Here is My Movie Review of Fantastic Four Rise of the Silver Surfer

 

Here is my movie review of Fantastic Four Rise of the Silver Surfer. 

So basically what happens is that it takes place after the first movie left off and you have Reed Richards Who wants to propose to the storm. Then you'll have Dr Doom Who is teaming up with the military. Then you have the Silver Surfer Who is with Galactus but then he learns that Galactus is coming to earth So it is up to you The Fantastic Four and the Silver Surfer to take down Dr Doom and Galactus and save the world. That is basically what the story is for this movie.  

Now the acting in this movie is kind of mixed there are some performances that I like well that is one performance I still don't like.  

Ioan Gruffudd plays Reed Richards/Mr Fantastic In the film. I have to say he still does a great job as the character. What makes Reed Richards/Mr Fantastic Such an interesting character is that He really wants to get married to Susan Storm/the Invisible Woman And take down Dr. Doom and Galactus save all of humanity. Probably the best moment with Reed Richards/Mr. Fantastic is during the final battle of the film where Dr Doom kills Susan Storm/the Invisible Woman Read Richard / Mr Fantastic actually breaks down crying and not only what it really said but it may sense because he had to watch the love of his life be killed by Dr Doom and it is probably one of the most heartbreaking scenes of the entire film. The chemistry between him and Jessica Alba, Chris Evans, Joanne McMahon, and Lauren Fishburne Is still terrific

Jessica Alba plays Susan Storm/Invisible Woman In the film. I have to say she still does a decent job as the character. What makes Susan Storm/Invisible Woman such an interesting character is that She really wants to be married to Reed Richards/ Mr. Fantastic and take down Dr Doom and Galactus and save on humanity. Probably the best moment with Susan Storm/Invisible Woman Confronts the Silver Surfer and asks why he is attacking earth and he explains that he's doing it for his master Galactus. Not only was it really interesting But it made sense because she wanted to know why he was causing problems on earth. It is probably the most emotional moment in the film. The chemistry between her and Ioan Gruffudd Is still excellent.

Chris Evans plays Johnny Storm/The Human Torch in the film. Now much like what I said in my review of Fantastic Four 2005. I still think he does a terrific job as the character. What makes Johnny Storm/The Human Torch such an excellent character is much like the rest of the team of the fantastic boy he also wants to take down Galactus and Dr Doom and save all of humanity. Probably the best moment with Johnny Storm/The Human Torch during the final battle of the film where Johnny Storm / the Human Torch uses all the other members of the fantastic 4's abilities to battle Dr Doom. Not only was it really amazing but it made sense because he needed to harass all the powers of the Fantastic 4 To take down Dr Doom and save the world. It is probably one of the best action sequences in the film. The chemistry between him and Ioan Gruffudd is still awesome.

Michael Chiklis voices Ben Grimm/The Thing. I have the thing much like in my Fantastic 4 2005 review He is still up there with Chris Evans as Johnny Storm / the Human Torch as one of the best performances in these movies. What makes Ben Grimm/the Thing such a great character that much like the rest of the team he also wants to take down Dr. Doom and Galactus save the world. Probably the best moment with Ben Grimm/The Thing Is where he and Johnny Storm/the Human Torch switch powers for the first time and Ben Grimm is human again and Johnny Storm is made out of rocks and Johnny Storm is freaking out and not only was it really funny but it made sense because Ben Grimm wanted to be turned back into a human. It is probably the funniest moment in the film. The chemistry between him and Ioan Gruffudd Is still excellent.

Joanne McMahon plays Von Doom/Dr Doom In this film. I have to say much like what I said in My Fantastic 4 2005 Review he is still bad as the character. Now I will give credit this is not the worst villain performance I have seen because the worst villain performance is still Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor. The character of Dr. Doom in this movie Is still really bad because again much like the first film he cracks jokes he says really dumb things in the film. I don't know why Marvel can't get Dr Doom right on the big screen because a fan film called Von Doom gave us the perfect Dr Doom. Now I will give credit there is one good scene with Dr Doom in the film and that is when he confronts the Silver Surfer for the first time. But that being said it's not enough to redeem the character Though I will say this one is slightly better than the one from the 2015 film. but that's not saying much because Even in the 1994 Fantastic 4 movie they still got him wrong. The rivalry between him and the fantastic 4 is decent.

However the absolute big stand out of the entire film is Laurence Fishburne as The Silver Surfer. What makes The Silver Surfer such an incredible character is that he isn't evil he is just Trying to impress his master Galactus by finding planets that he can consume for power. Probably the best moment with The Silver Surfer is where turns against his former master and sacrificing himself to kill Galactus not only was it a really powerful moment but it made sense because He wanted to redeem himself too save all of humanity. It is probably the most emotional moment in the entire film. I still think this is up there with Kelsey Grammer's performance as the Beast from X3 X-Men The Last Stand as one of the best superhero casting choices. Fun fact actors like Gary Sinise, Djimon Hounsou, and Timothy Olyphant Were all considered to voice the Silver Surfer.

Now well the film does a great job of making Silver Surfer accurate to the comic books and In terms of h motivation and design. Unfortunately the film got Galactus completely wrong because in the comics and in the cartoons Galactus is this giant celestial being that consumes the planet energy to grow more powerful. But in this film he's not even a celestial Galactus is just a looming cloud in space. This Probably up there with the wrecking crew from She Hulk as one of the worst Comic to screen adaptations of a fan favorite Marvel character. Also there was a Phantom called Silver Surfer herald of Galactus and that gave us a perfect interpretation of Galactus even though he was a bit smaller than was in the comics he was always accurate to the source material.

The directing by Tim story Is kind of mixed I will say much like in the first film he does get the dynamic between The fantastic for extremely well. Although I will say this he does get the silver surfer really closely accurate to the comic books even though it is a little different but it is still the Silver Surfer. But that being said he still gets galactic wrong like It could have gotten a actor to voice and do the motion capture of Galactus.

So in conclusion I don't think this movie is necessarily bad. I did think it has a lot of good qualities like the chemistry between the fantastic 4. Chris Evans as Johnny Storm / The Human Torch and Michael Chiklis as Ben Grimm/The Thing are the two best performances in the film. Also I do still think Laurence Fishburne is a near perfect Silver Surfer. I will t say that the action sequences in this movie are a little better than the action sequences in the first film. But unfortunately Julian McMahon is still terrible as Dr Doom. Also the character of Dr. Doom is still completely wrong. Also Galactus is the most inaccurate character of the entire film. So despite all the good things I have to say about the film. But overall the film could have been a lot better I would say it's not as bad as Daredevil 2003 because with this movie it has better acting. But I have to say this is a decent Marvel film because It had some good things and some bad things in it. I give this movie a 7/10.
