Spoiler-free synopsis
Reed Richards, Sue Storm, Johnny Storm and Ben Grimm are a family of explorers with extraordinary abilities. In a retrofuturistic world, a threat of cosmic proportions tests their ingenuity and their bonds. Their greatest challenge is to protect the planet without losing what keeps them together.
Family life matters as much as the powers: Reed approaches problems through science, while each member brings a different view of the world. The retrofuturistic aesthetic gives their laboratories, streets and adventures a distinctive character. Faced with the scale of the threat, the film emphasises cooperation and the bond holding the team together.
