WHAT?


Since I haven't seen F4 yet I cant exactly give a nuanced argument for why people may have liked those films more. Just going by the reviews, I'm going to guess F4 is so disliked by general audiences b/c the first act is over an hour long, it doesn't have a middle act, the 3rd act makes little sense and is a mere 15-20 minutes long, and the special effects stink.

Pretty much every reviews makes it sound like the movie is one like first act with almost no payoff for a very slow build up. Kind of hard for people to like a movie when even Joe Shmoe and Peggy Buckaloo can tell its not a complete film.

Yeah the defenders of this film can talk about "trank's part" and "kinberg's part" but the reality is that even if the film was 2 hours long the origin was way too long.


Reboots shouldn't do origin stories.
All set up and no pay off equals one of the worst comic movies ever.
There is a B reel out there showing some cut scenes of the four in the fantasticar. I get a Ironman 3 vibe from it, where genius solves problem in old garage instead of ye old science lab.
