There are no redeeming qualities to this movie. I would have turned it off, but my wife insisted we watch to the end, assuming a movie about Santa had to have a pleasant ending. Mel Gibson should be ashamed of himself.

The Fantastic Four: First Steps

Watched November, 2025.

The story just seemed slow, and the acting was boring. Ben Grimm should not be boring. I didn't like the use of the baby and it was ultimately unclear why the baby is more important other than any other baby. I liked Silver Surfer. The twist at the end made sense because no other character in the movie was going to pull it off. The movie looks like the comics of the 1960s, but it's now 2025, and 60 year old sci-fi doesn't work for me. This is a rare movie of the last few years that doesn't replace traditionally Caucasian characters with other races. Hamilton this ain't.
