Same tack as Spiderman but better

Rating: 7/10 (16 June 2007)

Ten years ago moves based on comic books were created for kids and adults considered them idiotic. The heroes were idealistic cretins and the villains were one-dimensional idiots like Schwarzenegger in Batman & Robin.
Fortunately, Hollywood has finally understood that their audience has grown up and have started making comic book movies that adults can enjoy. The pinnacle of that sudden IQ infusion was Batman Begins with Christian Bale.
Silver Surfer is nowhere close to that but still provides an enjoyable superhero movie. It still suffers from tacky "lets talk about our feelings" moments, but thankfully it keeps them to a minimum and instead provides a lot of humor and action.
If you enjoy comic book movies you should enjoy this one. It's not the best in its genre but it's still good entertainment.
