Vashirdfel Simply A Masterpiece

Console best movie i've ever seen.

Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

gjcomics1 I enjoyed spotting all the things in this movie that were stolen from popular contemporaries: The soundtrack here is ostensibly just the Jurassic Park them with some sad violins added in. The sequence where the heroes receive their Fantastic Four powers is lifted out of 2001: A Space Odyssey (when Dave Bowman encounters the monolith,) Only this time, it's less dazzling. The ending of FANTASTIC FOUR is just Batman & The Joker all over again. I liked the Thing's storyline. In the movie, the Thing falls in love with this artist named Alicia. And though Alicia and The Thing have never spoken a full sentence to one another, they would gladly go the grave defending their love for one another! You can appreciate the passion. Alicia says maybe two lines in the whole movie, which makes it even more baffling when she abruptly bleats out "I LOVE YOU!"The Thing's motivation was clearly defined. Motivation is important. Its what makes us care about a character, and want to see how the character fares in the story. Reed and Doom's motivations seem to be basically identical: scientific supremacy. As for the two blond kids, I'm not really sure why they are even there. Apparently Sally has been DTF her entire life. Johnny is just there to be the Deus Ex Machina.AND NOW... LADIES AND GENTLEMEN... The Oscar for most over the top acting goes to... D O C T O R D O O M! OMG! WHY ARE WE SHOUTING? LOUD NOISES! AUUUGGHGHHHHHH!!!! WHAT IS GOING ON WITH DR DOOMS HANDS IN THIS MOVIE? He touches everybody on the face like he has never seen another human being before. When he is explaining his master plan, he goes into full Ricky Bobby mode! "I don't know what to do with my hands!"The movie's pacing is lop-sided. Starts off moderate, then takes a sudden ninety-degree turn into the stratosphere. We are introduced to the characters, their relationships, etc. We are given lots of interesting information, and we are left to decide for ourselves how to feel about it.Is Reed a good guy or bad guy for testing the limits of science? After all, it nearly got his best friend killed! Should the heroes even use their powers? Interesting questions pop up but dissipate as soon as they appear. When Dr. Doom reveals his intent to nuke the entire city of New York into oblivion (because, f$#@ New York) it becomes absolutely necessary for the heroes to use their powers regardless of morality.The ending, then, gives no closure. We are still unsure if Reed is a good guy or bad guy. He saved New York from a disaster which he himself created... Ah, who cares... Having powers is pretty awesome! Cue the classy shot of Reed riding away in a limo, his rubbery hand outstretched through the moon-roof, waving goodbye, just like Arnold at the end of Last-Action-Hero... *JURASSIC PARK THEME PLAYS amid a SAD VIOLINS*

EitoMan This film has a crazy history, but if you put that aside and judge it as a superhero film made on a budget it is great. This movie comes from a time before superhero films had budgets over $100,000,000 and back when comic books were still aimed primarily at kids. It's a simple origin story that stays pretty true to the comic book. The FX can be kind of goofy (except for The Thing, which overall looks awesome). The acting is solid as is the directing, music, and script. If you're a jerk and like belittling cheap genre movies, then you'll probably have a field day with this movie since it literally had 1/100th the budget of modern comic-book films...but I think it's entertaining and fun. The folks who made it did a good job.

adonis98-743-186503 In this Marvel Comic adaption, four astronauts get bombarded with cosmic rays when an accident occurs. The four of them acquire special powers, and decide to form a superhero group called the Fantastic Four. They then fight their arch-enemy Dr. Doom. Just watched this film on youtube for the very first time and my god it was awful and at this point the first 2 films with Jessica Alba is the best versions of the Fantastic 4 i mean common how hard can it be to make a Fantastic Four film? Just give the rights back to Marvel, the 2015 version even though it was still an above average film for me at least it had a good film somewhere inside this whole mess but this one? It has bad acting, over the top action, cartoony villains that look like they came out of a Power Rangers episode and in my opinion the worst take ever on Dr. Doom he is stupid and over the top and instead of using his actual powers he uses a damn gun at one point for some reason and there's even a scene where the Fantastic 4 break out and he comes in and keeps talking and then he turns his head and looks at the big hole in the wall and goes like "Hmm" seriously? He tries to be like Darth Vader meets Dr. Doom but he failed on both sides. Also the fact that Sue and Reed met for the first time when she was like 13 and he was like 30 something was creepy as hell, The Thing looks awful and for some reason there's even a Batman reference. Overall this is a film that came out in 1994 and looks like it came out on 1977 and for that i'm going to give it an F

skullislandsurferdotcom There's something good within this Roger Corman made-for-TV movie, but it's overshadowed by side-characters and situations more befitting to the Krofft brother's universe. Not a bad thing in itself, but the actors playing this famous comic-book team-up had a lot of potential for a much cooler outing than this. Alex-Hyde White plays the assertively brainy Dr. Reed Richards, who, along with fellow college genius Victor Von Doom (with that last name, he's bound to be a villain), attempt an experiment that fails miserably, "killing" Victor and sparing Richards.We then cut ten years later: Richards is joined by Johnny Storm, an over-the-top Jay Underwood, and one of the prettiest women this side of life, Rebecca Staab as Johnny's sister Susan, whose childhood crush on Richards has carried over – and it's mutual. And not forgetting Ben Grimm, portrayed with brawny charm by Michael Baily Smith.Long story short, once in space they're pummeled with mysterious cosmic rays, crash land on earth and while unaffected by that, they've acquired powers: Richards is a human rubber band, Johnny can make fireballs with his hand, Susan turns invisible, and Grimm's turned into a Thing made of rocks. The side-characters include a band of thieving freaks, resembling rejects from the H.R. Puffenstuff set; two vapid thugs; and the black-masked Dr. Doom himself – way too much screen time's spent on these while the titular superheroes, and their particular skills, are used less than sporadically until the very end: which rushes to a quick conclusion.Perhaps if there was a part two, we'd get more of what, and who, this movie's all about. Either way, Reed Richards and Susan Storm have great chemistry. The Thing, although resembling a costume, works fine as a sympathetic hero. And The Human Torch, eventually morphing into animation, looks neat as he battles a giant laser.But all this should have occurred less than halfway through for THE FANTASTIC FOUR to successfully live up to its title.For More Reviews: http://cultfilmfreakreviews.blogspot.com
