Just another way to spend the money

Rating: 6/10 (7 July 2007)

Let me start with my subjective impressions. On the next day after seeing this, I was asked:
"Where did ya go yesterday?"
,well I said "To some movie, y'know";
"Which one?"
"Um... uh... well, y'know.. it had some superheroes.. I guess?" ... Well, this summer is sure full of CGI movies. Fantastic Four being one of them, it was not in my watch list at the beginning, but then friends asked me to come and, with nothing better to do, here I was, sitting in the cinema. Well, at first it did seem better than I imagined, although it soon turned out to be JUST AS lame as I imagined. Lol.
The special effects are all unrealistic and looks like some video game, except maybe the chase of Silver Surfer guy that was previewed in the trailer. Nothing surprised me. Nothing excited me. The movie had a few laughs, some mocked-up "last battle against evil" scene, but nothing could be called memorable or cool.
The main heroes did get some development, but I think even Spidey 3 could surpass this film here (and yes, that's bad). Actually, those few emotional problems characters are facing seem remarkably similar to Peter Parker's ones (wedding, overconfidence), although this movie doesn't see anything bad about being overconfident in the end.
Well I'd say you may go to this movie only if you want to KILL time. It doesn't have anything in it. It's shallow, and you will probably spend your time chatting with the girl on the right. As I did, in fact. I'm putting 6/10 only because I later managed to spend a beautiful evening with that girl. On the other hand, she stole my wallet. Oh well.
