The story line was not strong. It left me not wanting to finish the movie

One of the worse movie I have ever seen, the first two was much better

This movie is lame and doesn't follow the comics at all

I'm sick and tired of Sony destroying great characters and storylines

La verdad no recomiendo esta pelicula esta aburrida

Wrong cast story shoots cut the list goes on try again

not as good as last fantastic four movies. Very disappointing

This movie I would rank at the bottom of comic book movies.

This movies is not good, but I bought it for my collection.

Movie really sucks. Bad acting and actors do not mesh well.

did not do justice to the first movie plot makes no sense

Nothing good to mention. Just a brutal movie all around.

This was easily one of the worst movies I've ever seen.

This one was even worse than the original two films.

Not worth the money. Definitely regret this purchase

Not good, why do they keep remaking this movie????

Not a good movie, the other two were much better..

One word. Wow. The first UHD BLU RAY I got a chance to view was Fantastic Four. I also have this movie on regular Blu Ray. The differences in clarity isnt all that drastic since both movies were shot on 2k cameras and being that the UHD version is an "upscale" to 4k from a 2k source, there's still a noticeable improvement. However, the HDR is what you will undoubtedly notice. Fantastic four is a colorfully dark toned movie and right off the bat from the opening classroom scene the HDR stands out and enhances the dark tones very wellSwitching back and forth from 4k to 2k was even more astounding. The contrast between brightness and darkness is incredible. Eventually I stopped switching back and forth between sources and just stuck with the 4k. I had already seen the movie a couple times and didnt have to switchback to the 2k source to notice all the HDR implementation. Its a sight to be sight and experience.

I am a huge movie buff and normally I would not review a movie like this but they should have left the original movie as is and not make a boring afterthought remake off an original fantastic movie. The first 45 minutes of this movie is clumsy, boring and slow! Just being frank here. This is low budget movie made to make money off of the originals. They should not have made this. The veteran actors are ok but not the new ones. A real let down with unfamiliar actors. I have no idea who Dr. Reed is? The other actors were ok but not 1st tier. I am writing this as I'm watching the movie so that means it is really boring. It is now over an hour into it and still no excitement. If I would have known it was like this I would not have bought it. I doubt my opinion will change by the end of it. The head honcho chewing gum is gross and annoying. What were they thinking??? The way Victor Von Dooms character is acting is not in line with the original either and looks totally different. They find Victor still alive on the "other" planet and is wearing a cloak? Where did that come from since the planet is all rock? The whole movie is completely different as far as the story line and at this point 1 hr. and 23 minutes in is all about Victor. End of movie and I did not like it. Stan Lee was also putting his mark on this one...wow. I'm surprised. So I say, don't buy it, rent it first and you be the judge if its worth buying.

Just because you can do it doesn't mean that you should – and this wholly unnecessary and woefully terrible reboot of Marvel's most famous superteam is proof of that axiom. Say what you may about Tim Story's earlier cinematic adaptations, but as generic and middling as they were, they were at the very least entertaining. Unfortunately, the same cannot even be said of Josh Trank's back-to- basics origin story, which plays like a humourless retread of his debut film 'Chronicle' but on a bigger budget – and lest there be any doubt, it is far, far from fantastic. Not that it doesn't demonstrate such promise; the first act which establishes the friendship between the visionary Reed Richards (Miles Teller) and his tough-guy longtime best pal Ben Grimm (Jamie Bell) as well as the team dynamics between Reed and the other members of his research team – the equally brilliant Sue (Kate Mara), her hot- headed younger brother Johnny (Michael B. Jordan), and malcontent genius Victor Von Doom (Toby Kibbell) – capably lay the foundation for what could have been a character-driven drama based on their clashing personalities. Indeed, after the boys sans Sue decide on a whim following a night of intoxication to put their teleporting machine to the test, how they respond to their newfound super-powers individually and as a team should be an organic evolution from how they were before. Alas, Trank, who co-wrote the screenplay with 'X-Men' veteran Simon Kinberg and Jeremy Slater, doesn't quite know where to go from there. Rather than setting them on a course that would follow the perennial 'X-Men' theme of inclusiveness versus insularity against the rest of society, our teenage super-heroes are pretty much seen only in an isolated military facility where they are trained and from which they are deployed on covert operations overseas. While Johnny relishes the opportunity to be different, powerful and useful for once in his life, Sue and Ben are not quite so sanguine and participate insofar as there remains a possibility that the Government's research on them would yield some way of reversing their abnormalities. In the meantime, Reed has vanished off the grid, while Victor is presumed dead on the planet they had landed up on in the other dimension. One senses a conscious decision on the part of Trank to eschew the usual superheroics seen in the recent profusion of Marvel and to a lesser extent DC comic book adaptations, but the middle act drags precisely because Trank never quite finds a compelling substitute. Johnny's potential conflict with Sue and Ben over the Government's exploitation of their super-powers never amounts to anything more than a playground squabble. The estrangement between Johnny and his father (Reg E. Cathey), whose Baxter Institute had overseen the ill- fated project, is under-cooked. And last but not least, Reed's guilt over his teammates' fates as well as his strained friendship with Ben seem to vanish as quickly as he is apprehended and brought back to the facility to aid them in version 2.0 of the same project. Trank's intention of emphasising the tension within the quartet is evident and admirable, but is ultimately undone by a script that doesn't develop it in any substantive manner. Worse still, it leaves an audience looking for visual spectacle severely wanting, that not even a very busy third act manages to salvage. Doom makes an unsurprising return here as their common enemy, driven by a fusion of body and alien matter to cause global destruction and around whose defeat to ensure the survival of planet Earth becomes a rallying call for the team to unite despite their differences. It is one of the dullest and most unexciting finales we've seen in a Marvel movie, not least for the fact that it doesn't know how to collectively bring together their superpowers except in a tag-team fashion to distract their opponent. It is also on the whole one of the ugliest comic book movies we've ever seen. The planet from which the quartet gain their powers is a barren rocky wasteland that has no character or distinction whatsoever, shrouded perpetually with thick grey clouds and given the even more nondescript name of 'Zero'. The energy that gives them their abilities appears as some slimy green goo that belongs entirely in a C-grade Syfy TV movie, while their powers – whether Reed's rubber limbs or Sue's telekinesis or Johnny's pyrotechnics or Ben's rock-covered body – look equally cheesy. It is no wonder too that the eventual showdown, which takes place almost entirely on the planet surface of 'Zero', doesn't play out any much better against such a bland setting, coming off even worse than any of the action scenes in its predecessors.
