This is the plot of the Ultimate Fantastic Four, the version of the characters this movie is primarily influenced by...
Here is the approximate plot of the movie as indicated by footage and news...
Here's what this movie has in common with the source material:
- The main characters share similiar Young Adult ages. In the movie they're in their early twenties in the comic they were in their late teens.
- The movie features child prodigy Reed Richards inventing his Teleportation prototype.
- Reed is a timid young boy who forms a friendship with tough kid Ben Grimm
- The Baxter Institute Think-Tank
- Reed is recruited into the Baxter Institute.
- "Moleman" works at the Baxter Institute
- Victor is a programmer at the Baxter institute
- Reed Richards Meets Sue Storm, Johnny Storm & Victor for the first time at the Baxter Institute
- Sue Storm is a Scientist and Johnny a cocky character
- Reed develops the first successful inter-dimensional transportation device
- The Four and Victor travel to The Negative-Zone and gain superhuman abilities via an accident
- Victor has his skin turned to a metallic substance and he gains enhanced strength and durability powers.
- Victor becomes an enemy of the four who become a team.
- The Military have a presence at the Baxter Institute and around the Four.
Here's the differences the movie has from the source material:
- The Four wear black containments suits instead of blue costumes.
- Victor doesn't mutate to have Goat legs after the accident. In the movie he has some form or energy-based powers which his comic counterpart doesn't.
- Name differences: Victor is named Victor Domaschev instead of Victor Van Damme, "MoleMan" is named Harvey Elder instead of Dr Arthur Molekevic
- Sue Storm is Adopted instead of being the biological daughter of Franklin Storm
- Franklin Storm and Johnny Storm are not Caucasian
- Reed is recruited by Franklin Storm and not Willie Lumpkin
- Reed Richards doesnt look to be recruited into the Baxter Institute as a Child but as a young Adult.
- Victor may not be responsible for the accident by changing co-ordinates (unknown at present)

*Comparison of The Main Characters:
Reeds appearance, powers, intellect and origin matches, except for his age when recruited into the Baxter Institute.
Sue Storms field of vocation, sibling relationship, appearance and powers match, her origin is altered in that she is adopted.
Johnny Storms cocky characterisation, sibling relationship, powers and origin matches, his race is African-American instead of Caucasian
Ben Grimms friendship with Reed, origin and powers match, his appearance is slightly smaller in stature than his comic counterpart, as The Thing he doesn't use clothing unlike the comic counterpart
Victor Van Dammes appearance & origin match, As Dr Doom his appearance matches except for the goat legs, he also has a different surname & additional powers.
Summary - Dr Doom is the most different from his comic counterpart. Reed & Johnny match their comic counterparts the most of the four.

There he meets Professor Storm, who leads the project, and his children, bioengineer Susan Storm and her younger brother Johnny. Reed also becomes the rival of Victor Van Damme, a fellow student. When Reed becomes 21, he plans to teleport an apple into a parallel universe (the "N-Zone"), but Van Damme claims Reed's calculations are wrong and changes the setup at the last minute. The five students get teleported through the N-Zone, and when they rematerialize, they return heavily mutated.

There he meets Franklins Storms children, Susan Storm and her younger brother Johnny as well as fellow scientist Victor Domaschev. The five work to develop a teleportation transport device coined the quantum gate and explore this alternate dimension, however an accident occurs which mutates them all giving them powerful but unstable abilities.

- CONCLUSION -
Plenty of comic accurate elements and a number of in-accurate elements.
The level of importance these elements hold for some are of course up to individual opinion, for instance some may be glad that something is in-accurate like Dooms legs and others may be disappointed that something is in-accurate such as Reeds age when recruited into the Baxter institute.
_____
Note: I entered everything I could think of, I may have missed some and if so I apologise.
