Review of Fantastic Four (2015) by Horizonbts — 31 Jan 2016

Well into my 50's now, I can tell you that I read a lot of comic books as a kid. I couldn't wait to go to the news stand to spend my allowance on the 10 cent comics. I was into Super Hero's and Fantastic Four was one of my favorites.

For me this movie was a disaster, too bad it failed as I really did like the casting. I have seen the young talented actors Miles Teller in movies like Whiplash, Jamie Bell in Billy Elliot/Definace, and Michael B.

Jordan on the TV series Parenthood. All can act and thought it would be over the top before it came out. Sadly for some reason they just can't bring this comic book and its characters justice. I did somewhat like the original two movies, but they still weren't quite the ticket either and came up short.

This last installment with all that talent that they had was truly a huge disappointment. The depth of the script felt shallow and the action wasn't there either. The only depiction I found interesting was with Doctor Doom both in acting and the effects.

Actually as bad as it was, I was still hoping with all the talent it would get another go around, but hear that they have already axed the sequel-too bad.
