Los 4 fantásticos: primeros pasos

Yeah, I liked this movie but in a strange way.

No doubt it's a different take on recent Marvel movies: retro and conventional, yet elegant. There's just enough action, depth, and climax, though nothing exceptional. It's gentle and centered around family, making it enjoyable for anyone not just hardcore comic fans. The plot, characters and acting was done very well in my opinion and what sets this movie apart from most marvel movies out there.

Then come the parts that only comic fans might question. How Sue managed to handle Galactus in the final battle, and the portrayal of Galactus's own capabilities, felt a bit questionable. A little too light, I'd say.

I give it an 8, not because it's great, because in the current struggling landscape of marvel movies, it somehow worked and managed to stand out by avoiding any major faults. And you have to look at it from a marvel comics lens. But in some other ways, it's more of a 7.

Hopefully, Marvel is on track to gradually bring back the glory, intense and climax of Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame to the big screen. Fingers crossed!

I just got out of seeing fantastic four first steps. This movie was awesome. It had a lot of heart a lot of great characters and a lot of stand out moments for each of the four members of the fantastic four. It really showed a great family and it was something that was very fresh and nice to see from the MCU. It really stands out from any of her MCU film as it is in a different world. It is also very intense when it needs to be and like this is a great villain for this movie. Overall very solid eight out of 10.

I mean I went to theater with quite high expectations. But honestly was a bit disappointed.

Movie tried to explore characters and their depth more but collectively as whole it went bit shallow and mediocre storyline.

It was definitely better than previous ones. But calling it one of the best MCU films? Um nope. Not at all.

When it comes to adapting The Fantastic Four for the big screen, there have been 4 previous failed attempts (including the unreleased 1994 rights retaining film). So with the bar already pretty low, the MCU had a big challenge not only in these characters' interpretation but also the step off entry for Phase 6. Because if even Marvel Studios couldn't faithfully adapt this family for the silver screen, then no one honestly can. And I'm happy to report that I really enjoyed First Steps.

What's really refreshing about the film is that you can jump into this movie without prior MCU knowledge as this film stands on its own in Earth 828 (numbers used as an homage to Jack Kirby's DOB). Even with the aesthetics of the 1960's, director Matt Shakman throws us into an intrepid and exciting universe with little time spent on the Fantastic Four's origin story. The origin story still gets the exposition hand out there but within the confines of a news montage celebrating the team's heroics early on.

The Fantastic Four here, feel very fleshed out and realized with Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn and Ebon Moss Bachrach's portrayals all uniformly coexisting with excellent banter that the other films tried but skipped out on. Their family dynamics are also on full display in the both quieter moments and the action sequences.

Galactus was the character I was the most worried about. Because thai could have easily been another MODOK situation. Thankfully that's not the case as Ralph Ineson's iteration as the planet harvester. For one, he's not a damn cloud, and two he is very menacing and can cause some serious damage. His herald Silver Surfer is also great and has the best action sequence in the whole film.

The music from Michael Giacchino is great as well as another great superhero score. Alongside the brooding tune for The Batman, his cheery tune for the Fantastic Four is instantly synonymous with them and recognizable.

With Thunderbolts, Superman and now Fantastic Four First Steps, I feel more hopeful than ever before for superhero flicks especially with Marvel back on their winning streak and DC starting their fresh new universe.

The movie was bland. Story and action both were meh.. As a fan of the superhero genre I was hugely disappointed both by the movie and by the critics hyping it up.

You hardly see anything "heroic" being done that gets your heart pumping nor are you invested in any of the Fantastic Four. The power scaling makes zero sense at different parts of the movie, Galactus is nerfed to the max (to the point of being silly) and this universe has the stupidest / most gullible NPCs ever. This is exactly how the conversation goes with them, NPCs - "oh no the world is going to end, you can't save us" F4 - "we will save you don't worry" NPCs - (panic over and tears in their eyes) "ok"

Save the money, buy something on the Steam sale. I left before end credits.
