifer Coolidge
Facts of interest: This is an American-French coproduction.
The plot: Igor (Cusack), the servant of an evil scientist, dreams of creating a monster and win the annual Evil Science Fair.
Our quick thoughts: “Igor” is a film packed with great ideas that are sloppily executed. I know it may be a harsh thing to say, but Anthony Leondis’ big-screen debut falls victim to a disappointing script that clearly undermines an excellent voice cast and a decent animation.
