Review of Fantastic Four (2005) by Jacob — 25 Jul 2015
Fantastic Four’s decent cast, serviceable banter, and amazing effects on the Thing both in looks and character show the crew has some handle on the group but unfortunately the story gives them nothing to work with.
Once the group gets there powers nothing happens. Little action, no crime fighting just characters sitting around and doing nothing until the last 10/15 where the audience witnesses a decent fight with a poor quality Doom.
With the way comicbook movies have evolved over the years this film becomes even more of a joke/cheesefest as time goes on. Thankfully, the sequel, which this film surprisingly got, picked up the pace a bit and regardless of its problems was better and somewhat resembled what a Fantastic Four movie should be.
Hopefully the reboot will continue the trend.
