Bloated, full of cliches, bad writing, ridiculous coincidences, overlong, lacking in any excitement.
Are you getting that I didn't like this :-)
I've been a fan of these films from the outset. Some cracking films along the way but this was truly dreadful.
This could have been written by 'The Entity'. Please bring back good writing. And concise well edited films that can tell a story in less than 87 hours.
That is all.

I was really looking forward to this.
The concept of being set in an alternative 60s with no connection to the MCU bar 'universe number c' left it free from baggage and allowed some original writing.
Sadly for me, it was more of the same but with less action. High on melodrama and very little to get the pulse racing. I thought PP was miscast as Mr Fantastic (although I like him as an actor) he came across rather weak in this.
There was a poor resolution with a MacGuffin that was pretty obvious.
Overall it was the worst of things, just dull. Positives; the world was well realised. And that's about it for me sadly. I really liked the 2000 versions of this and was a big fan of the comics but this just sucked. Not as much as the 2015 effort but it would have taken some real effort to match that garbage :-D.

Came into this seeing Keira and Clive, thinking this might be half decent.
After an expositional first 30 minutes I was expecting stuff to start happening. Unfortunately, things stayed very low-key until a few weak fight sequences towards the end. The acting on the whole was very poor, verging on the amateurish and that was a surprise given the people on show.
Overall this was a very weak film, even as a 'b' movie could have been done so much better. Zero suspense, poor action scenes, poor acting. Really very little to recommend.
Dig out the Die Hard videos from years before with no CGI. It's a million miles better.
