October 31, 2007Much more family-friendly and better than the original. The sequel definitely makes going to the movies worthwhile.

April 6, 2009Slightly better than the first, the look of the Silver Surfer is er...ice cool hehe the 4 are ok..alittle cheesey looking but ok. Again I've seen this type of story line before (planet eating baddie) but its not too bad, but not great either.

March 12, 2009A worthy sequel with some great effects, an introduction to a new character and a mix of powers make an entertaining watch.

February 7, 2009well made follow up, although a bit silly, that can laugh at itself quite easily unlike some of the silly comic book hero films like spiderman. lots more action than the first installment. fav comic book hero films now go in this order... 1) x men 2) x men 2 3) batman returns 4) ... ...( read more )

July 4, 2009I didn't think that the first film was too bad; the special effects were... pretty special and I just felt it was a weak introduction to the Marvel comics franchise. So I guess I was expecting this sequel to make up for it, or at least be much better. But it wasn't; in fact, it w... ...( read more )

Sure, the CGI work is all pro and the Silver Surfer effect is a cool visual but the dumb lines and forced chemistry just don't cut it. full review

Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer is more ambitious than its predecessor. It's also more cluttered and less fleet: The light, pleasingly casual quality of the first picture has evolved into so... full review

In Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, our heroes get what they deserve: a decent action flick with a jolt of visual wow. full review

The film fails to sustain its modest running time of 87 minutes. full review

Although FF:ROTSS comes from the same place as Spider-Man (New York, and Marvel editor Stan Lee's noggin), this sequel to the 2005 Fantastic Four debut is lackluster, even by comparison to the lacklus... full review

The target audience appears to be Cartoon Network fans. Anyone outside that category is likely to find Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer a dull slog no avalanche of razzle-dazzle digital hooey... full review

Rise of the Silver Surfer doesn't aspire to much. It just happens to have the three things it needs -- velocity, artistry and a pretty good story. full review

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
It's not egregiously awful like the first film. Just plain awful in that formula way that kills your spirit and all hope for summer movies. full review

Kyle Smith, New York Post
These B-list demigods are so proudly, intergalactically mediocre that both the 2005 original and the follow-up tend to disable my super-snark beam. full review

October 19, 2007This movie was way better than the first one. The creators stuck to the story that was in the comic books. The only thing I disagree with is that the Silver Surfer does not get his power from his board. He can call his board back to him at will, and he can even recreate it if it is damaged. Other than that, excellent movie.
