#FantasticFour is downright fantastic. Lovely family dynamic where each member shines. Vanessa Kirby’s Sue Storm is the grounding force. Incredible visuals & VFX. Glorious Giacchino score. Refreshing straightforward screenplay. Vast sense of scale. The retro futurism is exquisite pic.twitter.com/v0VGtweefq

I walked out of Fantastic Four thinking that it really felt like Reed’s film. My younger brother thought it was 100% Sue’s and my older brother felt like Johnny was the real standout. Really goes to show how well they handled them all.

Vanessa Kirby is easily the heart of #FantasticFour and steals the entire movie. She's a powerhouse on screen and embodies everything you'd want in a perfect Sue Storm adaptation. She's the glue that keeps the team together, a comforting mother, and such a badass. I'm obsessed! pic.twitter.com/AIxyTiO7L9

All of you owe Joseph a huge apology, he gave us THE definitive take on the Human Torch. It's nice to finally see a version of Johnny who's as smart as they are annoying. A master rage baiter, but so genuine and compassionate. I adore him so much! #FantasticFour pic.twitter.com/1pwvMWsrMw

I need to watch #FantasticFour again just for this scene alone. There’s truly nothing more powerful than a mother’s rage. pic.twitter.com/U4TLKyA2ZT

Ebon Moss-Bachrach was absolutely the perfect choice for Ben Grimm, his voice just radiated a comforting warmness and conveyed great emotion, paired with phenomenal vfx, this character was brought to life perfectly. Wish he had a little more to do. #FantasticFour pic.twitter.com/iim6muBltZ
