Fantastic Four

Over-hyped, over-cooked and over here, Fantastic Four with its quartet of feeble supermutants, Mr. Fantastic, The Thing, The Invisible Woman and The Human Torch finally (hopefully!) brings the superhero movie franchise to the meltdown point of no return. Not even supervillain Dr. Doom can lift the picture above

Over-hyped, over-cooked and over here, Fantastic Four with its quartet of feeble supermutants, Mr. Fantastic, The Thing, The Invisible Woman and The Human Torch finally (hopefully!) brings the superhero movie franchise to the meltdown point of no return. Not even supervillain Dr. Doom can lift the picture above its special effects dependence and plot futility. Though the Brooklyn Bridge sequence is fun. Entertaining but ultimately disappointingly dull.
