RIGHT OUT OF THEATER!! Fantastic Four First Steps Movie Review where we talk Galactus, Silver Surfer, & the entire cast + plot! - Fantastic Four First Steps Post-Credits Scene (Ending Explained) https://youtu.be/7Vlzlek1L9o - Get Our NEW Fantastic Four Inspired Tee! https://www.rejectnationshop.com/ - Visit https://huel.com/rejects to get 15% off your order Greg Alba & Roxy Striar react to Marvel’s retro‑futuristic 1960s reboot from director Matt Shakman, featuring Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic (Pedro Pascal – The Mandalorian, The Last of Us), Sue Storm/Invisible Woman (Vanessa Kirby – The Crown, Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation), Johnny Storm/Human Torch (Joseph Quinn – Stranger Things, Gladiator II), Ben Grimm/The Thing (Ebon Moss‑Bachrach – The Bear, The Punisher), cosmic villains Galactus (Ralph Ineson – Game of Thrones) & Silver Surfer/Shalla‑Bal (Julia Garner – Ozark), plus Natasha Lyonne (as Rachel Rozman), Sarah Niles, Paul Walter Hauser & cameo robot H.E.R.B.I.E. We also look ahead to Avengers: Doomsday & Avengers: Secret Wars, and Marvel’s Phase 6 push. Early reviews call it “genre‑defining,” blending family drama, cosmic threat, Easter eggs like Yancy Street & Fantasticar, and cut scenes (sorry John Malkovich!). #FantasticFour #Marvel #FantasticFourFirstSteps #MCU #PedroPascal #VanessaKirby #JosephQuinn #EbonMossBachrach #Galactus #SilverSurfer #AvengersDoomsday #AvengersSecretWars #MarvelReaction #MovieReview #RetroFuturistic #review #MovieReaction Superman Review: https://youtu.be/-aUlCeFmi7A Superman Spoiler Review: https://youtu.be/R2sBK7nvLqg Thunderbolts Reaction: https://youtu.be/WcYxq-uuu9U Captain America Brave New World Reaction: https://youtu.be/mueDPaEP4kM 0:00 Fantastic Four First Steps Review 01:05 Thoughts Before Going In 02:06 Johnny Storm 02:58 Reed Richards 03:36 Human Torch & Mr Fantastic 05:43 Sue Storm (Vanessa Kirby) 07:36 The Thing (Ebon Moss-Bachrach ) 09:08 Galactus & Silver Surfer 12:08 HUEL 14:14 Visual Effects 15:56 Story 17:45 additional Criticisms 19:45 Superman Vs Fantastic Four 22:40 one more critique 23:34 Music (Michael Giacchino) 24:23 Post-Credits Scene (Non Spoiler) 25:23 Fantastic Four Review Follow Roxy Striar: Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheWhirlGirls Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/roxystriar/?hl=en Twitter: https://twitter.com/roxystriar Follow TheReelRejects On The Socials: IG: https://www.instagram.com/reelrejects/ TT: https://www.tiktok.com/@thereelrejects?lang=en TWITTER: https://twitter.com/thereelrejects FB: https://www.facebook.com/TheReelRejects/ Follow GREG On INSTAGRAM & TWITTER: INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/thegregalba/ TWITTER: https://twitter.com/thegregalba Intense Suspense by Audionautix is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ RR Clips & Shorts Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@ReelRejectsClips Music Used In Ad: Hat the Jazz by Twin Musicom is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Head Editor: https://www.instagram.com/praperhq/?hl=en Music In Video: Airport Lounge - Disco Ultralounge by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Follow & Listen to Us Wherever You Get Your Podcasts!! - Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3XHMwbveiznxSOGxN9XT0M - Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5tZWdhcGhvbmUuZm0vc3Rhci13YXJzLXRhbGs - Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-reel-rejects-tv-movie-recaps/id1616339990 - Audible: https://www.audible.com/pd/The-Apocalypse-Podcast/B08JJP58FG PLAYLISTS: Movie Reviews: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw-comtadVs8b9JsZEWHUyr8

It's so cool seeing every review point out a different character as their stand out! Glad to hear you guys dug it and that we finally got a good adaptation of this group

This is probably the best non-spoiler review Reel Rejects has done. Fair and balanced, no bias or prejudiced slant. Kudos.

Please always do these straight out of the movie theatre reactions. They really come across really honest and authentic, and you never reveal too much, which is perfect!

And this teaches us that we shouldn't judge a project without seeing it. Coy learned it too. That said, i think his doubts seem to me to come more from Marvel than from the movie, while Roxy was focused on the enormous marketing of Superman (that marketing is very rare to see, even for a blockbuster), the character that comes to revive DC.

It seems the characters' personalities connect properly, according to your review. Looking forward to it on Sunday.

As someone who's been editing for 22 years in film, TV and just about everything - I have to say this was the best edited Marvel film I've seen and it (predictably) isn't getting enough credit for that.
