The Fantastic 4

The only good thing about the Fantastic 4 was that it had three hot people in it. The rest of the movie sucked ass. It tried to be as entertaining as X-men but failed. Jessica Alba isn't much better in this movie than she was in Honey. But at least I liked the music in that movie.

The guy who was in Cellular last year is nice eye candy. He tries at some funny lines but he's like that annoying guy who thinks he's "all that" 24/7- he gets annoying. The guy from Nip/Tuck plays an okay bad guy but I liked him much better as Balthazar in Spelling's "Charmed" TV series.

The special effects weren't bad. The rock character was pretty interesting to watch. And some of the crash 'em up scenes were okay, although most of them were on the trailer.

The movie is about a scientist who is so engrossed in his work that he sells his idea to a colleague from MIT who has built a successful company and the only invention that can bring about reconstructing DNA or something scientific like that. They go out into space and an experiment gone awry changes their molecular structure. After they find out by accident what their powers are, they work around the clock trying to get rid of them.

Alba used to be in love with the scientist but is now with the successful suit, which causes a love triangle to form. I didn't care who ended up with whom because the movie was just too boring. I couldn't believe how bad it was. But even at that, it was better than War of the Worlds. But that's not saying much. No Oscars here folks.

See this movie if you're bored and want to get out of the heat! It's definitely a rental.

Worth the money rating: $$ ½
