It's amazing how bad they managed to make this movie. It took legitimate talent to make it this boring. There are no redeeming parts of this movie. Unless you have insomnia, it might be able to help that.

Se lían demasiado, una acumulación de absurdeces, CGI pochísimo y decisiones mal tomadas todo el rato.
Por lo visto tuvieron problemas entre director y productora, y se nota hasta la saciedad, demasiadas cosas fuera de plató.

· Cosas buenas: el arranque, sinceramente es bastante prometedor, hace que tengan química entre los personajes y que mole bastante, una pena que luego arruinen todo.
· Cosas malas: Doom es literalmente terrible, la madre que me parió, el guion es horrible, los diálogos más de lo mismo, el final, o en general la segunda mitad de la película es bastante mala, tiene un pésimo planteamiento y la resolución es demasiado rápida.

· Conclusión: se puede digerir, pero es bastante flojera, si te quieres ver algo de los 4 Fantásticos, mírate las anteriores, que por lo menos son más decentillas.… Expand

-The actor’s are all doing a pretty good job.
-The score is kinda decent.

Cons:
-The action is not very good. The Fantastic Four use their abilities in the most generic ways possible and some of the attacks just feel weak.
-The lighting is terrible. The film is too dark and gloomy most of the time, which is such an odd choice for a superhero team as colorful as the Fantastic Four.
-The first half of the movie feels nothing like a Fantastic Four film should feel, but it’s still more enjoyable than the second half.
-Why are government scientists searching for someone who could potentially help them with their inter dimensional teleporter at a HIGH SCHOOL SCIENCE FAIR!?
-The entire second half of the movie happens because Reed, Johnny, and Doom make a stupid decision while drunk.
-Why the hell would Reed risk putting his best friend Ben in danger by having him go with them to Planet Zero? I know he’s drunk and not thinking straight, but come on, this just feels like such a forced way to get Ben back into the plot. -The scene where Reed, Johnny, Sue, and Ben get their powers feels super forced. -I have no idea how Sue even managed to get powers at all since she didn’t even go with them to Planet Zero. -The film intentionally skips over what could have been the most interesting part of the story: the Fantastic Four getting used to their powers.
-The final conflict is too short and the Fantastic Four manage to beat Doom too easily.
-Doom’s powers are too vague.
-Doom himself in this film is honestly a disgrace from the version in the comics and cartoons. There’s taking liberties with a character, and then there’s just throwing away what made him a great villain in the first place.
-The rivalry between Ben and Johnny is very forced.

Final Verdict: Fant4stic is dull, soulless, messy attempt to launch a Fantastic Four film franchise. The first half is kinda decent if you completely ignore the fact that this is supposed to be a Fantastic Four movie, but the second half is just bad. The one thing I will give this movie however is that it has reaffirmed to me that no matter what Marvel Studios does with the Fantastic Four, there’s nowhere to go but up from here.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Fant4stic (2015), directed by Josh Trank, is one of the superhero movie remakes which are always concerned to have better special effects than the previous versions of them but this movie turned out to be much different than other remakes. It’s so BAD! Almost everything in here sucks! The acting was also one of the problems that turned Fant4stic into a…Fantastic Four parody starring Miles Teller as Reed Richards, Kate Mara as Sue Storm, Jamie Bell as Ben Grimm, Michael B. Jordan as Human Torch? I mean that character in this movie was nothing like in the comics. Blonde hair, white skin but in here black hair and black skin. You got the wrong cast! Also Victor Von Doom looked like a piece of turd. He was more like a parody character and spoke like a character in a parody. Everything he did was funny. His hood and cape made him a bigger turd. He looked completely worse than Dr. Doom in Fant4stic (2005). The plot was a complete **** People didn’t want to spoil plots to others but the thing is this movie doesn’t have anything to spoil! The Fant4stic got their powers, Dr. Doom came and created his new universe and they had to stop them which they succeeded. This plot was almost the worst of the worsts. The screenplay was mostly terrible. They talked like children and teens but they’re adults and the screenplay made them act like their childhood. There were more significant stuffs from the comics that they didn’t take: humor, joy,… I barely laughed at this movie, like there’s nothing funny at all. I only laughed at the terrible CGI they had done. The visual effects was thought to be the best of the movie but then it was opposite. It was also one of the worsts about this movie. The background’s okay but the CGI was quite cheesy. I mean look what they had done to Reed’s arm when he stretched it. It looked so bad (as bad as a movie from the 90s trying to use CGI that wasn’t invented yet like The Mummy Returns (the Scorpion King looked like something we wanted to laugh at, not to fear)). Even though thi movie was owned by FOX, nothing could be done greatly. I really wanted to like the movie, but there was nothing to like, nothing to be impressed. We are talking about superheroes, not science projects and this movie, it took most of the minutes about science projects here and science projects there. There’s too much. The superheroes time was so short like only half an hour when Doom came back and the Fant4stic tried to stop him. It was a terrible idea to add too much of science in this movie but anyway, it was already bad. This is one Marvel movie nobody wanted to see.… Expand

