Movie they don't seem to make much of anymore, at least in this ultra-seriousĮra when the phrase "comic book" has been replaced by the far more I found it a perfectly fine, fun ride - the kind of lighthearted superhero The film's more winking tone, or its overly photogenic actors, or the somewhat spottyĮffects, but no one seemed to like 'Fantastic Four' much. Review that I became aware of how much the film seems to be hated by hardcore comicīook movie fans - at least if you read the IMDB and web reviewers. This is definitely Marvel Comics most unwatchable production yet.Call me a heretic, but I actually liked 'Fantastic Four.' Having missed theįilm when it hit theaters last year, it wasn't until I sat down for this Blu-ray Nobody else was expressing enthusiasm though. I'm not going to call Rise of the Silver Surfer the worst flick of the year, or even the summer. Then came about a bad joke or awful line to destroy the mood. There are two or three quick scenes (mostly lasting no more than thirty seconds) where the duo appeared to actually be their characters. However, there are a few brief moments where their performances outshine the writing. Unfortunately, the script calls for dialogue and actions that make them look foolish. Micheal Chiklis, Chris Evans, and Julian McMahon all have the right looks and attitudes for their parts. Surprisingly, I have a few positive comments about the film. I don't mind if filmmakers change the comics as long as there are justified reasons (budgetary, location problems, etc), but when the changes have no aspect of creativity or intelligence, that's when I get put into a nerd-induced frenzy. There's cringe-inducing performances by leads Jessica Alba and Ioan Gruffudd, flat and all around boring direction, a shoddy script with elementary school dialogue and humor, and not an ounce of faithfulness to the original comics when it comes to the Silver Surfer. Everything that made the 2004 abomination what it was is present here. Despite its alright box office, the team beyond Rise of the Silver Surfer has made another completely limp, uninvolving, terribly disappointing motion picture that will likely share the same legacy as the first: a total misfire. By the end, I was wishing I had left too. During the next hour and half, many more groans were let out and four audience members left. There were groans throughout the theater. The audience with me waited during a excruciatingly long set-up and then.nothing happens again. For the first thirty or so seconds, I was thinking to myself that something amazing was about to happen, that this sequel would actually be cool. I'm sorry to say as a Fantastic Four fan, this is one of the most exciting moments in the whole picture. The camera looms on the computer-generated setting for what feels like ten minutes. Rise of the Silver Surfer begins with a seemingly never-ending sequence that takes place in deep space.
