    • Trivia
      Stan Lee has said that Michael Chiklis's Thing is his favourite performance in any "Marvel" film ever.
    • Goofs
      (at around 1h 30 mins) Reed asks Doom a "Chemistry 101" question about what happens when a metal is rapidly cooled. Since there's no chemical reaction involved in cooling metal, he should have posed it as a "Physics 101" question.
    • 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

    A pretty good film

    As a reader of the comics, I was really excited to finally see a movie about my favourite characters. I've learned that a FF film was in "development hell" for some decades, so when it finally came out, obviously I rushed to the theater. And, I was not disappointed at all. Of course it's not as good as X-Men 2 or Spider-Man (the original, with Tobey Maguire), but it's good for what it aims to be: a sci-fi/action movie about comic book characters. You have to understand that the Fantastic Four are not as popular as other heroes, like Iron Man i.e., besides, their stories always covered the most strange, bizarre, far out things imaginable. And, because they are a family, there are many corny moments in the movie, but the comics too have those moments, then you just have to "let it go", to really enjoy the story. Overall, it's a very decent movie about very decent people. Relax, and enjoy the ride!
