Brad P Imbued with the anything goes gorilla filmmaking spirit of Troma and a deep love for comic books, writer James Gunn garnered a fair amount of attention for this script in the late nineties and deservedly so. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Drier and more absurd than Mystery Men, this is a true classic of superhero parody. Everyone in the cast delivers a top notch performance and the superhero world they live in, implied by their offhand comments, is sublimely faithful to the genre. A very human film about flawed but likable characters. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Funny in places - dull in others. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Low-budget film about a low-budget superhero team. Some good ideas and a great cast, but sadly just sort of peters out. It didn't need any sort of special effects, but it did need to have some sort of resolution. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member I loved the movie. It wasn't suppose to be epic or a blockbuster, but what it did succeed at was being incredibly funny in a complete deadpan comedy way. I laughed through the entire movie at some of the outlandish situations or straight-faced comic deliveries. In my opinion it's like if Mystery Men was made by a the team that made the BBC show Black Books... Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member most of you how hate it are... well lack of a better term "average". I stumbled upon this movie late one night. I was about to masterbate, but all my socks where used up. So I ended up watching late night tv and caught the last 20 minutes and ever since I've been looking for this movie. This movie was.. no "is" awesome. It was campy behind belief. I mean the only reason I watch "Mystery Men" was to get more, but MM took it self to seriously. So the ones that gave this movie a thumbs down can go jump off a cliff or watch another seth rogen movie. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Read all reviews
