This is the Reason Why I Don't Watch Action Films

by ispeakup , Jul 03 '07
Pros: The surfer dude is a cutie.
Cons: It's just a very bad movie.
I grew up in the age of comic books, and adored the Fantastic Four. To see them characterized this way is sacrilege. I went with a friend who adores all things inane and superficial, and as he was visiting, I didn't quibble with him about his choice. ...

Synopsis of a Predictable movie

by dontreadthis , Jun 30 '07
Pros: Jessica Alba burns off her clothes
Cons: After burning off her clothes, Jessica Alba turns invisible
I swore I would not see the second fantastic four after the first fantastic abomination, but the silver surfer seemed like a cool character, so I went anyways. I must say, it was better than the first; just like 0 is greater than -10. While surpassing ...

A Fitting Sequel...With More To Come

by napsat2 , Jun 29 '07
Pros: The storyline, performances by Chiklis and Evans
Cons: The fast movement in surfing scenes with Evans were annoying
With Victor Von Doom (Julian McMahon) locked away in storage at the finish of the first Fantastic Four big screen flick, the Fantastic Four were living their lives as normally as they could. With endorsements covering their new superhero costumes, fame ...

Tide's Out and Surfer's Lost

by ralph-nader , Jul 09 '07
Pros: Most intriguing sci-fi character to hit the silver screen on a surfboard in some time
Cons: Jan & Dean meet Kierkegaard but get shortchanged for Summer hot bods
For a brief year or so pre-puberty, I was a big comics book fan. But I got over it (comic books, that is); I think girls may have had something to do with that. So this is less a heartfelt cry of pain about how the latest “Fantastic Four: Rise ...

Not Fantastic; This could have been great!

by jpm4444 , Nov 03 '07
Pros: Special Effects; Silver Surfer character
Cons: Alba and Evans can't act, Dumb Plot, mindless
I still dont get it. Probably the most anticipated comic book hero's and they come out with this? What people dont' remember is that they made another terrible Fantastic 4 movie in 1985 that was so bad they never released it in the U.S. Where are ...

Four Freaks and the Silver Surfer

by earthgone , Oct 19 '07
Pros: CGI okay
Cons: Story, acting, stupid humor, pointless villains
Superhero movies are great, but when they're as stupid as the "Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer," it makes you understand why there are villains who hate them. Further hindering the film is Victor Doom who doesn't even come across as ...

Good movie, not as good as the first though.

by kiyanalynn , Jul 24 '08
Pros: Good graphics and fight scenes.
Cons: The acting was not as good as the first movie.
This movie overall was average when it comes to the plot. The acting was in my opinion, cheesier than in the first and Jessica Alba looked very plastic in this movie. I was impressed with the graphics and the fight scenes were amusing but the dialog ...

Fantastic 5 yes five

by d206 , Aug 02 '08
Pros: storyline,family fun
Cons: movie I thought was actually short
well this movie had all the original cast back which is always good. Not a bad movie but would not pay to watch in theaters. Then again this a movie is pretty much for kids, at least that is my opinion about it. Storyline is new and different. A new ...

Fantastic Four: Rise of the silver Surfer

by ls0408 , Jul 10 '08
Pros: Didn't loose any points to the previous one. Good special effects
Cons: Nothing
Once again, a movie based on a comic story. The hero in all of us wants to see this movie. It is a great story with some action, I thought there would be more action. The live lesson taught to all of us; It is never easy to be important and a hero in ...

I loved it
by scamwb ,Jun 25 '07
Pros: Plenty of action, good acting, great special effects, an excellent example of this genre
Cons: Could have been a bit longer
I really liked this movie. I liked the first one too. It has plenty of action and for the type of movie it is (comic book action film) it delivers plenty of thrills. I thought the script was well written. I know some people carp about it not being true to the comic but I say "who cares?". Its not an academy award drama but it is not supposed to be. It was better than Spiderman 3 and X Men 3, 2 films who have overextended their franchises. I liked the interaction between the leads and the dialogue was crisp and well written. Reminded me of the Mummy movies which were great fun to watch and didn't receive sparkling reviews. A must see in the theater and not on home video because because of the special effects. A rollicking good time.

An entertaining way to spend a couple of hours
by mrbeachy ,Jun 23 '07
Pros: Excellent special effects.Interesting story line.
Cons: Thin plot at times;ends without an ending so there will be a sequel.
I saw fantastic four at my local cinema earlier this evening. I was expecting to be bored but it turned out to be entertaining. The story line was quite good and it has some excellent special effects.

All i will say is that the story picks up from where the first movie leaves off,and the fantastic four have to battle demons and evil characters that threaten to destroy the world.

SS
by angellduvall ,Jan 07 '08
Pros: some
Cons: lots
To tell you the truth if you're just looking to turn off your brain for nearly 2 hours, watch some cute guys on screen (Julian McMahon and Chris Evans), and you like a happy ending then rent or buy this. Though Jessica Alba is very beautiful she is a terrible actress and in this movie she actually looks a little scary with the white blonde wig (too blonde), the "too" blue contacts, and caked up white makeup on her naturally tanned complexion. Overall, the first one wasn't a box office smash and it was a little watered down so I don't know what genius (ahem...) greenlighted this movie but I must admit I enjoyed it.

Cheesy
by dsimmons502 ,Aug 07 '07
Pros: Evil was good. Silver Surfer Special Effects the best.
Cons: Good Guys Cheesy, no character!
The acting, premise and special effects were all sort of cheesy to me. I liked the first one much better. Please, Jessica Alba go back to being smart and tough and the blond hair has got to go. The other characters were too sappy except for my favorite, Dr. Doom...evil to the end. At least he stayed in character.

Worth Seeing
by lunatik96 ,Mar 18 '08
Pros: Great Sci Fi
Cons: Better casting needed.
The Silver Surfer is an enigmatic wanderer. A slave of Galactus. The F4 show him the error of his ways.
The acting is ho hum, Reed falls flat in his humor although there are some funny bending moments. Johnny Storm is cocky as he should be while Ben is characteristically melancholy. Alba as Sue is OK but too much time goes to Reed Richards and the actor isn't that great.
