Another positive reaction came from Brandon Davis, who states that The Fantastic Four: First Steps is a visually stunning feat and should be watched in IMAX. He complimented the VFX work done on both The Silver Surfer and Galactus, and had an overall positive reaction to The Fantastic Four: First Steps’ visual brilliance.

[Fantastic Four] isn't just fantastic: it's a triumph. Shakman's all-time direction & masterful score create a genre-defining retro-futuristic film, leading to a better, brighter & optimistic MCU. The 4 leads are everything we needed. Joseph Quinn's casting is generational.

Initial reviews for The Fantastic Four: First Steps are in and singing high praises for Marvel’s newest film. The movie stars Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, and Joseph Quinn as the heroic quartet, with British actor Ralph Ineson as the villain Galactus and Julia Garner as the Silver Surfer.
