    I’ve just seen it a few hours ago.

    Without going into spoilers, I thought it was very well done. The performances were outstanding and I enjoyed the chemistry between the actors. Standout performances for me were Reed and Torch.

    Initially I doubted Pedro but he absolutely delivered for me. He’s got Reed down pat with being a tortured soul and brilliant mind. Joseph Quinn I honestly was not sold on - even in the trailers. But my gosh I adored his take on torch. He had the perfect balance between being witty and intelligent, but also had a lot of heart to him. All the other actors did a phenomenal job.

    I liked what the focus of the film was and how the plot was built around it. The CGI was well done, you begin to care about these characters you’ve never seen before.

    There are minor things I didn’t like, like at times it felt quite fast-paced. This is not typically an issue for me, but I felt like being less than 2 hours, they could have given us an extra 20-30 minutes and spread it out a little, potentially give us a little more on the tail end as it wrapped up. The ending was something I actually wasn’t entirely expecting, and even though I would’ve preferred the ending to be different, I still thought it was well done. And if they HAD to go that route, it’s pretty much exactly how I’d want it to play out.

    Overall very enjoyable. Personally I’m giving it an 8.5/10. Similar to thunderbolts, it felt pretty fresh, not just as we are introduced to a new group, but mainly because it feels like it has a vision, and the film is constructed around a central idea/theme that is carried throughout the movie.


    I have to disagree somewhat about the CGI. I thought the CGI on the baby was pretty bad. I didn’t understand why they couldn’t use a real baby for most of the scenes. Aside from that, the movie was really good.

    Actually a fair bit. His “mole” was every bit comic book accurate.

    I almost dont want to with how creepy Pedro Pascal has been but I'll probably end up seeing it soon anyway

    How has he been creepy?
    This is not the platform to discuss what hes been doing but literally look at any interview with him and Vanessa Kirby
    Did ya bother actually watching, listening and reading to why they are the way they are or?
    Yeah. Doesn't make it any less weird to me
    It being weird to you doesn't mean it's creepy when other people do it

    When thing is holding the baby there's no way the whole thing could be real. It was rough in parts but for the most part I think it worked and it if allowed them to not over work a real baby i think it s for the best

    2 brief scenes but they're really good, paul Walter hauser nailed it. It's a different take on mole man for sure but they do a lot with very little without going into spoilers

    Oops, sorry about the spoilers!
    Honestly though, while watching i didn't realise the baby was cgi.

    When Thing was holding the baby, that was probably when the baby's CGI was the worst. I know that there was no other way to do it. But with a $200m budget I would have expected better. Aside from that I really enjoyed the movie and thought they did a great job with Galactus.

    Watched it today, it was great! When I first heard Galactus would be in it I thought they were probably going to **** it up like they messed up Kang when he got defeated by Ant-Man (just lame writing he didn't feel like a threat at all) but they actually made Galactus look like such a huge threat. Definitely lived up to the hype, my faith in the MCU has been restored.

    Watched on Saturday

    1 - Fantastic movie, no pun intended, but the word Fantastic express what was this one

    2 - The 60's feel with high Technology was great

    3 - Best representation of FF4 ever

    4 - They proved along the movie ,its a great Hero squad, as the Avengers in our Multiverse

    Spoiler Zone

    5 -
    Amazing Silver Surfer's Shalla Ball choice for the movie instead of Norrin Radd, even for the movie major plot, Sue Storm baby


    6 -
    And how she was brave, we already know what a mother can do for his son, but she was brave to pass through the upset people with the baby and convince everyone


    7 -
    I was surprised to not see any correlation between this movie and New Avengers movie, because of the FF4 spaceship coming to Earth in the 2nd post credit scene


    8 -
    About Dr. Doom,all people in the theather just yelled for him. Happy we will have another awesome time with Marvel movies since Endgame 😍
