When the 20th Century Fox logo fades away, the F in the logo stays for a second longer before it also fades away. This parallels the Fox X-Men films, where the X in the logo stays longer also.

User Reviews

Eh how bad can it be... guess i will give it a shot....

So I was contemplating if I should watch this a few months ago and I said no. The fantastic 4 looks like high school kids... WTH is this! It already looks horrible.

I came home from work today and wanted to watch a movie. There was nothing on so I decided eh fantastic 4. There's nothing else to watch, how bad can this be...

I just wasted 2 hours of my life I can't get back..... very disappointed.... I have never wrote a review on IMDb before, but this movie just did it for me. The 2005 movie was 10 times better than this, why would you ruin fantastic four..
