Good but Too Late
Fantastic Four is definitely a step in the right direction for the MCU. While it doesn't reach the heights of the Infinity Saga, this is an attempt at doing something different in this tired franchise. The four leads here are all very charming and the family dynamic works very well. Silver Surfer and Galactus are very good villains. Realistically this is the movie that should've been released four/five years ago right after Avengers Endgame because now it feels like a last ditch effort to pull fans back in before the next Avengers movie. A lot of my complaints come from the overall mcu as a whole but I really did find this movie quite fun. I already said I liked the characters. The action is good and I really love the production design and costumes. It's good but I still think the non spider man related parts of this franchise are in trouble. 7/10.
