The Fantastic Four Audience Reviews

Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined
RipDelight This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
SanEat A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."
Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
David del Real Note: Most of my reviews contain spoilers, but I try that none of these spoilers "can actually spoil" any of the important surprises in the story arc, so you can read without worrying.The story of Reed Richards, Susan and Johnny Storm and Ben Grimm has reached the small screen more than once, nevertheless there is consensus between fans that this first adaptation is the best one and being a "true believer" (that's one of the first ways in which Stan Lee used to address to his fans) I want to give my two cents trying to explain why.1) None of the threats is undervalued: If they face Galactus or any other villain or danger that can actually destroy the Earth before the end of the week, we can actually feel it.2) It has comical releases but they don't try to make the jokes the most important part of the show.3) Johnny Storm (The Human Torch) has a fun-loving personality but he never acts like a jerk, Reed Richards (Mister Fantastic) is a workaholic intellectual but he is never depicted as insensitive and Ben Grimm (The Thing) is depicted as funny but his most important characteristic is that he is a good man and Susan Storm (The invisible Woman) can seem a little naive, but never superficial .... this is how heroes must be!!!4)Mystical episodes are actually mysterious. In many modern TV shows and movies, this kind of plots show an "excess of comfort" that make them less appealing. One of the great things of both this first FF and the first Spider-man TV adaptation is that their episodes concerning mystical stuff feel actually mysterious.Other versions of the story can have their good things but this first adaptation is , by a mile, the best one ever done.Thanks for reading!
Typing_away I've seen several cartoon versions of The Fantastic Four over the years. The latest one is now broadcasting on the Cartoon Network and has outstanding animation and graphics. However, I still favor this 1967 version, which consists of only 20 episodes. The animation is very simple by today's standards, but the stories and script closely mirror the comic book from that era. In fact, the simple nature of the episodes makes them more appealing to me. As I write this, the 1967 Fantastic Four episodes are being shown on Boomerang, an offshoot of the Cartoon Network. The newest Fantastic Four cartoon is a little TOO slick and fancy for my tastes.
The-Hulk There can be no doubt that this cartoon ranks as one of the best if not THE best cartoon ever produced period!!! True to the comic with the outstanding talents of Hanna-Barbera!! There can be no doubt that the entire Hanna-Barbera's world of super adventure cartoon series was the #1 series including Birdman, Space Ghost and others. Fantastic Four was and still is a fun watch even for today standards. My only problem was that the company couldn't use the Sub-Mariner because he was with another animation company and so Triton was made instead. But if you look closely this character looked much like his true self. Thanks to the genius of Alex Toth. But don't let this little matter fool you, this cartoon rocks! Stan Lee and the late great Jack Kirby knew this.
zahno The stories and art direction for the series more than make up for its spare animation. These cartoons were made when companies understood that translating a comic to the screen requires keeping intact the elements that make the comic enjoyable and successful. If you enjoy the Lee/Kirby era of the Fantastic Four, you'll enjoy these faithful adaptations. Series is a lot of fun.
