Editorial Review:
Product Description: The enigmatic, intergalactic herald, The Silver Surfer, comes to Earth to prepare it for destruction. As the Silver Surfer races around the globe wreaking havoc, Reed, Sue, Johnny and Ben must unravel the mystery of the Silver Surfer and confront the surprising return of their mortal enemy, Dr. Doom, before all hope is lost.
Amazon.com: Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer is another entertaining romp for the Marvel-superhero franchise. Reed Richards, Mr. Fantastic (Ioan Gruffudd), is treading on thin ice when his fiancée, Sue Storm, the Invisible Woman (Jessica Alba), thinks he's more interested in a series of cosmic phenomena occurring around the earth than in the preparations for their upcoming wedding. Sorry, ladies, but Reed is right. The disturbances are caused by a surge of cosmic power from a mysterious being called the Silver Surfer (an all-CGI creation, modeled by Doug Jones and voiced by Laurence Fishburne), who not only zooms around the skies on his board, but also has enough power to fight the FF, sometimes by turning their own power against them, not only mixing up Sue and Reed, but also Johnny Storm, the Human Torch (Chris Evans), and Ben Grimm, the Thing (Michael Chiklis). But that's not the worst of it. The Surfer is only an opening act, a herald looking for planets that his master, Galactus, can consume for his sustenance.
With its initial installment, Fantastic Four established itself as the superhero franchise that didn't take itself too seriously, and that continues here. There are numerous moments of laugh-out-loud humor, and the most angst they suffer is whether Sue and Reed will ever be able to live a normal family life. (That, and whether they'll ever really get married, of course.) If Fantastic Four were a normal superhero franchise, the ending would be a knock-down drag-out war with Galactus, featuring the FF in a colossal battle for the planet Earth and the lives of everyone on it. Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer just doesn't do that, and we don't quite get the payoff we expected. Effects are dazzling, but the Surfer looks too metallic, more like a skyriding T-1000 robot. --David Horiuchi
On the DVD Are you getting tired of big movies initially coming out on substandard DVDs only to be released in better versions later? No such worries with the Power Cosmic Edition of Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, which delivers the goods. The double-sided disc 1 has both widescreen and full-screen editions of the movie, with two commentary tracks. On the first, director Tim Story talks about FF inside jokes and what had to be cut out of the movie. The second combines producer Avi Arad (has anyone recorded more superhero DVD commentaries?), screenwriter Don Payne, and editors Peter S. Elliot and William Hoy (only the last two sound like they were actually in the room at the same time) covering some of the same ground: comic-book references, special effects, etc. On disc 2 are five extended/deleted scenes (almost 10 minutes total) with commentary by Story, including a longer title sequence and some comic relief. "Family Bonds" is a 46-minute "fly on the wall" documentary that follows the crew as they scout locations, test early special effects, and then work with the cast. There's a multi-angle look at the Fantasticar and five featurettes (some of which are more substantial than you'd expect for that term). Topics include the development of the Fantasticar (10 minutes), the Surfer effects (15 minutes), the history of the Surfer in comic books (39 minutes, with interviews of Stan Lee, Jim Starlin, and Ron Marz, and Lee describes himself as his own biggest fan!), the Thing suit (11 minutes), and the music score (four minutes). --David Horiuchi

With the exception of Michael Chiklis, this cast just plain sucks. They bring nothing to the table as far as individual character. The story line is lackluster as well. I don't know why they would even bother to make another.

While I am a fan of Marvel Comics, this was one of the finest Marvel products brought to the big screen. This is far better than the first FF movie from 1994. Marvel continues to improve the movies they produce and this was one of the better ones. My only problem with the movie was that Galactus was "in the movie" it would have gone over much better to actually see or hear him. While i do realize the enormous cost the production company would have to endure to add him to the movie as well as increasing ... Read More

I recently saw a review talking about how the Silver Surfer was the best part of the film. I 100% agree. While the other actors and actresses fall short of greatness and still make you not care about them, the Silver Surfer was worthy of having a spinoff done for him. Besides him, Jessica Alba's hotness is the only thing I remember about this film...
Well, not really. The action was better in this film. The story was an improvement too. But seriously, I still wouldn't recommend this movie to anyone ... Read More

The movie wasn't great, but the personal angst of the Silver Surfer added a little more depth to the storyline of this movie. Special effects - real nice! Buy the blueray edition if you want more "pop" for your money.

The sequel was directed by Tim Story ("Fantastic Four" and"Barbershop") and a screenplay by Don Payne ("My Super Ex-Girfriend" and "The Simpsons") and Mark Frost ("The Greatest Game Ever Played" and "Fantastic Four"). The screenplay is based on a story by Frost and John Turman ... Read More
