      What to Know

      Critics Consensus

      Marred by goofy attempts at wit, subpar acting, and bland storytelling, Fantastic Four is a mediocre attempt to bring Marvel's oldest hero team to the big screen.

      Audience Member Undermined by poor storytelling, dire visual effects and dated portrayals of female characters, Fantastic 4 fails to provide a decent origin story for some of Marvel's most iconic characters. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/19/24 Full Review Ciaran S Fantastic Four in it's core is just a forgetabley generic superhero film with no effort. But i will give this movie some credit it's that at the very least the CGI effects look awesome, Jessica Alba's moment's were attractive (yeah the only reason i wanted to watch this film was because i have a crush on her) and even the things moments with a new girl is charming, and finally Chris Evans i mean why? Well good thing he rose to popularity in another superhero film a decade later. Overall while this movie can be problematic at very least there some good from it. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/13/24 Full Review Tony R Not a great film but it is comic-bookish and entertaining. Considering the source material they were working with, it's pretty good. Obviously not a 10/10 but people seem overly harsh on it. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/10/24 Full Review Gabriel Valentim É um bom filme! Da pra assistir tranquilo. É uma adaptação legal dos quadrinhos. Se considerar a época que foi produzido ficou muito bom. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/29/24 Full Review Dean Chungho K I don't care what others say, this was a really good Fantastic Four movie!! Perfect casts!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/26/24 Full Review Alec B The utter contempt for the audience on display here is so staggering ("we know you're this dumb, slop it up pigs!") that I almost admire it . . . almost. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/22/24 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      J. R. Jones Chicago Reader Marvel Comics continues to empty out its stable of superheroes with this entertaining tale. Apr 25, 2007 Full Review Mark Salisbury Time Out Fantastic it most certainly ain't. Jun 24, 2006 Full Review Keith Phipps AV Club A garish mediocrity. Sep 26, 2005 Full Review Matt Neal Movies Ate My Life Not as bad as you remember, thanks to some spirited performances, strong casting, a couple of cool sequences, and a vibe of campy fun. Rated: 3/5 Nov 3, 2021 Full Review Mike Massie Gone With The Twins Though definitely not one of the best comic book concepts to end up on film, it still has heart and quite a bit of entertainment value. Rated: 7/10 Sep 29, 2020 Full Review Danielle Solzman Solzy at the Movies Fox was never able to give the Fantastic Four the justice they deserve.
