The premiere of 'Lisa Frankenstein' in Los Angeles has garnered attention, with stars Kathryn Newton and Cole Sprouse, director Zelda Williams, and writer/producer Diablo Cody making appearances. The film, a horror romantic comedy, has sparked interest as it is set in the same universe as 'Jennifer's Body.' Reviews have been mixed, with some praising the reimagining of the horror and comedy genres, while others criticize its construction and pacing.
Review: Much of ‘Lisa Frankenstein’ is aimless, a fun enough concept staged with no real sense of purpose. Read VF’s full review of a film: https://t.co/uPTlceReog https://t.co/eP4tWIpM6T
“Lisa Frankenstein” may have a killer Pixies needle-drop and a “Rocky Horror Picture Show” reference that makes it clear where Diablo Cody’s heart lies, but those flourishes are wasted on a film that struggles with the basics of its own construction. https://t.co/lHS8wtUocV https://t.co/6YtyiY7QvG

"Despite its dazzling style and a handful of laughs, 'Lisa Frankenstein' takes far too long to get properly weird, its freakish moxie hindered by plodding editing that keeps this wannabe midnight movie at the pace of an afternoon siesta," @colemanjspilde https://t.co/Oseb2ZQLer

Review: ‘Lisa Frankenstein’ is a steadfast throwback to the worlds of ‘Heathers’ and ‘Edward Scissorhands,’ but mostly shrinks in the shadow of that which it’s imitating. 🔗: https://t.co/ptprEgmvB0 https://t.co/Z7z4LSq0jM

REVIEW: We rarely see British cop shows acknowledge racism especially within the police. And stars Cush Jumbo and Peter Capaldi. are sharp as ever. But like so many TV series, Apple's 8-episode "Criminal Record" shoulda been a movie instead. By @Nina_Metz https://t.co/MICa4qwezi
