The Fantastic Four
“Part muscle. Part elastic. Part fire. Part invisible. Together, it's clobberin' time!”

Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.
Four astronauts acquire powers that the production can only sometimes afford to show. This early Fantastic Four adaptation has earnest comic-book enthusiasm, a conspicuous castle painting and a very modest cosmic light show. The charm lies in watching the performers commit to a much larger film than the one around them.
