Not all that fantastic but it is still cool

Rating: 7/10 (15 July 2005)

The Fantastic Four is about five people going into space to study a deadly cloud of radioactivity to discover the origin of human genes. The mission goes awry when the cloud hit the space craft and changed the people inside it. Dr. Richards became the stretchable Mr. Fantastic, Susan Storm became the Invisible Woman, Susans brother Johny became the wild Human Torch, and Ben Grimm became the powerful Thing equaling the Fantastic Four. Sadly the fifth person has became an evil mastermind, his body molding into medal for him to control electricity under the persona of the evil Dr. Doom. Can the Fantastic Four defeat Dr. Doom? Now Fantastic Four isn't a perfect film and it's not the best Marvel Comic Book movie. But it's better than the a few other failures like Hulk or Daredevil. Fantastic Four is cool with good acting, a great storyline, and really impressive graphics. First off The Thing was great! He looked amazing and the actor was born to play the role. The acting is all played wonderfully by actors like Jessica Alba and Julian McMahon, and if you can try to point out Stan Lee's cameo as the mailman. Each one of the characters has their own thought of their powers and how to control them. Richards wants to be normal and he tries to make a cure, Susan wants to be normal while running around and taking off her clothes to get away from the press, Johny though goes along with his powers to become famous, and Ben hates his power because he lost his girlfriend. The special affects are nice though sometimes you can tell when it's fake and cheesy. Though not full out fantastic, Fantastic Four succeeds in being a cool super hero comic film with lots of action, a little comedy, and some drama. Fantastic Four gets the big 7, flawed in many ways but still a great film. Recommnded for everyone. Enjoy!
