More precious than the first!

Rating: 8/10 (15 June 2007)

Marvel Comics fans, wait no longer! "Fantastic 4: Rise of the Silver Surfer" has sailed on in. Reed Richards aka "Mr. Fantastic"(Ioan Gruffud), Sue Storm aka "The Invisible Woman"(Jessica Alba), Johnny Storm aka "The Human Torch"(Chris Evans), and "The Thing" aka Ben Grimm(Michael Chiklis) are back again to save the world from evil. This time the menace is known as the Silver Surfer aka Norrin Radd. However, the real threat isn't him, it's his master Galactus: The Devourer of worlds. When the group encounter strange phenomenas in certain parts of the worlds, the closest thing that can happen, will certainly hit home. I liked the part when Johnny Storm went after the Surfer and the touch affect his powers. When he touched his sister, he was out of sight, she was just hot. The embarrassment occurred when she landed naked, as usual! The real cool scene is when he got Thing's power. Ben Grimm got the last laugh. The bachelor party scene was cool. Reed really got the party started when he loosened up. The return of Dr. Victor Von Doom(Julian McMahon) was inevitable. He's back to his old schemes as usual, wanting more power. I liked it when The Torch got all the powers of his teammates and said the Thing's quote, "It's clobberin' time!" The next thing would the attraction of Skrulls. Johnny really put a hurting on Doom. And for the Surfer, Susan really got through to him. And he did return the favor to her when Doom downed her. I enjoyed this movie from beginning to end, it was a lot more fun than the first. A little bit toned down, but with the Silver Surfer, this movie is golden! 3.5 out of 5 stars!
