Ilikehorrormovies At least it's better than Fant4stic (2015). I'd thought about reviewing the first one but the movie I got didn't work so I skip that one and watch this one instead. I've have to admit this film is not bad in my opinion. I heard there where supposed to be a spin-off to Silver Surfer but they canceled it. In my opinion I think Fantasic4 3 would of been better then seeing Fant4stic because that film is disappointing and yes I know this film franchise is not great but at least it's more entertaining to watch them then Fant4stic.
generationofswine 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.
jimbo-53-186511 In some ways The Fantastic Four: Rise Of The Silver Surfer got off to a rather bad start when I realised that it opened up with arguably the two dullest members of the Fantastic Four getting married. I wish I could say that I was wrong and that I was being unnecessarily harsh, but sadly this second film in the franchise never really worked for me;After I watch a film I'll usually look at its rating and see what the critics thought of the film that I've watched and I must admit to being somewhat surprised that the critics generally gave this film 'positive' feedback and many said that it was more fun and less boring than the first film. Well maybe I watched a different film because I actually thought it was more boring, less fun and less interesting than the first film...Starting the film with the approaching wedding of arguably the two dullest characters in the franchise didn't give the film the best of starts as far as I was concerned, but to then drag this aspect out for about a third of the running time meant that the film started to get on my wick. Even when the film does get going it never really caught my interest mainly because I felt that the story wasn't explored or developed properly - little is really learnt about the Silver Surfer or his cause (other than helping some other worldly being to destroy planets across the universe). The writers never really attempt to explain a lot of what is happening in this film which wouldn't be as much of a problem if the film had a sense of fun to distract from the poor storytelling, but because it doesn't the weak story stands out all the more. I also thought that the idea of The Fantastic Four temporarily switching powers could potentially have been interesting, but here it seemed to be played more for laughs and ultimately went nowhere and had little impact on the story. The only thing that I actually liked about this film was Michael Chiklis and Chris Evans as The Thing and The Human Torch respectively. Their camaraderie did give the film some lift and both Chiklis and Evans were every bit as good as they were in the first film. It's a shame really that many other plot elements are so weak.I'm somewhat surprised that this film has a similar rating to the first film as to me there are pretty much worlds apart in terms of quality. Whereas the first film offered the viewer an interesting exploration of normal people getting superpowers following exposure to radiation coupled with heart, amusing banter and a fairly well developed villain. The sequel offers a poorly developed and uninteresting story, a dull antagonist that offers no real menace, a silly use of superpowers and to top it all off it also offers one of the weakest ending to a film that I've ever seen. Those looking for silly special effects will be well-catered for me, but if you're like me and value content over style then this sequel is one I suggest you avoid.
caseynicholson 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.
