Marvel's The Fantastic Four meet their greatest challenge yet in Fantastic Four: Rise of The Silver Surfer as the enigmatic, intergalactic herald, The Silver Surfer, comes to Earth to prepare it for destruction. As the Silver Surfer races around the globe wreaking havoc, Reed, Sue, Johnny and Ben must unravel the mystery of the Silver Surfer and confront the surprising return of their mortal enemy, Dr. Doom, before all hope is lost.
This was a pretty enjoyable movie. I wouldn't say that it was greatness in comic book movies like Spider-Man or Batman, but it was still pretty good. I actually thought that it was better than the original Fantastic Four. The action scenes were a lot better and much less campy looking and the story line was more than decent considering that it was a sequel. The thing that really made this movie for me, just like in the original, was the casting of Chris Evans as the Human Torch and his camaraderie with Thing. The two of them are hysterical together and the Human Torch's cockiness is priceless.
It's not the greatest comic movie ever made, but it is more than worth the trip to the theater so you can enjoy a simple action movie with great effects and some big laughs.
