The motion picture Fantastic Four is based on Marvel’s longest running comic book series, which has well-earned its moniker as “The Greatest Comic in the World.” While several Marvel comics-to-film adaptations have preceded FANTASTIC FOUR, most notably the “X-Men” and “Spider-Man” features, FANTASTIC FOUR required, for self-evident reasons, four times the special effects power of any previous comic-to-film epics; indeed, the film’s finalized effects are so groundbreaking that the technology used to create them didn’t even exist a year ago. But for all its state-of-the-art effects, what makes a film like the FANTASTIC FOUR is the humor and emotion. The characters are, after all, the superhero world’s most famous dysfunctional family. The film stars Ioan Gruffudd (Horatio Hornblower, King Arthur, Titanic), Jessica Alba (Sin City, Honey), Chris Evans (Cellular, The Perfect Score), Michael Chiklis (The Shield), Julian McMahon (Nip/Tuck) and Kerry Wahington (Ray, Mr. and Mrs. Smith). Fantastic Four is directed by Tim Story (Barbershop, Taxi).
