Editor’s note: Our short take on The Fantastic 4: First Steps (2025): A confident blend of Science Fiction, Adventure, focused more on tone than spectacle. With Matt Shakman at the helm, the film feels purposeful and well-paced. Performances (especially Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Ebon Moss-Bachrach) give the story human stakes. The 1h 55m runtime suits the material; scenes land without dragging. A respectable mid-tier entry with a couple of memorable beats. Its tagline — “Welcome to the family.” — actually reflects the film’s intent. Put it on your list—especially if you’re after mood and texture.
