As a reader of the comics, I was really excited to finally see a movie about my favourite characters. I've learned that a FF film was in "development hell" for some decades, so when it finally came out, obviously I rushed to the theater. And, I was not disappointed at all. Of course it's not as good as X-Men 2 or Spider-Man (the original, with Tobey Maguire), but it's good for what it aims to be: a sci-fi/action movie about comic book characters. You have to understand that the Fantastic Four are not as popular as other heroes, like Iron Man i.e., besides, their stories always covered the most strange, bizarre, far out things imaginable. And, because they are a family, there are many corny moments in the movie, but the comics too have those moments, then you just have to "let it go", to really enjoy the story. Overall, it's a very decent movie about very decent people. Relax, and enjoy the ride!
Being a huge fan of Led Zeppelin, I'd like so much to think this movie is great, or good, or average, or... But no. This movie is one of the most boring I've ever seen, unfortunately. While on stage (and on record, of course) Zep is THE band, this movie falls flat in capturing their energy and glorious brilliance. This could be a terrific movie, but is so badly done! I like some of the performances ("Rock And Roll" being my favorite) and Page's fantasy sequence, just great, but the rest of the movie SUCKS! Zep deserved a better movie... so we got "How The West Was Won". Praise God! If you want a truly great rock movie, go and see "Gimme Shelter" by The Rolling Stones. THE BEST ROCK MOVIE EVER!
