Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer (2007)

This movie wasn’t bad…at all. The problem with this movie was it felt rushed. The run time was an hour and a half and with my watching, I’ve learned superhero movies suffer if they are too short. I’m not asking for Zack Snyder Justice League length. The story at least feels fleshed out at around the 2-hour mark. Also, silhouettes don't count!! Give us Galactus, not a huge cloud!!! It felt about on par with the first movie, but this movie left so much to be desired. The stakes were bigger, but it didn't have as much of a wow factor as it should have. It's worth watching if you want to do a double feature with the first one. This as a standalone experience could have been better.
