NO!!!!! NO!!!!!!!!!! I feel so dirty. I defended this film. I said to my friends that we needed to not be so close minded. We needed to wait. It could be great. Well this movie, and the studio that produced it DO NOT CARE. They spit on the fans, and then they did a little dance after spitting on us, as if to say " Neener neener neener!" It's a total cash grab!!!!! Whats the story? How did it get so bad?
"The Fantastic Four" stars Miles Teller, Jamie Bell, Michael B Jordan, Kate Mara, Toby Kebbell, Reg E Cathey and Tim Blake Nelson. To not give away the premise of the F4, and how they get their powers, They become Super humans when they return from another dimension One, Mr Fantastic, can stretch into anything, The invisable woman, is well, invisable, The Human torch can fly like a speedy fireball, and one is, well, the Thing. Kind of a solid rock version of the HULK with a better vocabulary.
Aside from the actors being wasted with a script so full of plot holes you could mistake it for a piece of Swiss cheese, the action is horrible, and not helpful to what isn't bad in the film, namely Jamie Bell, as THE THING. Reg E Cathey plays Professor Storm, and while doing the best with a craptastic script, I never quite understood why he needed to be apart of this. It takes an hour and a half for the Fantastic 4 to get their powers, and to be honest by then I was wondering, " Why am I still here?"Dr. Doom's villain as a character is not scary at all, and when the final showdown happens, its in the last 10 minutes of the film, and by then, you just don't care.
THE VERDICT
Don't go see it. It will be two hours of your life you will never get back.
I give the "Fantastic Four," a D-.
