Fantastic Four: First Steps

With superhero movies facing growing skepticism, this summer could mark a turning point. Major contenders—like Superman, Thunderbolts⁎, and Fantastic Four—are all fighting for critical and commercial dominance. But who will rise above the noise?

Scoring Method:

Each film will receive a Superhero Success Score (SSS) calculated as:

SSS = (Rotten Tomatoes Critic Score × 0.5) + (Box Office % of Budget × 0.5)

  • RT Score: Critics’ Tomatometer as of September 15, 2025

  • Box Office % of Budget: (Worldwide Gross ÷ Production Budget) × 100
    (e.g., a movie with an 85% critic score and a 3× return on budget gets an SSS of 192.5)

Resolution Criteria:

The movie with the highest SSS as of October 1, 2025, will be the winner. Data will be sourced from Box Office Mojo and Rotten Tomatoes.
