Quite possibly the most pointless movie I've ever seen. Nothing significant happens whatsoever. It takes around an hour for the title characters to gain their powers, after which point the movie completely bypasses any semblance of a second act and rushes through a brief and laughably bad final act. The film was poorly conceived and clearly only made so that Fox wouldn't lose the rights back to Marvel.
This 2015 film about the Fantastic Four came out before the MCU began. Four young people grow up and join forces to fight former their teammate, Dr. Doom, and the strange world that he claimed as his own after an experiment goes awry. Tedious, painful to watch and a bit hard to fully follow, F4 is a massive dud from beginning to end. Miss this.

Sue Storm: You want to be famous?
Reed Richards: I just want my work to make a difference.
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?
