Entering a FUN ZONE. Don't take things too seriously.

Rating: 6/10 (1 December 2005)

Fantatstic Four is one of the best dumb films to come out in 2005. I mean, it's got the action, the cute chick, the cheesy one-liners, and great special effects. But it also has a touch of soul (most notably in the character the Thing). This is one of those summer blockbuster types that knows it's not a serious movie, therefore it doesn't take itself too seriously. Sure there are plot holes, and many of the characters are one-dimensional, but c'mon, this is not Shakespeare, and the great thing is, it doesn't pretend to be either.
If you're looking for some good ol' wholesome fun without having to read too deep into the meanings of what's going on in front of you, then this is the perfect movie for that occasion.
