This film was well put together, fun, and didn't take itself at all
seriously. I am not sure where the negative hype comes from, but I find
when a good film gets bad reviews, that means most people just didn't
get it. In this case, perhaps from the last few comic book films that
attempted to "mean something," I think people forgot how to enjoy
themselves. Laden with kitsch and tongue-in-cheek humor, this movie
embraces that it comes from a comic book and allows itself to be big
and a little silly. Yes, Jessica Alba wears an impossibly tight
jumpsuit. Yes, the Human Torch is so slick and charming that, if you
met him in real life, he'd get a solid smack for his arrogance. But
this isn't real life, people, in case you forgot-this is the Marvel
Universe, where clothes are tight and the dialog...isn't. Who cares?
This movie is so fun that you wish these people did exist and would
take some media focus off the jerks that are in the public eye.
Written on IMDB a long time ago.
