Review: A fine rendition of the comic book, this film is about the origins of the Fantastic Four. I liked it for the little things, like the difficulties each member of the team suffers adapting to their new powers, particularly Ben Grim, who is turning into a living boulder. The special effects were very good, and the character development worked very well, from the gruff Ben Grim to the impulsive Johnny Storm, they managed to capture the chemistry of the comic book team pretty well. I think it's a good one for the family and should be a good bit of entertainment for almost everyone who enjoys super hero stories.
