Limited. Not limitless.

If Frankenstein’s birth (or lack of a better term) is not enough, the movie brought another resurrection, Frankenstein’s bride.  Frankenstein’s maker, Henry was coerced by Frankenstein and encouraged by Dr. Pretorius to repeat what he did and make another one. 

What I dislike about the idea of resurrection is the fact that science is taking over the role of God (if you believe in such things) and that is to create life.  Coming from a science high school, science truly has its merits.  It makes our life better through its inventions, discoveries and innovations.  On the contrary, I believe that science has its limits, especially when it comes to things concerning life.  Life is something that cannot be experimented or tested upon, it is something precious that we all have to value. Science and morality has a borderline - and this is THE border line.  I think it’s one thing that scientists should keep in mind, science has its limits.  


The monster was made dumb because the director wants to emphasized the mistake done when a scientist plays with the life of a dead person. On a lighter note, the monster was made dumb to make the scenes more genuine.  It shows a lighter (and perhaps a funnier) side of the monster.  It balances out the idea the monsters are violent.  It shows a human behind badly composed physical exteriors.
