“..While it's a little bit better than the first FF movie, this one trivializes the epic sci-fi stature of the story with the same bad acting, witless "witty" dialogue and drama-leeching tone..”
by Bob Strauss [LA Daily News]
2.5 of 4

“..so toothless it makes the destruction of the planet seem non-threatening..”

“..it's not that funny, it's not that exciting, and... actually comes across as rather inconsequential..”

“..Bigger, better and more polished than the first, with a quite satisfactory ratio of action set-pieces..”

"What is Tim Story thinking really", they should of never let go of Doug Jones, his voice is 100 times better than Fishburne, no offense Fishburne is a good actor/performer but his voice does not fit The Silver Surfer, this was a bad call!. I am really upset, I am a big fan of the Fantastic Four & The Silver Surfer and I think that Fishburne's voice is to strong & to deep, it just doesn't sound right, I respect Mr. Fishburne, I have enjoyed his movies and I will support him in any movie/film, I just think he is not the adequet voice for The Silver Surfer.....as a matter a fact I think he would play a Great voice as Galactus, that would be a Brilliant idea, do you think anyone can do something about this? maybe they should let the Fans Vote on who they rather hear as the voice for The Silver Surfer...
