Weak

Rating: 4/10 (5 September 2005)

No idea how people can rate this 10/10 with a straight face, pages and pages of studio shills it seems. Anyway, the plot is panfully thin, you could write the entire thing down on the back of postage stamp. Yes it's a superhero movie so it's never going to be deep, but this just seems very shallow compared to X-Men or Spiderman movies. And he Jessica Alba clothes off moment is completely without reason, it's obviously just in to sell a few more tickets.
The characters mostly seem flat, lifeless, cardboard cut-outs of people we know nothing about and so it's hard to care about them. The actors don't seem excited by their characters either, maybe it's me but it seemed like a lot of the time they were just saying their lines instead of acting. And, Dr Doom is especially weak, he is supposed be threatening or scary I thought, this Doom is neither. He tops out at 'some random guy in a bad mood'.
As a pilot of TV series it's OK, as a movie it doesn't cut it. Not a 10, not even close.
