10 Worst Marvel Superhero Movies Ever
4. Fant4stic
It isn't often you see a director openly say how much he hates his own movie. It's even more rare for them to do it right before the movie is set to premiere worldwide. But that is exactly what happened with Josh Trank's Fantastic Four.
Frustrated at studio interference with his vision, the Chronicle director tweeted out his disappointments hours before the movie was supposed to hit theaters, effectively sending him into a downward professional spiral.
While we'll probably never know what the original plan was, what we got was dark, dreary, uninteresting, and stupid. The Fantastic Four and Doctor Doom got their powers from getting drunk and messing around in an alternate universe, it constantly feels like a buildup to something that never comes, and the numerous reshoots were plain as day thanks to the Invisible Woman needing to wear an obviously fake wig in certain scenes due to her changing her hair for another role.
There was just a layer of incompetence throughout the entire thing, and the more you hear about the production and the director's mental state at the time, the more it makes sense.
