Common Sense Note

Parents need to know that I, Frankenstein is an action/sci-fi movie, based on a comic book, that recasts the famous monster as a new kind of superhero, with super-speed and strength, and immortality. Most of the movie consists of fantasy fighting, with blades and martial arts weapons. When defeated, characters disappear into fire and light, with very little blood; the main character sustains one minor, bleeding wound so that the female character can dress it. The sculpted, chiseled main character is shown shirtless in one scene, and female characters wear somewhat sexy outfits, but otherwise sex is not an issue.

Sexual Content

The main character is shown shirtless, emphasizing his sculpted arms, chest, and abs. Some of the female characters are dressed in sexy outfits.

Violence

The movie features constant fantasy fighting. The hero uses two heavy sticks to beat up bad guys. Various blades are also used. When villains are dispatched, they simply turn into fire and disappear. When the good guys are dispatched, they turn into blue light and ascend into the sky. The main character is wounded and the female lead stitches up a cut on his back. Only a little blood is ever shown. There's a slightly disturbing lab experiment where characters attempt to resurrect a dead rat. A giant cavern is shown, filled with dead bodies hanging on hooks, all waiting to be resurrected.

Language

There's one use of "s--t."

Social Behavior

The movie has a muddled message about teamwork, where the main character must choose which side to fight with during a war, but in the end, he appears to have become a lone wolf again.