With those precedents anyone would avoid going to the movies, after all when half the world says that the movie is bad, one as a spectator expects the worst.

The first 15 minutes were good. But the rest was just absolutely garbage.Doctor Doom was the worst part of the movie.How did they beat doctor Doom in like 5 minutes?

A lot of people expected action the whole time, I didn't. The story was very good, they showed the backstory, and how they grew as a team. My only complaint, the final fight was very short and not that good.

Despite the great performance of Reg E. Cathey and the 20-minutes of the relationship between Reed Richards and Ben Grimm as young kids, which is kind of interesting, This is a fine example why Josh Trank will never work on superhero movies ever again, all thanks to its predictably rushed plot, not showing the superheroes to learn about their powers, no real relationship between the Fantastic Four, poorly-developed characters, horrible visual effects, terrible casting and acting performances (besides Reg E. Cathey), unpleasant tone, lack of humour, some of its action scenes that lasts for over 6 minutes that are ridiculously dull and weak and its anti-climatic third act. Everybody should stay away from this movie. If you're a Marvel fan, maybe you can only rent it for one day. I think that the 2005 version of Fantastic Four and its sequel are better if you ask me. I gave it a 2 out of 10.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. If your looking for a film with action, and about super heroes then this isnt for you, if you are looking for people talking in dark rooms for most the film and being broody and not smiling then this is for you, this film got it all wrong, even the colourful cheesy campy films before it are more of a pleasure to watch, at least their closer to the comic, and fun! please dont waste your time, I didnt belive it when others said it was terrible, I thourght it would have something good about it, my god was I wrong, even the director after a year commented that it was not what he wanted it to be.
the film tried to be more dark, and gritty, and realistic, but it just ended up being a depressed film that took too long to get to the heroes whom arnt even heroes just stupid high IQ teens who want to be famous and cause the problems they created, and none of this was fun, the only action comes at the end of the film and its a stupid beam in the sky, with an uninteresting fight, the only thing this film is good for is to educate about bad script, dialog, acting, pacing, how to screw up a franchise etc blah blah, so if you are a writer watch it and learn what not to do.… Expand

I understand it was trying to go for a darker feel. Sorta like the dark knight trilogy or man of steel but it really does not work for this type of film. The dark and broodingness of this film only works for so long that after awhile it becomes redundant. I don't know whos idea it was to have the actors play a bunch of emotionless scientists but mo one seemed like they were trying. Take queen amadals's acting from the pequals and multiply it by the entire cast and oh while your at it make the whole film really brooding and emotionless. THat's fan4stic if you have not already seen it. Other problems that plaged this movie was the movies pacing and charcter develpment was really lacking. I found it super weird that they were using many phrases that the fantastic four uses as punch lines which was really weird. If i had to find something positive to say about this movie it is that this movie is bearable all the way until reed Richards reaches the Baxter building. That is where it all falls apart. Oh they got Dr.doom completely wrong too. I don't know who ever thought this abomination of movie would be a great idea. Guys stay away from this movie at all possible costs.… Expand

