Despite being somebody who enjoys superhero filmsmuchthe next person, this 'Fantastic Four' reboot has to be down there with one of the worst.<br/><br/>The 2005 film and its sequel, both directed by Tim Story, were not great films (the former was somewhat mediocre, though the sequel was an improvement) but even with their faults they were much better than the reboot. Although it is often considered one of the worst superhero/comic book films ever made, this reviewer has yet to properly see the 1990s incarnation, but it does have to be irredeemably bad to be worse than this.<br/><br/>Oddly enough, 'Fantastic Four' is not completely irredeemable. Michael B. Jordan is a cool, commanding and likable Johnny/Torch, and the only one in the cast who tries and succeeds to do something with the way the characters are written. It is ironic that the best thing about the film was the thing that was attracting the most negative publicity before release due to his race. Some of the film does look quite good, with slick photography, darkly atmospheric lighting and audacious production design.<br/><br/>Not all of it comes off though. The editing is both sloppy and choppy, not only looking cheap but in particular severely affecting the storytelling. The special effects are at best perfunctory and some of them look pretty bad actually, much prefer the look of The Thing in the Tim Story-directed films here The Thing looks too much like a rock monster. Josh Trank clearly wasn't the right director for this, directing with little flair or involvement with the story. Then again he doesn't deserve all of the blamemost of the film's failures falls at the door of producer/studio interference. The music has some haunting parts but at best generic and not much stands out.<br/><br/>'Fantastic Four' has only one good performance, the rest are poor. Miles Teller and especially Kate Mara make Ioan Gruffodd and Jessica Alba look like Oscar-winners, Teller looks far too wooden and out of his deptha leader and Mara is incredibly mechanical. Jamie Bell does try to stay true to Ben/The Thing's character, but the character is written far too one-dimensionally so Bell despite some glimpsesa whole fails to inject much tragedy or depth to him. The chemistry between them is almost non-existent and they just don't feel like a team. Toby Kebbell is an insipid and very non-threatening Victor Von Doom, here a villain practically shoe-horned into the story and basically a villain for the sake of being a villain with no obvious motivation or personality to speak of.<br/><br/>In all fairness they do have a very clunky and by-the-numbers script, with some cheesy lines and too many stupid moments, to work with that has some neat ideas but barely does anything with them. There is too little action, and what there is of it is hugely underwhelming, very uninterestingly choreographed and no fun or tension, everything just feels indifferent. The biggest let down here in 'Fantastic Four' is the story which is a mess. Scenes that go on for too long, due to poorly written exposition that is barely elaborated upon (the father-son relationship could have injected some much needed heart to the film but goes nowhere), drag endlessly, and when something does happen if not by much the film rushes through it with some incompleteness here and there. The too short running time is to blame, the film should have been twenty minutes to half-an-hour longer.<br/><br/>Particularly suffering is the far too busy third act and a very rushed (in length and to a lesser extent pace) and dramatically limp final battle, which doesn't really feel like much of a battle.<br/><br/>All in all, fantastic is the last word to describe a very disappointing reboot. 2/10 Bethany Cox
1) Story: The movie didn't follow the comic book. It was awful. The characters didn't become the fantastic four, until most of the movie was over. At the beginning ,Reed was near the age of 11 when he created a dimensional portal. There is no way a child at 11 could create that. He'd have to learn way too much. (And even worse: It was made from salvaged trash.) 2) The characters were jacked: The Reed from the 2005 movie looked way more like Reed from the comic book. On the new movie, he didn't even get the gray hair on the sides. Dr Doom's outfit was horrible. His hood looked like a tied green blanket or something. And most importantly, Where did he get it from? He was in another dimension. He wasn't supposed to be some crazy hermit, he's the ruler of a country. And…. everybody was a genius. Johnny Storm is not some genius, he's the obnoxious one. (His special effects were also awful.) Also, Susan was the assistant, not another genius. 3) The effects were awful. The human torch in the 2005 movie makes you want to actually be him, but in the new movie, it makes you think " that's awful." It looked like a cartoon was pasted onto the movie. THE thing looked like a rocky hulk. He's not supposed to be that big.<br/><br/>I'll never get those hours back…
Ponderous, pretentious and, most damning of all, just not much fun.
