Fantastic Four (2005)
Four astronauts have their lives changed forever, when they end up being hit by a cloud of cosmic radiation and gain superpowers. Reed Richards now has the ability to stretch his body like elastic. Sue Storm is now the invisible woman. Johnny Storm becomes the human touch and Ben Grimm becomes the ';;;;Thing';;;;, a man made out of rock. Together, they use their unique powers to explore the strange aspects of the world, and to foil the evil plans of Doctor Doom.

Lee and Kirby built Marvel Comics on the foundation of the FF and it's no stretch to say this franchise could still be going strong a decade later with a better opening act.

Fantastic Four is actually very true to its source material - often literally so - but generally misses the spirit entirely.

A garish mediocrity.

Director Tim Story ("Barbershop") sets an uneven tempo for the embarrassingly clunky script by Michael France ("Hulk") and Mark Frost ("Storyville").

Bland performances throughout. And really, who wants to make Jessica Alba the invisible girl? What a bad idea. I want her to be visible at all times.

Fantastic it most certainly ain't.

It exists largely to entertain and delight, which used to be precisely what summer blockbusters were engineered to do.

Before the inevitable and surprisingly anticlimactic battle with Doom, we are treated to two extreme-sports demonstrations, several training montages, [and] an ill-advised love triangle.

Fantastic Four is terribly miscast. It's poorly written, visually uninteresting, and worst of all, boring. The film drags considerably. There are huge gaps without any action and it brings the pacing to an unbearable crawl.

The film is made in the internet equivalent of capital letters and its simplistic morality stands out on the big screen more so than on the small page.

Marvel Comics continues to empty out its stable of superheroes with this entertaining tale.

Some comics just shouldn't be turned in to movies...