Probably what a lot of viewers didn't like is the fact the characters spend a considerable amount of time talking to each other rather than beating each other up for a half hour at a time. It's a classic origins story. It's not Casablanca and it's not Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf and it's not Guess Who's Coming To Dinner or In the Heat of the Night. It's a superhero flick. It has a beginning, a middle, and an end. The characters are likeable. And for once I found myself watching an entertaining movie instead of checking my watch every fifteen minutes like I do when trying to tolerate yet another typical action-adventure spectacular -- which have become yet another name for boredom.… Expand

Slight Spoilers: I found the idea of a reboot of the Fantastic Four promising until the casting was announced. Then Michael B. Jordan (Johnny Storm) responded to no one liking the casting by saying "deal with it, you'll rush to see itSlight Spoilers: I found the idea of a reboot of the Fantastic Four promising until the casting was announced. Then Michael B. Jordan (Johnny Storm) responded to no one liking the casting by saying "deal with it, you'll rush to see it anyway." Which is sort of an arrogant thing to say to people you want to see it.
Then you had Kate Mara (Susan Storm) say that the director told her reading one Fantastic Four comic wasn't even necessary....more bad buzz. Also no one bothered to squash the rumor that Doom (Toby Kebbell) is now an angry blogger.
I can say that Kebbell is not playing an angry blogger and in fact does a good job playing Victor Domashev who is a....scientist. Who's not too happy to be working with Reed Richards (Miles Gellar) on a teleportation device. He only agreed to work on the project due to Susan. Victor gets jealous that Reed and Susan start flirting while working. Which is irrelevant and goes nowhere.
Long story short; Reed gets the machine working. The military don't want Reed, Johnny and Victor to be the first to teleport to an alternate universe which especially pisses off Victor. A machine important to the military apparently is unguarded...by the military...so it's joyride time! Reed brings his buddy Ben Grimm (Jamie Bell) along.
Things go wrong; Victor is presumed dead but we all know who he becomes. Everyone gets powers and Sue is hit with energy when everyone returns which gives her powers too. The military considers them all property and a weapon now when Reed just wants to find a cure.
I was into the movie more than I expected. It kept my attention throughout and I disagree with critics who called it joyless with no humor. Since there is some humor and entertaining moments. It's just that the movie is pretty rushed in the second act and bam it's over before you know it just when we get some action.
While I did make fun that Jamie Bell who played a male ballerina in Billy Elliot is now the Thing; he actually works better than anyone else. Miles Tellar and Kate Mara do fine work but mostly better work as brainiacs than as superheroes.
Michael B. Jordan does have the cockiness of Johnny Storm but I never believed that he had any sort of sibling relationship with Susan. Either way they have no chemistry. And he was pretty dull as Johnny.
If I believed anything in the film character wise it is at least that Reed feels bad about Ben becoming a giant rock creature. Kebbell's Doom is sort of bad ass but it's silly how he talks. You see a mouth but it never moves. So how is he talking exactly ?
I did at least get why Doom wants to destroy Earth more than critics did. He's gone mad from being left in the alternate universe for a year and thinks that is his true and superior home now. Either way though I do think the film does get bad and B-Movie like during the battle with Doom. While it's too short to even really enjoy.
Too short goes for the movie as well. The film works better as a Stargate like film in the beginning. But when it's suddenly a superhero film; it's not as good. The film kept my attention but in the end I still can't say it's the Fantastic Four I have been waiting for.
Fox should have rebooted the Fantastic Four with the intention to make a superior film. At least that's why I think reboots should exist. Instead they apparently only made it so Marvel wouldn't get the rights back. Then they rushed it in and out of production just to make money for a summer release. Kind of like what they did with X-Men 3. With Josh Trank blaming Fox that he couldn't make the great movie he intended to make.
If Fox doesn't care if their movies aren't as good as they could be with enough time to make them good; then yes Marvel does deserve the rights back. Still; I don't think the Fantastic Four is as bad as they say. But you should probably just wait for DVD. As for moving ahead with a sequel no one wants; go home Fox...you're drunk.… Expand

