Critics Reviews: 6 out of 10

Boston Globe
You have to give the people cranking out these "Fantastic Four" movies credit. They know some of their audience extremely well. The early dilemma in "Rise of the Silver Surfer " is this: Save the world or marry Jessica Alba . Your conscience says, "Save the world." But the Maxim reader in you knows better.

Two summers ago "Fantastic Four," the franchise that gets even less respect than it deserves, made $330 million and change worldwide when no one was looking, thus making a sequel inevitable. That's precisely how "Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer" feels: inevitable.

For non comic book fans over the age of 13, Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer is a tedious, incoherent bore. For comic book fans of any age, it is an atrocity - the cinematic desecration of one of the most storied and beloved of Marvel comic book epics.

Something has happened to Jessica Alba in the past two years. It would be too much to say that she has learned how to act, but she has definitely stopped doing that thing she did throughout the previous "Fantastic Four" movie.
