\n\tAs summer at the box office heats up, MCU<\/a> fans are sharing their first reactions<\/a> to The Fantastic Four: First Steps<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\tFollowing first screenings for the debut entry in Marvel Studios<\/a>\u2018 Phase 6, which hits theaters July 24, audiences have praised the visual artistry, impeccable writing and performances from Pedro Pascal<\/a>, Vanessa Kirby<\/a>, Joseph Quinn<\/a>, Ebon Moss-Bachrach and Julia Garner.<\/p>\n

\n\tOn X, one fan called it \u201cQuite possibly the best Marvel Studios film<\/a> ever released. Absolutely loaded with talent and standout performances from Vanessa Kirby and Joseph Quinn. If you thought the MCU died with Endgame, think again. Thoughtfully crafted and easily a genre-defining classic.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tSeveral fans praised the VFX of the movie, including the design of Julia Garner<\/a>\u2018s Galactus. \u201c#FantasticFour First Steps is visually one of the best things Marvel has ever made. Parts feel like Interstellar & demand IMAX,\u201d wrote<\/a> another fan. \u201cGalactus is awesome. Silver Surfer looks really, really good. VFX were often immaculate. Cosmically and on Earth, Matt Shakman<\/a> dropped a visual feast.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tOthers also noted their appreciation for the film\u2019s social and political commentary. \u201c#FantasticFour is a triumph. A pitch-perfect script backed by great performances \u2014 particularly from Pedro Pascal \u2014 turns what could be a simple superhero movie into a sharp commentary on our society that makes its nuance palatable for those that may not take it at face value,\u201d one person posted<\/a>.<\/p>\n
