What to Know

Critics Consensus

Dull and downbeat, this Fantastic Four proves a woefully misguided attempt to translate a classic comic series without the humor, joy, or colorful thrills that made it great.

Kristy Puchko CBR "Fantastic Four" is a profound mess. It's not fun. It's not exciting. It's far from action-packed. And it's most certainly not fantastic. May 18, 2018 Full Review Jason Bailey Flavorwire A poorly constructed, ineptly executed, flatfooted piece of Branded Product that plays as though it were written by a piece of software fed every superhero movie script to date and instructed to synthesize them. May 27, 2016 Full Review Richard Roeper Chicago Sun-Times A lightweight and basically unnecessary attempt to once again bring some cinematic life to one of the lesser teams in the Marvel Universe. Rated: 1.5/4 Aug 13, 2015 Full Review Yasser Medina Cinefilia Frankly, it's one of the most heavy and boring superhero movies I've ever seen. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 2/10 Jul 29, 2025 Full Review Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies Trust me when I say this – reading about the movie is a lot more fun than watching it. Rated: 1.5/5 Aug 20, 2022 Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review All build-up and no pay-off, Fantastic Four attempts to reboot the popular Marvel superhero team with new actors, a fresh young director, and a studio whose rocky track record with Marvel properties doesn't promote confidence. Rated: 1.5/4 May 29, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

Jonathan O I believe this director snorts cocaine and believes his vision of fan4stic would be great. We'll it doesn't is too dark, very low energy and The Thing doesn't have a dick and balls and really wasteful great cast and terrible editing and director. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/30/25 Full Review Travis B Sometimes i re watch movies years later to see if i was just too early to something wonderful.....this is not that movie it is trash Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/30/25 Full Review Londyn L “Gotta say… its MID” This movie was not bad, but it was not good at all, most of the time the cgi flunked, especially when they showed Johnny, and the casting for the storms isn’t great, no one expect Ben and Reed and chemistry. But if you ignore all the flaws, the movie itself is pretty good, Doom is good (but his design isn’t) when he uses his powers on earth, I loved this version of Reed and the cgi for him is pretty good, and most of the time Ben had good cgi. But this movie wasn’t bad! Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 07/30/25 Full Review Jelisije J This is not a bad film they introduce the characters and the story was well written and easy to follow. That being said this is the prequel to the fantastic four where the characters barely know each other and we have to go through the process of building the relationships between these characters. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 07/29/25 Full Review Breno S Simplesmente horrível, cenas de ação péssimas. Em nenhum momento eles contém um aspecto família que é algo essêncial na equipe. Não passa nem mesmo uma impressão de emprego. O CGI foi muito mal ultilizado. Um vilão que tinha um potêncial absurdo, e foi retratado como uma nuvem. Personagens que não tem nenhum vínculo um com o outro. Ninguém tem cenas próprias boas. O filme está repleto de acontecimentos e fatos inúteis para a história. O filme contém acontecimentos rápidos e antecipados. E por fim o elenco não combina com as características dos personagens. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/29/25 Full Review Rohaan P The is not fun, it's not funny, it's not action-packed and most important it's not fantastic. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 07/29/25 Full Review Read all reviews
