Just watched Fantastic Four 2

[batman_fan]

pretty bad acting, so-so story, and is Reed the Invisible Woman's father or husband? I was disappointed.

[Aman619]

I agree. just saw it myself and it wa sslow, tedious and pretty stupid. Not th eworst film ever made, but a real disappointment.

The trick with this film is to approach it with zero expectations and think of it as a cartoony dry run for more sophisticated FF films (that of course will never get made).

 

An opportunity wasted.....

I still have not watched it

Enough with the stupid fanboy-speak. A bad movie is a bad movie.

I was merely offering advice on how to deal with crappe comic movies - stop playing the fanboy card, JC. I'm not an apologist for such films either way....

My wife left after eight minutes. I managed to stick it through to the end. It is a mediocre film for an eight year old.

[G.A.tor]

my 4 year old LOVED it, and wants to watch it again ,and again...I am fairly certain that is not the main target the studio was hoping for, but every 4-8 year old that loves it, generally means a parent (and tix or dvd purchase) is involved...

I was ok with the movie...thought the Surfer Special effects were above average, and overall, I "could" watch the movie again (bad or not)

Same here, my son and daughter loved it and have beat the ironing board to death pretending to be the silver surfer. I now own the DVD.

[Detroit MIke]

let me be the first to say, " i liked it. " it was much better than the first one. let the abuse begin.

I thought it was an average movie but still to much story and fighting. The FF would fight for a page or 2 and then kick .

[slackjawcomics]

I agree with Detroit Mike, it was not the worst comic movie to come out, and it was better then the first.

It was the reason I bought a Blu Ray Player in the first place. I bought both on the day it came to DVD. It was a good flick. I don't understand why such a broad range of feelings on superhero movies. Everybody wants their Superhero movies to be like either Batman Begins and/or Sin City (both of which are unwatchable), but then when a Superhero movie is actually dark and brooding and watchable, ie Daredevil, everybody hates it. Elektra and Punisher were horrible, the FF franchise is not. BTW the dynamics of the cast and interaction of the characters is exactly how I imagined since I read my first FF comic when I was a kid.

I loved Daredevil!

 

 

well, except for the costume...and affleck...and the black Kingpin...and Bullseye sans costume...and

 

shoot, maybe it did suck....

[maxstuf]

the ending was so bad it exceeds my ability to describe without launching into a profanity laced diatribe.

[burntboy]

I watched it on a tiny screen with crappy sound on a plane coming back from Europe. i was tired and didn't really give it my full attention. but my main reaction was that it was too short and didn't really get into the Surfers character much.

 

and Dr Doom just doesn't come across as sinister enough.........

 

i agree that the teams interaction pretty much mirrors the early years of the comic. for better or worse............

 

perhaps on the Home Theater system with the sound cranked up it will seem better.

I also caught in on a flight back from Europe. Then, became violently ill. Perhaps it wasn't entirely the movie's fault. Perhaps it was.
