Pretty Good

Good story, Not enough for a whole film

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

A Fantastic Wedding...that was the plot, right? Sue and Reed are finally getting hitched.Oh, wait, they switch powers, yeah, that happened. A troupe and an expected and welcomed one in Sci-Fi Television shows, one that gives the actors the chance to playfully mock one another and gives the audience some comic relief...but not really something you'd expect in a major high budget movie In a movie like this it feel sort of cheap, lazy, but hey, we get the Silver Surfer...kind of.We get a few glimpses of the Silver Surfer that is. We get to see him fly around on his surf board and really do nothing at all. The Silver Surfer basically just, well, surfs.And then back to the wedding and then...well, there are bad guys and big ones and, well, they sort of get shadowed by, well, nothing.Don't get me wrong, it was OK, more or less. There were entertaining parts. You get to see Alba almost naked again rather than developing her as a character and Johnny and Ben are entertaining.But the Silver Surfer is in the title and, well, that made for the disappointment. We expected him to do something big, not just surf.

The Fantastic Four learn that they aren't the only super-powered beings in the universe when they square off against the powerful Silver Surfer and the planet-eating Galactus. Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer might not be the greatest Marvel film of all time but for sure it's way better than the reboot which was boring and killed the F4 once and for all. Chris Evans, Jessica Alba, Ioan Gruffudd and Michael Chiklis return as the Fantastic 4 once again and they are all great in their roles as for Julian McMahon as Dr. Doom? So far he is the best Doom we got and that says a lot he also looks like Doom and not a kryptonite robot and i loved Silver Surfer with this whole shiny metal that he is covered with and he rides his board and he becomes cool in less than 2 seconds he is played by Doug Jones and voiced by Laurence Fishburne. Now the problems with this film is easily Galactus himself cause instead of a giant purple/blue guy we get a cloud and it makes no sense, also the film has some pretty laughable cgi mostly upon Mr. Fantastic and it doesn't have a lot of action as it should but overall it's a nice pop corn movie that it does it's job well unlike the remake 8/10.

I just watched this movie on Blu-Ray, and it was the first time I'd seen it since viewing it in the theater during its 2007 release. Then and now I found this movie to be much better than the reviews and reception it received. The only thing I can figure is that in 2007 people were just beginning to grow tired of the first wave of superhero movies. The movie is a bit hokey--but that is in staying true to its source material. As in the original film, "Rise of the Silver Surfer" features a "Thing" costume that could have been a bit better done, and an actor playing Mr. Fantastic who doesn't look a whole lot like the Reed Richards of the comic books. But the movie features a dynamic and fun plot, a well-paced storyline, extraordinary effects, and an altogether good movie experience. That being the case, I'm going to give this film 9/10 stars, after having given its predecessor 8/10. "Rise of the Silver Surfer" is actually one of the better comic book adaptations that I've seen--yes, MCU movies included. Galactus is neat (even if a complete reimagining of the comic character), the Silver Surfer storyline is neat, Doom's return is neat. It's just a neat movie all in all! If you haven't seen it or haven't seen it in a while, give it a shot. You may be surprised at how much you enjoy this film that tends to get lots of criticism.

This film tells the story of the four superheroes who fight against a mysterious but powerful enemy on a silver surfboard.Superhero films, especially Marvel films, have come a long way in the past yen years. When the first "Fantastic Four" was released ten years ago, it was just another blockbuster film. This sequel was also unable to create much shockwaves. In just a few years, Marvel films have become sensations. The films have become very entertaining, and yet every film seems to surpass the previous one. A Marvel film opening is certainly an event in itself.With this background, I'm sure if I watched "4: Rise of the Silver Surfer" when it was first released, I would have enjoyed it a lot better. The film mixes action with quite a lot of comedic scenes. It also has a lot of eye candies, which should be a recipe for success. This film has fallen victim of Marvel's success.However, I guess viewers are all very spoilt. I find the comedic scenes too ridiculous. The silver surfer look so fake that it looks like a B movie computer graphic. The plot doesn't provide enough thrills either, because a collapsing London Eye just doesn't make the cut anymore.
