- spider2001almost 8 yearsOkay, come on. This movie is not nearly as bad as everyone says it is. A 9% on Rotten Tomatoes? Seriously? This movie is an origin story. It really isn't anything more. It has excellent character development, and a great musical score. Also, the acting was very good as well. Yes, they waited till the very end to have the team get together, and take on Doom. But I think that when everyone looks at this movie, that's what they immediately think of. "Oh, this movie is so bad! Nothing happens in this movie! There's no action in it! Doom looks horrible!" Okay, this movie is not that bad. Of course events take place throughout the course of the film. They become the Fantastic Four somehow, don't they? Yes, there isn't much action in it. But quite honestly, I'm sick an tired of people complaining about a movie not having enough action sequences. And then when there's too much action, they complain about that, to. Think of it as the first issue of a comic book. It's there to set up the character's stories. Does the first issue have many fight scenes? No, it doesn't. It may have one, towards the end of the story. As does this film. And people that are saying this is worst then the 2005 one, come on. Really? Have you actually saw it? This is not a terrible movie. It really isn't. It could have been a lot better. But I for one, and not upset with what we got in the long run. Come on people, this movie has an excellent story line going for itself. What it fell short of was the action. I feel that if another half and hour was added onto the run time, it could have properly handled the battle sequences. As for Doctor Doom, I'm not going to lie, he did look a little weird. But that shouldn't effect your opinion on the entire movie. Really, guys. It really is not that bad. Sure, It's not "The Avengers" or anything, but It delivers a genuine superhero origin story. Give this movie a chance, and while you are watching it, take this review into consideration.
