What to Know

Critics Consensus

Marred by goofy attempts at wit, subpar acting, and bland storytelling, Fantastic Four is a mediocre attempt to bring Marvel's oldest hero team to the big screen.

J. R. Jones Chicago Reader Marvel Comics continues to empty out its stable of superheroes with this entertaining tale. Apr 25, 2007 Full Review Mark Salisbury Time Out Fantastic it most certainly ain't. Jun 24, 2006 Full Review Keith Phipps AV Club A garish mediocrity. Sep 26, 2005 Full Review Matt Neal Movies Ate My Life Not as bad as you remember, thanks to some spirited performances, strong casting, a couple of cool sequences, and a vibe of campy fun. Rated: 3/5 Nov 3, 2021 Full Review Mike Massie Gone With The Twins Though definitely not one of the best comic book concepts to end up on film, it still has heart and quite a bit of entertainment value. Rated: 7/10 Sep 29, 2020 Full Review Danielle Solzman Solzy at the Movies Fox was never able to give the Fantastic Four the justice they deserve. Rated: 2.5/5 Jul 8, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

Gabriel A This movie had never been that terrible. People who hate on this Movie are either critics that are lowlives and cope for the marvel they want. Fantastic! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 05/15/25 Full Review Faiz D Pathetic. Jessica Alba was the only good thing about it. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 05/13/25 Full Review Eye C Although I can see now a couple troubles in this, I still like the movie. The thing that I always liked is the chemistry of the team, specially between Ben and Johnny. Also the VFX didn’t aged well, too much CGI. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/12/25 Full Review Henrique P Not bad chris evans is FANTASTIC (say that again) (lets ignore the stretching cgi) i do prefer the secound one but this is a good afternoin movie Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/02/25 Full Review Joey G This was a good movie. But not a fantastic movie. (Yes I know this joke is getting old.) Rated 3 out of 5 stars 04/29/25 Full Review Mason R Despite the common hate, it was truly "Fantasic" to watch! I would recommend adding it to your watchlist as it was a good movie to watch while I was sick. It also gives you some insight to the backstory if you plan on watching First Steps. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/28/25 Full Review Read all reviews
