Les Quatre Fantastiques: Premiers pas

It's fine, it's watchable but it's crazy how by the end of the movie, we hardly know anything about the four main characters. It feels like we're "already supposed to know" which is insane for a "first" of a film franchise.

I loved the 2000s version of Fantastic Four because it focused on how each character coped with their powers and losing their human lives + the challenges they each faced fitting into society. Ben lost his family, and had to rebuild his life and find love again. It had depth. This one, it's like the director said to each actor- ok you have one character trope and we will milk it the entire movie.

My poor man Ben got like five minutes of screen time! Also why did Ben's rock body look 10x more real in the movie made 25 years ago?! Bad CGI, Spiderman made in 2000 had better effects.

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.

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.

Visually, this film was a standout with stunning cinematography, impressive CGI, and a unique retro aesthetic that felt refreshingly different from the usual superhero fare. The story was fairly basic and the short runtime didn't allow enough depth to fully explore the villain's motivations. The casting was nearly perfect, with every actor bringing their character to life in a way that made you love the team not just as a whole but as individuals. Overall, I'd rate it a solid 7.2 out of 10. It's a fun, visually rich ride and I'm genuinely excited to see where the story goes next. The post-credit scene was a 9 out of 10, one of the most dramatic and thrilling I've seen in years.

This movie is so unimaginatively silly that it feels stuck on the level of a mid-90s Power Rangers episode. At best, it might be aimed exclusively at kids, but honestly, I think even today's kids would simply find it dumb. I struggle to imagine that anyone could genuinely enjoy this film, and if someone does, I'd honestly love to hear why.
