This sequel-prequel hybrid would attempt to delve into the origin of Silver Surfer, but it went as a huge disappointment. Praise for visual effects on the titular character is the only thing worthwhile because the lousy storyline and uninspired performance disappointed fans. Additionally, the movie also wasted what could have been the potential Galactus, degrading the very villainous entity to a simple cloud. A dull humor coupled with no stake at all in Rise of the Silver Surfer added another missed chance for Marvel's First Family.
