Other mistake: If you look closely after the film leaps ahead a year, Reed's file on Ben lists his birthdate as 1986, but the prologue of the film which features Ben and Reed at roughly 10 years old each is set in 2007. The math doesn't add up.
Fantastic Four (2015)
1 other mistake
Directed by: Josh Trank
Starring: Jamie Bell, Miles Teller, Kate Mara, Michael B. Jordan
Continuity mistake: Young Reed has blue/green eyes but older Reed has light brown eyes. Eyes never change color with age.
Dr. Franklin Storm: Victor, stop! We are not gods, just people. And we are stronger together than we are apart.
Trivia: This reboot was given the green light due to the somewhat disappointing box-office numbers of the previous two "Fantastic Four" films. A reboot was considered "less risky" financially. Sadly and quite ironically, this film earned even less than those two films, bringing in roughly $100 million less worldwide than the prior film and nearly $200 million less than the first.
Question: Victor got his powers when his suit fused with him. Ben got his when he got pelted with rocks. Johnny was blasted with fire which explains his ability. But, how did Sue and Reed get their abilities?

Answer: It is believed that the heat from the radiation caused Reed to start "melting", which is how he got his rubber powers. It is unknown why Sue got invisibility.
