Generic Superheroes Save the Wolrd Again!

Rating: 5/10 (1 December 2005)

We've all been here before. Normal People become superheroes and have to have an also new threat evil threat. Now sometimes these stories can be saved by good acting and developing a tight story line (ie: Spiderman). However, FF4 is a lame story with lame dialogue (woman:your hot, human torch/johnny storm: thanks so are you). Now for the record I have nothing against the FF4-they can stop Dr. Doom any day of the week as far as I'm concerned and the action in this movie is actually not as bad as everything else. Here's a tip to directors of superhero movies: comic nerds like to see their heroes fight-not just sit around and do nothing for seventy minutes. This movie is bad at worst and generic at best. My advice-watch the ten-fifteen minute fight with Dr Doom, that'll be really all there is to enjoy-but hey what do i know; I only attend Comic Conventions, play Magic the Gathering and am a film major to boot.
