Fantastic four to the rescue!

Rating: 8/10 (8 November 2007)

This film has had a lot of bad reviews and has been labelled a let down, but I think if people just watched it for what it is and did not compare it to any other marvel film they would realise it actually is a very good film. This film is just the right film to watch when you're in the mood for a fun, relaxing, family film with good actors and good special effects. Any comic book lovers will love this film but if you're not you will still love it. Everyone know that basic storyline. Four scientists Reed Richards, Susan Storm, Ben Grimm and Johnny Storm head off to space with Victor Von Doom and get hit by a cosmic storm. Once they are all awake again in Victor's medical facilities they realise they have these unique powers. Reed, being able to stretch, Susan Being able to go invisible, Ben turning into a big, rock creature, and Johnny being able to set himself on fire and fly. They come to terms with their powers and realise they can use them to fight the forces of evil in the form of Dr. Doom, who is wreaking havoc as a metal electric villain. All five actors are exactly what this film needed, they couldn't of had a better cast if they tried. They can all carry off the hilarious lines, the serious lines, the sad lines all perfect. This film has a very kiddy feel to it and you know that there is no chance anything bad could happen to any of them. It's just a totally relaxed film, you can tell they must of had a lot of fun filming it and it's just a lot of fun to watch. I really enjoyed it so please forget about spider-man and x-men, watch fantastic four!
