I thought this movie was quite enjoyable, it was good for
the entire family. I also thought it was a hilarous
comedy, and a must see

I liked this movie because the effects and acting was
really good. Jessica Alba gives a great performance in
this movie along with many others.

Actors and writers out of the soaps. I'd say it comes in
a close second to "The Creature from the Black Lagoon".

Fantastic Four has a been there done that feeling to it but
it is lighthearted and fun and energetic and sweet natured.
It's too bad that Fox didn't get a better director and
screenwriter. The casting is fine but Tim Story directs
Fantastic Four as if it were a pilot episode of a new TV
series. There isn't much style or grace to the film that
elevates it past ordinary. It hardly lives up to the
title. It is not FANTASTIC but MEDIOCRE. The best part of
the film is the camraderie between Chris Evans and Michael
Chiklis and the best characters in the film is easily those
two. The Thing is the heart and soul of the film and The
Human Torch is the comic energy. Jessica Alba basically
just stars in this thing for the teenage boys who are going
to be crowding the multiplex. It has an alright origin
story to tell but after seeing this weak entry I'm not too
excited to see a sequel.

Fantastic Four is fun and entertaining, but doesn't measure
up to Batman Begins, Spiderman or other recent films based
on comic books. This is a movie in which you can sit back
and relax, and just have a good time. It's a little weak on
plot in a few places, but does have a lot of great special
effects. Although the ending doesn't measure up to this
genere of film, and seems a bit rushed, it doesn't ruin the
movie. We enjoyed the film and rate it 3 stars.

I thought this movie was very enjoyable. True, it's not
exactly Shakespeare, but then again, what comic book based
movie is? The fact that many critics didn't like this
(including Jeff Vice) shows how out of touch they are with
what makes a good popcorn movie.
