I honestly really enjoyed this movie it’s definitely not as bad as a lot of these reviews make it out to be. I’m a huge superhero movie fan and have always loved the fantastic four movies (2005) so I recently decided to do a binge and rewatch the first and second and then watch the new one. I believe that on its own this movie could be seen as pretty bad, boring, slow, etc. but paired with the other two movies I really enjoyed it. I do believe that if this was the only fantastic four movie someone watched then they probably wouldn’t like it all that much but alongside the other ones it isn’t that bad. Like you definitely have to like the idea of the fantastic four movies in general for this movie to work. I watched it through the lens of it being like a prequel because it gave much more character development and backstory. I would’ve like to have seen another movie in this series that sort of jumped off where this one left off with the plot of the original sequel and the whole silver surfer plot line again. So in conclusion, definitely watch the original two movies before watching this one (preferably in a binge like setting) and don’t let the bad reviews scare you away. Coming from me, it’s a perfectly enjoyable superhero movie.
