Quite good! Really
good pacing, plenty of complex human relationships and credible
reactions. One of my favorite aspects of the first Fantastic Four
movie was the bickering between the team members, it “rang true”
to the characters as they were presented in the comics. That aspect
rings true again here. Awesome ending! Great way to finish off the
movie!

Update:
Someone asked me how Amazing
Spider-man 2 (Andrew Garfield this year) compares to Spider-man
(Tobey Maguire in 2002). I thought it was like comparing Superman
II (Christopher Reeve in 1980) with Man
of Steel (Henry Cavill in 2013) where, in both cases, the title
character meets General Zod and company. In both cases, the two sets
of movies are made with such different sensibilities and the pairs of
lead characters are so unalike that the two sets of movies aren't
really comparable.
Probably the biggest similarity between
the Cavill Superman and the Garfield Spider-man where both of them
dramatically contrast with their earlier versions was in the immense
amount of property destruction that the later versions engage in. In
both cases, Reeve and Maguire are sunnier, more cheerful characters
than their later versions are.
