Early screenings for FANTASTIC FOUR were today and reactions are hitting Twitter like crazy right now. It sounds like the reboot isn't going to be the next X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST or DEADPOOL tentpole franchise for 20th Century Fox.
It was quite hard to find any really positive reactions, by the way.
Enjoyed #FantasticFour. Could've done with more Doom, but assume being saved for the sequel. Took a while to get going, but a solid reboot— NikNik (@NikNik_88) August 4, 2015
#FantasticFour felt less like a superhero movie and more like an update of a Michael Crichton 'science gone mad!' story.— Rgirvan (@RobGirvan) August 4, 2015
Just watched #FantasticFour. Better than I'd hoped, easily the best of all the efforts, but a ropey last act and not a lot of superheroics— Christian Blanc (@SonOfMrBlanc) August 4, 2015
#FantasticFour was good. Bit slow but good effort 👍— Sean Shears © (@SeanShears) August 4, 2015
#FantasticFour #Cineworld with no pay off for the good character work Each actor is good but its actual more interesting b4 they get powers— Logan Barnard (@nodaybuttoday81) August 4, 2015
Never seen a movie be THAT good for exactly half and then absolutely fail. Disappointed! Love Myles but that was awful! #FantasticFour— ② Kat ② (@sparkly_spike) August 4, 2015
@DailySuperHero the entire film feels like a buildup for something bigger than anything that happens. Like it's a buildup just for a sequel— Ciaràn (@WTFItsCiaran) August 4, 2015
@DailySuperHero just watched an advanced screening- Promised a lot & good cast but story lacks depth & film is too short, poor final scenes!— Andy (@andyhowe7) August 4, 2015
Here's how boring Fantastic Four is: there are two major action scenes in it. One is the accident. The other is the climax. That's your lot.— Mathew Buck (@FB_BMB) August 4, 2015
I was genuinely willing to give Fantastic Four a chance but I'd watch Green Lantern ten times over before rewatching that.— Ross Maclean (@ross_maclean) August 4, 2015
Look for The Daily SuperHero's review sometime Wednesday night or Thursday morning.
