a5c7b9f00b In a retelling of the story of the Fantastic Four, begins when genius Reed Richards builds what he thinks is a teleportation device which he unveils at a science fair. And when it doesn&#39;t produce the results he said would happen, he&#39;s shun by everyone. But a visiting scientist, Franklin Storm thinks that Reed built the means to cross into another dimension. He offers Reed a scholarship so he goes to New York to work on it and he works with Storm&#39;s daughter Sue and his former student Victor Von Doom. Storm also brings in his son Johnny, a mechanic to help him. When Reed says it&#39;s done, Storm decides to send him, Sue, Johnny and Victor. Reed asks his best friend Ben Grimm to join him. When they get there, they&#39;re exposed to elements not native to their own, And when they return, they start to change or gain abilities. FANTASTIC FOUR, a contemporary re-imagining of Marvel&#39;s original and longest-running superhero team, centers on four young outsiders who teleport to an alternate and dangerous universe, which alters their physical form in shocking ways. Their lives irrevocably upended, the team must learn to harness their daunting new abilities and work together to save Earth from a former friend turned enemy. I went into the cinema ready to make up my own mind. I was so disappointed when I heard that the film was a let-down. Well, it completely bombed basically. I loved the trailer. I was enthralled unbeknownst to me that the film advertised was in fact a FF reboot.<br/><br/>And that&#39;s what still sells it to me now despite all the flack it&#39;s getting. This is a reboot. It&#39;s a stand-alone film with inspiration from famous comics and the characters within them. I guess it&#39;s easy for me to sayI don&#39;t have any attachment to the comics or their beloved characters.<br/><br/>I adore the fresh, grounded approach to known stories, in this case the younger characters are more modern and seem to deal with 21st century issues. The superpowers are explained by science much like other superhero films but in a way that seems like it could quite possibly happen in the news today. It sounds silly to say that it doesn&#39;t feel far-fetched by the atmosphere that engaged me leading me into a reality that made it seem possible.<br/><br/>Using a body horror angle to introduce the characters&#39; powers was a breath of fresh, cool air. To show these charactersreal people would behave was something new that I felt needed to be done to refresh the superhero genre. Some effects seemed a little gimmicky but only after a friend pointed it out to me. I think they could&#39;ve actually taken the whole story in this direction (as the horror was only hinted at and quickly brushed aside) however they chose to skip ahead and get to the action.<br/><br/>Not a lot of people enjoyed the pace of the film, they complained about the lack of action and the slow-burning build that seemed to drag. I however, loved the detail that went into the set-up for these charactersI&#39;m not easily engaged by constant action. Anda reboot, it seemed important and such a good opportunity to flesh out a completely new origin. I think people wanted to see more of the superheroes and didn&#39;t care much for the people behind them. Despite this, the characters personalities&#39; were quite one-dimensional which explains why the first 2 acts fell short for a lot of people.<br/><br/>This leads to an issue with the third act, which for the length of the film, seems like an after-thought. In my mind, they could&#39;ve gone two ways. First, they could&#39;ve given more running time to allow for a better built-up, fleshed out and authentic action sequence that threaded better into the story rather than choosing a dark and brooding character to suddenly just go, &#39;you know what? Screw Earth.&#39; Or, they should&#39;ve made the final act about what their new bodies would mean for their place in society i.e. make the antagonist the military/government that tries to take their freedom (crudely described; apologies). THEN we could introduce Doctor Doom in the sequel. Get where I&#39;m going?<br/><br/>But alas, this was not the case and therefore this was far from a perfect film. However, I still enjoyed ita whole based on the sum of it&#39;s good parts. So when I saw that they&#39;re &quot;rebooting&quot; Fantastic Four, I thought, &quot;this could actually be really good. This has the chance to start things over and be something great.