    Storyline

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Stan Lee: (at around 43 mins) Although Lee has made cameos in many Marvel movies, this is the first time he has played a character from the comics: Willy Lumpkin, the Fantastic Four's kindly old mailman. His line was supposed to be, "Welcome home, Dr. Richards," but he changed it to, "Welcome back to the Baxter Building, Doctor Richards!"
    • Goofs
      (at around 49 mins) When Reed is testing Johnny Storm's ability to "flame on" in a test chamber constructed of titanium, the recorded temperature exceeds 4000K. Titanium melts at 1941K, and boils at 3560K. As there were slots in the chamber walls, it is unlikely that any insulation would have been effective in maintaining the integrity of the chamber.
    • Quotes

      Johnny Storm: Wake up, Ben. Hey, rise and shine, big boy. How you feeling?

      Ben Grimm: Where am I?

      Johnny Storm: Back on Earth. We're in quarantine. Victor's medical facility.

      Ben Grimm: Reed? Sue?

      Johnny Storm: Oh, they're fine. Everybody else is fine.

      Ben Grimm: What's wrong with me?

      Johnny Storm: I swear to you, Ben, they've done everything humanly possible. The best plastic surgeons in the world are here, Ben. You had the best.

      [Johnny picks up a hand mirror on the bed table before Ben can reach it, reluctant to give it to him]

      Ben Grimm: Give me that mirror.

      Johnny Storm: I don't think if that's a good idea. They said the shock alone...

      Ben Grimm: I said, give me that goddamn mirror!

      Johnny Storm: Okay, Ben. Just be strong.

      [Ben grabs it from him. Then slowly raises it to look and see that he's totally normal]

      Johnny Storm: Unfortunately, the doctors just couldn't do anything to fix your face.

    • Crazy credits
      There is a scene in the closing credits: Dr Doom is seen on a ship heading to his home country Latveria.
    • Alternate versions
      In the US/UK a modified version was released on DVD. For example, the UK release has scenes, dialogue and effects shots different to the Hong Kong, French and German versions. There are reports of the Canadian version being affected also. These changes include:
      • Reed and Sue rekindling their romance is shown in a scene with the pair walking and talking, with the Statue of Liberty in the background. The Hong Kong version loses this scene and replaces it with one where the two are seen in a planetarium, whereby the scene ends rather abruptly before the pair kiss
      • Dr Doom saying "Goodbye, Ben" is missing from the final fight scene in the Hong Kong release, but present in the UK edition
      • When Dr Doom is engulfed in the fire at the end, his yell has him emitting a fiery breath in the Hong Kong release but this effects is missing from the UK edition
      • Dr Doom's line as he emerges from the fire is cut short in the Hong Kong release. The words "A little heat?" do not appear, but are in the UK edition
      • During the final confrontation in the UK release as The Thing uses his foot to direct water at Dr Doom, Mr Fantastic helps by using his powers to direct the water from the fire hydrant onto Dr Doom. However, he is not present in the Hong Kong version and The Thing seems to defeat Doom by himself
      • Reed's proposal to Sue is also different. In the UK version, he bends down on one knee by stretching himself, whilst maintaining eye contact with Sue. In the Hong Kong release, he actually gets down on one knee for real
      • Dr Doom's voice is different in both version. In the UK version his voice sounds normal, whilst in the Hong Kong edition his voice takes on a more eerie quality, and sounds like he is talking from behind his mask

    8/10
    Way better than Fant4stic (2015)
    This movie is very enjoyable like it don't need a dark tone and Dr.Doom looks better. I'd wish I watch the 90s one even though it didn't age well but still I want to. At least the characters are likable then Fant4stic because the characters in the movie are lifeless while in this film there not boring. I know the film is not the best but I have a good time with it
