It was a tripe trifle, forged out of the flimsiest of scripts and topped with the most awkward of casting considerations. Of course, this doesn’t excuse the first installment in the proposed franchise. Sometimes, a family-friendly approach can find a payday, as well. What they failed to recognize was that not every movie has to be focused directly toward their mentality. So when the initial Fantastic Four film decided to drop the existentialism and go for the grade schooler, the obsessive reacted like someone had dismantled and played with their limited edition action figures. While the genre was always geared toward post-adolescent audiences with a healthy nostalgia for their collections and the characters, there remains an equally thriving underage contingent that doesn’t respond well to all the introspection and brooding. It’s the same with comic book adaptations. A gross-out slacker comedy to some will be a realistic look at a life among one’s peers to another.
It’s important to remember a film’s intended demographic.
