Okay just got back from seeing it:
Very very good. I enjoyed alot, I would say it is better than the first one: the characters are more fleshed out instead of just being focused on Ben...he as actually the least centred on, this is more Johnny's and Reed's time to shine. The Silver Surfer was really cool and Fishburne's voice worked perfectly. There were a few laugh out loud moments and you did feel sorry for Johnny instead of thinking..."dick". Doom wasn't as prominent as I would have liked although he did cause some damage. Galactus wasn't disappointing...I know shock but he wasn't just a cloud...there was something in there and I am sure I could see a face in the fire that looked suspiciously like the Galactus we were hoping to see. His "death" was a little sudden though...which brings me on to the flaws:
1) Why can't Story do long action sequences? That is one of the major problems I have, just as they are getting good they end. The Johnny Vs Doom fight near then is mint...then it ends....suddenly...LONGER ACTION PLEASE.
2) Doom should have had the Power Cosmic far longer and he looked a little silly on the surf board...he also looked like Vader
3) Some of the CGi is really bad. The Reed dance sequence looks so fake which is a shame.
4) NOT ENOUGH OF THE FANTASTICAR
5) Sue's "death" was a little pointless but it was touching.
6) Okay so is Alicia the Aunt May of these films? She doesn't shut up teaching the team morals...bleugh!
7) NOT ON LONG ENOUGH!
8) Sue pissed me of a treat in this film. She didn't shut up complaining and whining I wanted to slap her. Alba looks like a doll...but she looks nice on the photo printed in the paper.
9) Stan's cameo was disappointing, I think he should have stayed as Willie and got rejected that would have been better.
All in all some of the flaws aren't bad enough to spoil the film but it could have been far better and so I voted Above Average. It was better than the first film but no Spider-Man, Batman Begins, Hulk
oldrazz
or X-Men.
Hopefully 3 will improve on the mistakes prevelant in both of these films.
7/10
