Mercurius
Legend
...and I don't get all the nerdrage and general hatred of this movie. It wasn't great; it wasn't even all that good, but it was still reasonably entertaining and certainly not 9%-on-Rotten-Tomatoes-bad.
It was a bit gloomy and I thought Doom was somewhat silly. I never really connected with any of the characters and had the feeling that something was missing. But again, not terrible. Overall I liked the first two-thirds of the film or so until Doomy showed up. Even then the special effects were pretty fun, although the climax was rather anti-climactic and the defeat of Doom was about as quick and un-exciting as the botched Phoenix saga in X-Men: the Last Stand. But still, it was OK.
Maybe it is mainly a matter of disappointed expectations? I mean, the F4 didn't have the pinazz of the Avengers of X franchises, but the movie wasn't so bad that a well-done sequel couldn't right the ship.
What gives?