&quot; The trailers showed potential - they featured a new premise with some great new concepts. Also, take note that I&#39;m not a superhero/comic book fan. I am a filmmaker, though. <br/><br/>Josh Trank is the director of this film. He also directed the film Chronicle, and I think that&#39;s a great movie, with several characteristics that are actually similar to this film. <br/><br/>I think the first major clue for me that this movie was doomed was, surprisingly, its tagline. &quot;Change is coming&quot;. As a filmmaker, I know that a big concept movies want to have nowadays is &quot;everything changes&quot; - the idea that everything is started over or some big event is going to happen. One of The Amazing Spider-Man 2&#39;s taglines was &quot;everything changes&quot;. Transformers 4 had the tagline of &quot;the rules have changed&quot; and &quot;everything will change&quot;. This film&#39;s taglines are &quot;change is coming&quot;, and &quot;when you change the world, prepare to defend it&quot;. Movie taglines dealing with &quot;change&quot; are typically weak and overused methods of making movies seem like they&#39;re creating a &quot;clean slate&quot;, or for lack of a better word, a reboot. If your movie tagline deals with change - at least make the film somewhat memorable. These three movies weren&#39;t memorable. <br/><br/>Another major clue for me that this movie was doomed was its running time of 100 minutes. Why? Because when you have a film like this - a reboot, where it has to introduce various new characters, set them up and a new premise/universe, the movie isn&#39;t going to be an hour and a half long. It&#39;s going to be two hours. Those extra twenty- thirty minutes can make a difference. For the record, the first two Fantastic Four movies had around the same running time. The original film was only six minutes longer. But that movie wasn&#39;t the best one, either. <br/><br/>I reminded myself of X-Men. X-Men was a great movie. It had a similar running time, but not the same task,it wasn&#39;t a reboot. Yetthe first installment in a franchise, it did a fantastic job at setting things up. There isn&#39;t much that&#39;s fantastic about Fantastic Four. <br/><br/>Now to tell you what&#39;s wrong with this movie. First off, the pacing. The running time really is a problem. This film is rushed beyond belief and its plot is nonsensical. The characters&#39; introductions are decent enough, particularly the Fantastic Four, but their roles throughout the rest of the film are disconcerted. It gets very boring when things are meant to be exciting. Exposition can be tiring, but after the exposition ended and the action was supposed to pick up - it didn&#39;t. Second, the plot. As I said above, the film&#39;s plot seemed interesting. It had potential and it looked like it could go somewhere, especially considering how superhero movies nowadays have managed to flesh out their stories and make them very enjoyable. There are even hints at awesome things to come at certain points. But the film&#39;s in shambles. You hope and feel it will go somewhere, but in its hour and a half running time, it feels so empty. One of the reasons for that is the third thing, the writing. The writing isn&#39;t good - the film&#39;s climactic conflict feels backed up into the end of the movie, because there wasn&#39;t enough time to set it up. The writing caused the pacing to be terrible - transitions between scenes weren&#39;t good and some scenes either went on for too long or were far too short. This movie shouldn&#39;t have been afraid to be longer (or the studio should&#39;ve let it be that way) - it could have done that and been so much better. I also don&#39;t know why the Torch was played by a black actor. Again, I&#39;m not a comic-book fan, and I&#39;m certainly not racist, but I know enough to know that the Torch is white. I don&#39;t understand why they couldn&#39;t keep him that way. The acting of the Fantastic Foura whole was &quot;okay&quot;. But they just didn&#39;t feel like a team - there was no bond between them, and that&#39;s what should certainly be established in a movie like this. That&#39;s a big thing that killed this film, was the lack of teamwork. Seeing them together in the movie just felt so bland because there was no real interaction between them. There are so many big, obvious things wrong with this movie. Speaking of &quot;things&quot;, The Thing is entirely CGI. No make-up, costume or anything - just a giant, naked rock monster. Yes, he&#39;s naked, too. Not even any shorts. Huh. <br/><br/>Reboots, remakes, prequels and sequels are pouring in nowadays, and many of them are constantly bombing. Fantastic Four is, unfortunately, one of them. But I&#39;m still very surprised over just how bad it turned out. This film is currently a box office catastrophe.. Very few superhero movies within the last decade have a ratinglowthis one does. It currently has a 3.9 rating on here, an incredibly low 9% on Rotten Tomatoes, and perhaps the lowest Metascore I&#39;ve seen for a modern superhero movie - 27/100. Putting the critics aside, which is what should typically be done - this movie is a boring, weak, irrational attempt to reboot the Fantastic Four series. <br/><br/>By the way, a sequel is set to come out in June 2017. Good thing they announced that before the film came out … a few months ago, of course. If you know what happened to The Amazing Spider-Man series, you may know what could very well happen here. Ultimately, while I wasn&#39;t pleased with the film, I do hope you enjoy it more than I did. The cast are some of the most promising actors of their generation, but what chemistry there is between them is swept away by wave after wave of expository dialogue and ludicrous exclamation.
