Ijust think that Frankenstein was a misguided man who made a tragicmistake, albeit a largish one to which he had to accept theconsequences. The creature was also misguided, his treatment fromothers led to him becoming a monster but he realized this and did the responsibility thing in the end, showing that he was just misunderstood.
