Michael Billington, The Guardian (2011. febru�r 24.)

"In performance, it is also fascinating to compare the two actors. Cumberbatch's Creature is unforgettable. "Tall as a pine tree," as the text insists, he has humour as well as pathos: his naked entry into the world is marked by a totter on splayed feet and, when he moves, it is with a forward-thrusting, angular, almost Hulotesque curiosity. But there is also an epic grandeur about Cumberbatch. As he quotes Paradise Lost, his voice savours every syllable of Milton's words and when, in outrage at his rejection by the exile's family, he burns their cottage, he utters a Hamletesque cry of "I sweep to my revenge." It is an astonishing performance."

"The dynamic of the duo works best with Miller providing the muscle and the pathos, Cumberbatch the flamboyant, cerebral chill."

Charles Spencer - The Telegraph

Paul Taylor - The Independent

"Broadly speaking, Cumberbatch emphasises the intellectual edge of both roles; Lee Miller takes us further into the feeling. The latter superbly communicates the Creature's aching need for contact in the scene where Frankenstein tricks and torments him with the sight and touch of a beautiful Bride only to hack her to bits. Cumberbatch is brilliant at conveying the blackly ridiculous aspects of the hubristic Scientist."

Ben Brantley - The New York Times

"Unfortunately the Creature is more compelling than his creator here. Though this play (like the novel) presents its man and superman as different sides of the same personality, only the monster persuasively grabs our empathy, and it’s fortunate that both Mr. Miller and Mr. Cumberbatch have been given a shot at him."
