I've finally got round to watching this movie - which I've had recorded since Oct 06.This was due in part to the fact that the reviews hadn't been overwhelming and I'd been busy with other things. However, being a long time FF fan - I did feel obliged to give it a try.
Anyway, a friend of mine (Hi Dave!) has just watched it recently and said it was quite good. I then promised to watch it as well and, now I have, I must agree with him.
For what is supposedly a family orientated super-hero film I was actually surprised that it focused more on characters rather than action. The characters were pretty true to the comics esp. Ben and Johnny and their banter was particularly enjoyable. The origin, although changed from the comic, fitted the story well but I would have liked to see more action. The FF have some interesting powers which I'm sure the film makers could have done more with.
Perhaps that is what the sequel promises - let's hope so.
