The 2005 'Fantastic Four' gets the highest rating for one reason: Jessica Alba. Who doesn't love Jessica Alba? The haters? Everyone has haters, so don't listen to them. She has her own jeans and a water company, plus she's fine as hell. That's the combo. Rich and pretty. If only I was either of those! This movie isn't terrible, but the acting leaves a lot to be desired... mostly from Jessica Alba. OK, I know I said she was the best part of this movie, but I meant as eye candy. She can't act her way out of a trash can in this movie.
It's an origin story, which I can get easily bored with because they're all the same. There's the part that shows the hero's life before the change, then they learn to use their powers, then they misuse their powers, and then they win.
