What critics compared Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer to
They compare this new Fantastic Four to previous live-action incarnations…
The gigantic armoured man as a character was obviously too rich for the tastes of 2007’s Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, as in that movie, he is shown as a malevolent cloud that eats planets.
…two mediocre Tim Story-directed blockbusters, Fantastic Four and Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, made decent money but failed to launch the characters into a similar cultural space as Spider-Man or the X-Men had found in previous years.
2007’s Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer presented classic villain Galactus as a glowing cloud in space, rather than risk losing audiences with a giant purple alien in a silly hat.
Three previous big-budget Fantastic Four entries were produced at Fox, from 2005 to 2015.
