Fantastic Four: Rise Of The Silver Surfer (2007)

Fantastic Four: Rise Of The Silver Surfer (2007)

In one line: Lots of special effects but weak in story

It looked like a man but completely covered in silver...and it was flying this, like...like a surfboard...


Why do all trailers look better than the film? Any why are almost all movies that introduce characters so uniformly poor?

The special effects are great, the Silver Surfer really comes to life; but the movie overall is pretty sad. The story is so simple, it could be from a comic book. Wait a minute, that's what it isBut seriously, it doesn't really do the comics justice. It doesn't have the depth; it's too light and feels like it's for kids; not really for the comic book fans.

I think the first one was much better and a much better example of what the Fantastic Four are about. This one does introduce important elements of their universe, but it's just doesn't have "it".

P.S. Don't miss Stan Lee's cameo!







No Good Rating: 6
