Before we talk about the film itself lets talk about blu-ray. Blu ray discs can hold up to around 50gb which is a huge improvement from the standard dvd which can hold around 5 at the max. Blu rays work by using an incredibly thin laser to read the disc therefore more information can be stored on the disc resulting in a much higher picture and sound quality. Blu ray dvds will only work on a blu-ray dvd player or PS3 which is connected up to a HDTV to give it's maximum quality.

The movie itself. Acting quality is great throughout the movie with no edgey parts. The actors are quite well-known and don't let the movie down. The special effects also do not do any harm to the movie being quite a new movie the CG in this film is incredibly good and helps maintain the reality of this movie.

However although the acting and graphics are good the storyline is a bit scetchy. It takes almost half the movie for the action to begin which I believe would have been a grave mistake if this was the only Fanasitc Four film. However now that there is going to be the next movie the Silver Surfer the first movie makes a bit more sense. But still looking at only this movie it is a bit cheesey.

I myself thought the storyline was lame and didn't like it. I enjoyed watching the movie the first time however I would not watch it again therefore I believe there is no reason why I would buy this dvd therefore I think this is a movie you should rent or wait until it comes out on tv.
