Fantastic Four

A DVD that I recently picked up was "Fantastic Four".  Directed by Josh Trank and came out in 2015.  Unlike the other Fantastic Four movies directed by Tim Story, this one showed the superheros at a younger age.  I thought it was interesting how the characters were young and that helped to emphasize their recklessness and impulse.  One of the things that I liked was the development of their relationships with one another when they were building the teleportation device together.  It was interesting to see how even Victor Von Doom became friends with the others.  That just helped to emphasize the calamity of their clashing with one another when Victor turned evil.  I didn't like the development of Reed and Ben's relationship.  They didn't really give Ben that much personality so it was hard to truly see their friendship as completely genuine.  Overall, I thought the movie stood out a bit because it showed superheros in their adolescence stage.
