Fantastic Four Review (DVD)

This movie isn't much better than The Alamo. The hype for this movie left it a clear disappointment. Visually, the movie and the special effects were definitely geared towards the summer youth audience. I guess the easy money is in cookie cutter comic book movies with hot actors. There are a bunch of things that didn't quite make sense (jumping into a hot spring with no worries after your date spontaneously combusts into a ball of fire?) and the transition from discovering super powers to expert control of these powers comes a little too fast. In no time the Fantastic Four are performing synchronized combined attacks on Doctor Doom. This movie could be fun if you're under the age of twelve, but otherwise it is pretty mediocre.

Fantastic Four = Skip it and watch the X-men movies instead
