Starring Ioan Gruffudd (Reed Richards), Jessica Alba (Sue Storm), Chris Evans (Johnny Storm) and Michael Chiklis (Ben Grimm) who are turning into the fantastic four - part elastic, part invisible, part fire and part stone. They are astronauts and scientists who are teamed up with Victor Von Doom (Julian McMahon) who runs his million dollar concern and can afford the trip of a few days in the space just for Richards's discovery of a cosmic storm, which will cure sicknesses and that kind of stuff. But something goes wrong and the storm comes earlier than estimated. Back in Earth, Reed finds himself elastic, calling himself Mr Fantastic, Sue finds herself invisible, calling herself Invisible Girl, Johnny finds himself being able to burn, naming himself Human Torch, and Ben finds himself becoming the thing with a body of stone. The only who seems have survived the cosmic storm is Victor Von Doom - it seems that... But some event later get the fantastic four to change their minds and stop him before it's too late.
Despite the stubborn beginning, it's a great movie with great visual effects, great and fun characters, great actors and a great story. It has also a lot of great mind of humor, that got me to burst into laughing a lot of times. Further, the photography is also smart, as well as the cinematography. Everything seem realistic or real like, anyways. The smart thing I think the director and the film company have done in this case, is to take quite unknown actors into this movie, because I think that if actors such like Charlize Theron (who has been talked about being the Invisible girl) or Nicolas Cage or another big star had gotten the roles instead of those unknown actors, it had been a bad movie... everything had not felt that good, then, I guess. Now when it is quite unknown actors (except from Alba and McMahonm, whom I knew before from Dark Angel and Nip/Tuck respectively) who have the roles in this movie it is easy to identify with the characters and feel a sympathy for them.
In other ways, it's an amazing and pleasant movie, which yet can't strike Sin City from being the best movie I have seen this year yet.
