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.

"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.

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.

A lightweight and basically unnecessary attempt to once again bring some cinematic life to one of the lesser teams in the Marvel Universe.

A remake so radioactive it makes previous iterations look good. It’s amazing anyone wanted to try again after this. A true testament to the likability of the actors involved, because this is a true career killer.

Frankly, it's one of the most heavy and boring superhero movies I've ever seen. [Full review in Spanish]

Trust me when I say this – reading about the movie is a lot more fun than watching it.

This movie doesn’t even deserve to have half a star and it was completely doomed from the start utterly tasteless and one of the worst movies I have ever seen

While I'm not the first or the last who will say this by any means, Fantastic Four (2015) is devoid of life, character, or intrigue. Simply put? This is the least entertaining superhero film I've had the displeasure to watch. Don't harm your eyes by watching this unless you are dead-set on experiencing every Marvel film like yours truly. You'll thank me later. Check out my more in-depth review at The Reel Ranker by searching "Fantastic Four 2015" ;)

I really don't understand the dislike for this movie. It was just better than the most recent one the the 1960's retro look. Just as much action, and a much better story.

As a long time fan of Fantastic Four I was disappointed in this version. The acting in particular is very weak. This deviated from the source material significantly enough to render this film obsolete. Either read the comics, or go back and watch the first two FF movies. Undercooked, and should be forgotten.
