Fantasic Four: ROTS recieves 2 stars from the Mercury News, movie not looking good!



Unfortunately Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer is not looking good as the Mercury News has given the movie a mere 2 stars and calls the movie predictable and uninspired. What I find bad is how the reviewer believes the film has no comedic value and that the plot (and script) is not strong enough to be taken seriously on any level. To make things worst the movie has a 29% rotten rating at Rottentomatoes.com. I am really starting to become upset with the quality of movies this summer as every movie that should be a winner is a total loser (with a capitol L). The Transformers and 1408 could be my last hope (please)..

They may be superheroes, but the "Fantastic Four" are unpretentious sorts. In their second cinematic outing, "Rise of the Silver Surfer," they fly coach, drive a Fantastic-mobile made by Dodge and are fixtures in the gossip columns.

In theory, this could be refreshing to audiences bored with arty angst from the likes of Spider-Man and Batman. But as superhero experiences go, "Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer" is mundane. It's not funny enough to be a spoof, and it's not deep enough to hold any intrigue. Even the special effects have a ho-hum, TV-style quality.

Full Review is HERE.