Because that's how Fantastic Four truly is a broken piece of needle that tries to hatch an egg and then destroys its shell for itself. This movie is s**t. Everything that the movie studio hopefully promised to bring a dark and unheard of gritty Fantastic Four us comic book freaks wanted is s**t. I felt very bad for director Josh Trank because he's done a prètty nice job on not only introducing him to "Chronicle," but i think it was the right thing that he openly made a twitter rant saying "it was a piece of s**t." Well done, Josh. You're a great director no matter how those dimwits at Fox always likes to piss people off and saying "this movie should've been a lot better if it weren't for me or the ones that already interfered my vision. Way to burden the series. Fox." I kinda rented it on DVD and it was awful. Everything except the casting of the movie. Maybe Michael B. Jordan, Miles Teller, Kate Mara, and the underrated actor who played Billy Elliot, should have their own superbero movies in the future. The acting was underwhelming, the story is so bad even DC's Batman VS. Superman couldn't even decide who wins in a pie-eating contest, the CGI effects are chringeworhy to watch. And seeing that it is a Marvel reboot (allegedly), I think the better Marvel reboot simply awarded by 2008's The Incredible Hulk is just by saying: it's time for a change, guys. We have some fun moments and we screwed up for the fans. Looks like I'll hang my suit, make a decision, and hand the Fantastic Four's rights back over to Disney. " And as an avid longtime comic nèrd, it needs to make a change right now. So if you desperately want a Fantastic Four sequel, than I suggest you make a deal and see what Disney is adding to their deck of cards by dressing up as Spider-Man or still haunted by Rupert Murdoch's house of horrors. Just give it up, Fox.… Expand

How could they do this?? I could give this a 0 but the reason why i gave it a 2 is because the first 30 minutes was all right and they used The Thing's iconic catchphrase. I don't blame the director because it was fox that messed up the movie, not him.

Not like 2005 FF awful but Batman and Robin awful. Other than the performances of the main cast being Miles Tellar, Michael B Jordan, Jamie Bell, Kate Mara and Tobey Kebbell, there is literally nothing redeemable about this film. The special effects are terrible, the script is garbage, the direction and pacing of the film itself is half-assed, poorly made, dull and rushed cinematic defecation. The plot is filled with holes and goofs, the direction of the characters is poor as are their motivations. Doom is again poorly equalized, he starts out the film as it seems to be a genius who started the project but for reasons not explained left and became a shut in. Do not waste your time here, this movie was awful. It felt as if the whole movie was rushed which made it not feel at all like a fantastic Four movie and more like a Sci-Fi flick. The 3rd act of the movie is where it gets really bad as the movie basically goes from 0 to 60 rushing past everything that was important , the final fight was short and barely entertaining, like you could blink and its over. After watching this movie, you can see why Trank had a nervous and psychological breakdown during production and now refuses to ever do a comic book movie again.… Expand

I liked the first part of the movie and when they first got their powers, but then after that, it went to crap. I seriously thought the story was brutally rushed and it made me a little bored.
I loved the characters. I love Michael B. Jordan as the new Human Torch. But the movie and everything else kind of sucked. The quality of the film was...Just, not good. The CGI was just awful.
They ruined my favourite SUPER HERO TEAM of all time!

Then the characters, it's bad not because of the stars but rather its the chemistry between them. Michael B. Jordan did a better job as Human Torch then i expected but this is Fantastic Four, collectivism is as important individual. Seeing the four characters in this film as Fantastic Four was just awkward.

