AniInterview Sorry, this movie sucks

Wordiezett So much average

UnowPriceless hyped garbage

Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

thor-teague Garbage.But seriously, why even bother. I'm not so much angry with Hollywood as I am disappointed with the American movie-going public. Hollywood thinks we're gullible jackasses and they're right.Rise of the Silver Surfer is high in the running as absolute epitome of Hollywood complacency and mediocrity, in close competition with Eragon, Snakes on a Plane, and Meet the Spartans. There's something mystically worse about a film that's so profoundly mediocre as ROTSS as opposed to "so-brain-gratingly-bad-it's-good," as was the case with your Space Mutinies or your Manoses or your Three Men And A Babieses.How anyone can consider this crap entertaining enough to warrant even so much as a rental, hell, to even warrant 100 minutes of their life, is beyond my comprehension. After Kill Bill? After Die Hard? After X-Men? After Sin City? After 300? Are you serious? How much more obvious could it get that the director--hell, everybody involved, even Stan Lee himself--doesn't even care? Aren't you insulted? Do YOU care? I'm to the point that I no longer hate Hollywood for producing garbage of this ilk. I now am much more disappointed with you, the viewing public.Let me tell you something, straight up. If you don't care about finding that special something that, if not transcendent of mere entertainment is at LEAST crafted by people who give a damn, you don't love movies. You're a poser. Period. This unending deluge of Hollywood tripe is your fault, not theirs. Get out of my playground and stay out.So cast your no votes and pat yourself on the back. You'll have forgotten all about this little piece of disposable kitsch before you know it, but somewhere inside yourself, subconsciously, will remain the harsh truth. Get real or get lost.I exclude 0-15 year olds from this tongue lashing. Around 16 or so, you should have enough figured out to know better.

adonis98-743-186503 The Fantastic Four learn that they aren't the only super-powered beings in the universe when they square off against the powerful Silver Surfer and the planet-eating Galactus. Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer might not be the greatest Marvel film of all time but for sure it's way better than the reboot which was boring and killed the F4 once and for all. Chris Evans, Jessica Alba, Ioan Gruffudd and Michael Chiklis return as the Fantastic 4 once again and they are all great in their roles as for Julian McMahon as Dr. Doom? So far he is the best Doom we got and that says a lot he also looks like Doom and not a kryptonite robot and i loved Silver Surfer with this whole shiny metal that he is covered with and he rides his board and he becomes cool in less than 2 seconds he is played by Doug Jones and voiced by Laurence Fishburne. Now the problems with this film is easily Galactus himself cause instead of a giant purple/blue guy we get a cloud and it makes no sense, also the film has some pretty laughable cgi mostly upon Mr. Fantastic and it doesn't have a lot of action as it should but overall it's a nice pop corn movie that it does it's job well unlike the remake 8/10.

Leofwine_draca I loathed the first FANTASTIC FOUR movie with a passion, so when I saw that this sequel was on TV I wasn't really considering watching it. In the event, nothing else was on, so I decided to give it a try. It was everything I expected, and nothing more.The best thing you can say about this film is that it's slightly better than the first. I find 'origin' stories long-winded and often boring, but that's not the case here. The film straight away gets on with the (slim) plot, so there's not a lot of time for boredom. However, there is a lot of silliness, mostly involving some excruciating CGI effects used to animate Ioan Gruffudd's stretchy arms and legs.Amid this kid's stuff, there's a very, very thin plot about the titular character, who flies around the world, causing disaster and making craters in the ground. After a couple of lacklustre set-pieces at the London Eye and Black Forest, there's an unsurprising twist, a briefly seen and rather ludicrous super-baddie (the size of a planet) and the unwelcome return of ultra-stiff actor Julian McMahon as the ludicrously named villain, Victor Von Doom.Gruffudd has the decency to look mildly embarrassed at all this, and Jessica Alba's acting is absolutely diabolical. Chris Evans is, once again, irritating, and only Michael Chiklis seems to be having fun as the guy made out of rock. The silver surfer is well animated (you can see that's where the money went), voiced by Laurence Fishburne and occasionally acted by the skinny guy in a suit Doug Jones (HELLBOY), but otherwise there's little of interest here for adults in what is definitely a kid's film.

caseynicholson I just watched this movie on Blu-Ray, and it was the first time I'd seen it since viewing it in the theater during its 2007 release. Then and now I found this movie to be much better than the reviews and reception it received. The only thing I can figure is that in 2007 people were just beginning to grow tired of the first wave of superhero movies. The movie is a bit hokey--but that is in staying true to its source material. As in the original film, "Rise of the Silver Surfer" features a "Thing" costume that could have been a bit better done, and an actor playing Mr. Fantastic who doesn't look a whole lot like the Reed Richards of the comic books. But the movie features a dynamic and fun plot, a well-paced storyline, extraordinary effects, and an altogether good movie experience. That being the case, I'm going to give this film 9/10 stars, after having given its predecessor 8/10. "Rise of the Silver Surfer" is actually one of the better comic book adaptations that I've seen--yes, MCU movies included. Galactus is neat (even if a complete reimagining of the comic character), the Silver Surfer storyline is neat, Doom's return is neat. It's just a neat movie all in all! If you haven't seen it or haven't seen it in a while, give it a shot. You may be surprised at how much you enjoy this film that tends to get lots of criticism.
