Enjoyable romp through the comics

Rating: 9/10 (11 July 2005)

I have been a fan for years and felt this movie captured the essence of FF. Those who don't like the movie are obviously the types who hate any movie that was not directed by them or did not come to their houses asking their opinion. After the debacle that was Daredevil I thought this movie got it right. The action was well paced and the skills were well represented. Mr. Fantastic is an easy character to make look like a cheap Stretch Armstrong ripoff but they did him quite well. Overall a great movie for both kids and adults!
While it is not Batman Begins, I would not take my 6 year old to that. This was one movie that I could take her to without worrying too much. She thought it was great as well.
