Bad and not in a good way

Rating: 2/10 (16 November 2007)

A wedding, and a Silver Surfer comes streaking in across the sky to mess things up. The Surfer comes to prepare planet Earth for destruction. Can't he wait until the vows are said? Can the Four save the planet? Will the wedding ever take place again? Some Inquiring minds want to know.
One would think that The One who made the movie would watch it before putting it out there for Other Ones to see. If The One had done that The One would have seen that the voices all sounded dubbed in and everyone acted like they were in a dream-state and hence no excitement was to be found. And, The One would go back to the drawing board. The One didn't do that and here we are with something kids would only groove on when the CGI kicked in if they waited for the Silver Surfer to appear. And, the CGI was very good, but it cannot a movie make.
This was like a rehearsal, a walk thru. Was I the only one to see it that way? I think people who do movies on comic-book superheroes need to get away from the comic-book dialogue. It works for the comics, but not in the movies that I watch. I noticed that most critics who get paid to watch this stuff said this one was better than the first one. No, it wasn't. The CGI was better but as I said that doesn't make it a movie. The acting..well, let me put it this way: the acting was like everyone showed up and knew a few lines and then waited around for someone to feed them the rest of the story so to speak.
It is said this was for the kids. Give me a break, the kids would have boogied long ago.
Now, why did I bother to watch this movie? Why to see Jessica Alba of course. But, she added nothing to the show. Absolutely nothing. She is a good actress who wasn't used right. None of the actors were used right.
You know, sometimes Inquiring Minds want to know too much.
