Prepare for the fantastic!

The lifelong dream of inventor, astronaut and scientist Dr. Reed Richards (Ioan Gruffudd) is close to being realized. He is spearheading a trip to outer space, to the center of a cosmic storm. There he hopes to unlock the secrets of the human genetic codes for the benefit of all humanity. Extensive government grant cutbacks nearly dashed the visionary's hopes of the historic flight, until Reed accepted a financing deal with his old college rival, Victor Von Doom (Julian McMahon), now a billionaire industrialist.

Reed's crew for the mission includes his best friend, astronaut Ben Grimm (Michael Chiklis); Sue Storm (Jessica Alba), Von Doom's director of genetic research and Reed's ex-girlfriend; and Sue's hot-headed younger brother, pilot Johnny Storm (Chris Evans). With benefactor Von Doom in tow, the four set off for the exploration of a lifetime.

The mission is uneventful - until Reed discovers a miscalculation of the speed of the approaching storm. Within minutes, the event threshold is upon them. The space station is engulfed by turbulent clouds of cosmic radiation which genetically transforms the crew. Their DNA is irrevocably altered - and so is their future.

Back on earth, the effects of the exposure are quickly revealed. Reed gains the ability to stretch and contort his body into any shape he can imagine and, as leader of the group, is given the name Mr. Fantastic; Sue is able to render herself invisible and to create and project powerful force fields as Invisible Woman; Johnny becomes known as The Human Torch, as he can now engulf his body in flames and take flight at will; and Ben, whose freakish transmutation is the most shocking, becomes an orange-colored, rock-like, superhumanly strong creature, The Thing.

Together, they turn tragedy into triumph and catastrophe into coalition, using their unique and formidable powers to thwart the evil plans of their now steely-eyed, iron-fisted nemesis Dr. Doom...

This is not in the class as Marvels comic to film brilliance of the Spider-man Trilogy, Its sits with Ghost Rider as a missed oppotunity. The plot is thin, the cast are dull, apart from Cris Evans as the Human Torch, who is the only one who has a grip on how the film should be played. There super powers are not that Fantastic ! Given what they are, they never use there powers to there full potential. A perfect example is Mr Fantastic, who can stretch any part of his body. In the film he only stretches his arms and legs. If I had that power, streching my arms and legs would be the last thing on my mind, and they would have to re-name me Mr Tripod ! This is all pretty lame, but is aimed at kids more than adults, so if your a kid, add another star.

A few enjoyable action scenes connected by wooden acting and a dull script. Managed a sequel though, so some people must like it.
