Crazy Credits
When the 20th Century Fox logo fades away, the F in the logo stays for a second longer before it also fades away. This parallels the Fox X-Men films, where the X in the logo stays longer also. See more »
I went to see F4 just because my favorite composer, Philip Glass, co-wrote the soundtrack with Marco Beltrami. I'm not a big superhero movie buff and have not seen the previous F4 movies either. After seeing the scathing reviews, I was expecting the to experience the worst movie I've ever seen.
To my surprise, I saw a fun and excellent movie. This movie blew the doors off of "Interstellar". I was throughly entertained throughout. Not the greatest movie ever, but certainly not deserving of all the terrible reviews either. And of course, the soundtrack is great (I knew that ahead of time; already have downloaded the soundtrack).
Give F4 a chance and go in with an open mind, and don't listen to the whiners.
