Blown 3/4 away

Rating: 9/10 (8 July 2005)

Besides the cheesy dialog and obnoxious chest shots of Alba, I really enjoyed Fantastic Four. The powers (effects) were really done in top form and looked almost how I would have imagined they should be from the comic-book pages. The banter between Johnny and Ben was great and really added to my experience. I didn't like how Sue and Doom were "close" in the beginning, it took away from the original stories of how they were all knew each other in there teens. Doom was good and Julian McMahon did the job justice, and I liked the twist with how he and his powers developed. But the one big fight scene was too short and really only justified Reed's powers, even though the others did look good i thought reed was the best overall (even though Sue is my fav character in the comics, I didn't really expect that much from Alba).Johnny looked great when he was engulfed in flame and The Thing looks better on the big screen than in the previews. Overall I had fun and got into it. But being a huge fan of "THE WORLDS GRETEST COMIC MAGAZINE" probably helped as well. I have been waiting for this movie forever. Hope I wasn't too brief of didn't contradict myself, or make myself look like an ass!