Admittedly, I skipped it at the theater because I let the media convince me that there's no possible way it could be a good movie. This is an excellent FF origin story, and over all a much better film the the two previous attempts. Trank, Slater & Kinberg have created a very modern story here that brings four victims of circumstance together with a common goal, even while at odds with one another. The acting & visuals are top-notch. My only concern with the story is the mishandling of Doctor Doom. It's almost as if they used the 2005 film as the basis for Victor instead of diving into the source material. Even with that, though, there is much much worse out there (see BvS). Side Note: I was really hoping that the naming conversation at the end would turn into the Norm Maconald bit.… Expand

However, the big problem is the story makes no sense and the alchemy between the characters, let alone the actors, feels wrong. I felt the story made no sense because the character are shifting continuously from one type to another without sensible explanation. At some point they serve the military like obedient puppets then suddenly have a change of heart and decide to grow up. The character of Victor Von Doom does not make much more sense either. As for the story, the big point is clearly the establishment of a new franchise (which seems to be the exclusive selling point of any reboot these days) by declaring the name of their new group of buddies is "fantastic 4". Oh, shall I mention there is absolutely zero form of humour in this movie ? It is all just doom, gloom and superpowers, no lightheartedness. For me this kind of production goes straight on the shelf of failed reboots, as if a reboot could be anything but a failure in its core...… Expand

Ben Grimm and Reed Richards (played as children by Evan Hannemann and Owen Judge, later by Jamie Bell and Miles Teller) don’t mention that fact, because if they did the cinematic universe would collapse on itself and all light would be extinguished from the cosmos. Also, the thoughtful people at Fox probably don’t want to remind anyone of those earlier movies.

Some of us have long memories, though, and can summon the bad cinema of the mid-aughts with furious clarity. Looking back on those days, I remember — Jessica Alba. O.K., forget it. I’ll just go ahead and reboot my 2005 review of the first “Fantastic Four” origin story, which I said was “fantastic only in its commitment to mediocrity.” That’s still true, though a decade later it’s true in different ways. Are you offended that I’m recycling material? Sorry, but I’m as susceptible to the influence of movies as anyone else.

This “Fantastic Four,” directed by Josh Trank from a script he wrote with Simon Kinberg and Jeremy Slater, feels less like a tale of superhero beginnings than like a very long precredit opening sequence. As boys growing up on Long Island, Reed and Ben are brains-and-brawn science-fair buddies.

Reed is working on a teleporting machine that attracts the attention of Franklin Storm (Reg E. Cathey), who runs some kind of boarding school/research center in Manhattan. There, Reed meets the Storm kids, Sue the scientist (Kate Mara) and Johnny the hot-rodder (Michael B. Jordan), and also a brooding intellectual named Victor von Doom (Toby Kebbell).

Much later, after they have traveled to a parallel dimension where a planet full of energy (please just fill in whatever exposition you feel will get you to the next part of this sentence), Victor will face down his erstwhile classmates and say: “There is no more Victor. There is only DOOM!” There is nothing wrong with that kind of line — he’s a newly fledged ultravillain in a comic-book movie, after all — but it needs to be earned, with gravity or wit. The best superhero entertainments have both.

“Fantastic Four,” despite the dogged efforts of its talented young cast, has nothing. The special effects are at about the level of the early “Harry Potter” movies — lots of glowing green clouds and ice-blue bolts and force fields. The human drama is meager. Once again, the only real pathos belongs to Mr. Bell’s Ben, who finds himself trapped in a stony new body and weaponized by a ruthless government. Mr. Teller stretches, not as an actor but as a digitally enhanced body. Mr. Jordan burns in the same way, and Ms. Mara disappears. Her character also has the power to make other things vanish. I would say she should have exercised it on this movie, but in a week or two that should take care of itself.… Expand

What's worse is that unlike the reboot of Spider-Man (which had a very successful original trilogy run), this reboot fails to learn any lessons taught by the two absolute **** films which were released less than 10 years prior.

With a running time of only 100 minutes, to explain the origin stories of FIVE main characters, as well as then developing a scenario for the Fant4stic to fight the fifth, it's simply an absolute mess.

