How the F#@K could they make Galactus a cloud???

Rating: 9/10 (18 June 2007)

I really liked how the movie maintained the flavor of the comic book, but I don't understand how they could ever think that a gigantic space cloud would be cooler than Galactus.
The inter-personal conflicts of the characters struggling to maintain their own identities within the confines of being super heroes drives the narrative. The concept of a villain that is driven to worship a massive deity of destruction is an interesting choice.
There were a lot of things about this movie that worked, and very little that didn't, though an amount of suspended belief is possible. It is a bit implausible that Sue would be able to have a conversation with Norrin Radd (The Silver Surfer) in the middle of a detention center, but that kind of thing happened in the comic books all of the time. It was also refreshing seeing the character defending the values of capitalism being characterized as selfish, and having to learn to work as a team.
The film was definitely worth seeing, and though some chemistry was present between Sue, it was definitely portrayed in a way that would not affect children.
