Movie Thoughts: Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer
Posted Wed, 7th Nov at 9:11 AM
So the sequel to the okay Fantastic Four movie, Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer doesn’t have a 2 in it, why is that?
The Good:
- These super heroes are celebrity’s, makes a welcome difference to the usual we hate the hero storyline.
- Fantastic special effects as usual, the Silver surfer is really well done.
- Great pacing throughout the movie, nothing stuck out as really bad here.
The Bad:
- We didn’t get to see Galactus as he was in the comic books. :-(
- Felt like yet another origin story, though with a twist.
Overall:
It was great fun to watch this movie. I even enjoyed it more than Spiderman 3 as it stayed focused on keeping the action moving. This movie is what popcorn was made for.