The film uses a 'one year later' fade out/in for Christ's sake, because it's that lazy and badly written.
Throw in some terrible directing, bad casting, bad acting, unremittingly patronising dialogue, less than stellar special effects and, worst of all, the most anti-climactic end 'fight' scene ever..... And you've got a Turkey that Ebeneezer Scrooge would be proud of the morning after his ghostly visitations!

It really is that bad. I cannot begin to vent my frustrations at what a huge missed opportunity this could have been, if the lessons from the first two films had been taken on-board.

I suspect their won't be a Fan4stic 2 coming to cinemas anytime soon!… Expand

Giving theSuperhero films have been doing a lot of incredible things lately, especially the ones based on Marvel comics. With so many characters to be brought to the big screen it doesn't seem likely for the trend to stop anytime soon. Giving the Fantastic Four another shot was a good idea. However this movie wasn't the way to do it.

It's rushed and incomplete. Fragments of the story are missing, the villain has little motive, and the characters never really come together in any way that actually makes their team believable and satisfying. I applaud the attempts at change, but the execution is severely lacking. All that being said I still enjoyed the movie. It's definitely not the Fantastic Four movie I wanted, but I still found it to be an entertaining, yet highly flawed, sci-fi flick.

There is a certain appeal to watching these talented actors come together on their project. However, once the powers come into play things go off the rails. It's a decent sci-fi flick, but a disappointing superhero movie.

The charming cast is given some cheesy lines and their powers are brought to life with some surprisingly dated special effects. It kind of reminded me of an old-school, alien invasion flick in ways both good and bad.

There's a lack of emotion and certain plot-lines, such as the broken friendship between Reed and Grimm, never see any sort of resolution. It's evident that some good ideas were behind this project, but ultimately something went wrong and the majority of the film was pieced together in ways that leave it all unfinished.

Then there's Doom himself. The big baddy of the film, and one of the most significant super villains in all of comics, just sort of appears near the end of the film with some bogus plot and zero real reason for actually doing it. Part of why superhero films have been so successful recently is because of villains with real motivations and at least some attempts at being fleshed out. Those elements are strangely missing here. It feels like Doom was just included because "oh yeah, this is a superhero movie. It kind of needs one of those."

You can tell there are a lot of good ideas here and lots of areas that maybe the writer(s)/director wanted to expand upon, but ultimately either didn't get to or just didn't care enough to actually try. The end results feel lazy and thrown together. Yet, despite is disjointed execution and fragmented nature, I still found myself enjoying it.

Yes, it's a highly flawed bit of filmmaking. However it's got a great vibe, a likable cast, and a certain amount of likability to keep it entertaining despite all of the totally obvious flaws. I honestly think had it not had the Fantastic Four's name attached to it then maybe we all could have been a bit more forgiving. To be honest it just doesn't do these characters or their stories justice. For some reason though I still like it. Not because it's a good superhero film, but because it's a good bit of sci-fi nonsense that really could have been great had more effort been put into it.

It's a flawed, yet strangely fun movie. One that doesn't do much for the heroes it tries to mimic, but does enough good despite itself to still be worth a watch so long as you are willing to put with a large list of flaws. For some reason I was apparently ready to. Somehow it was able to give me reason to even with the odds stacked against it. Because of that I give it a 7.7/10. I don't know how or even really why at all, but I enjoyed it. I would still like them to go back to the drawing board for these heroes in the future though. The Fantastic Four deserve better.… Expand

For me this movie was a disaster, too bad it failed as I really did like the casting. I have seen the young talented actors Miles Teller in movies like Whiplash, Jamie Bell in Billy Elliot/Definace, and Michael B. Jordan on the TV series Parenthood. All can act and thought it would be over the top before it came out. Sadly for some reason they just can't bring this comic book and its characters justice. I did somewhat like the original two movies, but they still weren't quite the ticket either and came up short. This last installment with all that talent that they had was truly a huge disappointment. The depth of the script felt shallow and the action wasn't there either. The only depiction I found interesting was with Doctor Doom both in acting and the effects. Actually as bad as it was, I was still hoping with all the talent it would get another go around, but hear that they have already axed the sequel-too bad.… Expand
