The Fantastic Four: First Steps

I absolutely love the Fantastic 4 movies, so I was very excited to hear about the release of a new one. Honestly, I wasn’t sure how I was going to feel about this one, but I actually enjoyed it a lot. My husband and I saw this one together, and we both liked it. Everyone did such a wonderful job playing their roles. I’m not going to lie, I was hesitant at first to see this one because of the different roles and them not being like some of the original people who had played. Turns out that these guys did a wonderful job with their parts as well. This was a very enjoyable movie to see. 

Film Synopsis

Set against the backdrop of a ’60s-inspired, retro-futuristic world, Marvel’s First Family faces a daunting challenge. Forced to balance being heroes with their family bond, they must defend Earth from a space god and his enigmatic herald.
