Mediocre Four
1 of 1 Yahoo! Users found this review helpfulPros: Good casting, Good effects, Jessica Alba
Cons: Bad choice for Dr. Doom, Bad re-do of origin, Not much plot
Sadly the makers of this film chose to go way, way off into new territory with the origin of the Fantastic Four. I knew toexpect a certain amount of change and I was okay with that, but I don't know where they came up with this stuff.
I can forgive the origin re-do, but I really dislike the way that Dr. Doom was handled. He was bland and completely uninteresting, and I didn't care for the actor. I also don't know why they chose to go the route they did with his origin too, simply not good.
The other actors all were well chosen for their parts and did an admirable job working with a script that just never quite delivered.
Fantastic, no. Acceptable, maybe. ...
Batman Begins to make us forget Joel Schumaker
Pros: Great casting, superb acting, excellent script
Cons: I got nothing
The director of this film said that he wanted every stunt that Batman performs in this movie to actually be possible to do. This helped make a movie about a man in a bat-suit beleivable.
I'll admit I was not sure about Christian Bale at all when I first heard he would be Batman. I was wrong, very wrong.
I won't spoil the story for you. You can do that all by yourself. I will say this: buy this movie. Do no rent it. Buy it.
That is all. ...
