Dumb script and flat jokes made this another SNL misfire.

Contrasting the erotic with the disgusting is usually provocative and can be funny, but not in this underdog comedy. May 19, 2008 | Full Review…

A stick-figure Rembrandt that provides neither the quick surreal poke of a TV satire nor the full lustre of an actual movie. Mar 22, 2002 | Rating: 0.5/4 | Full Review…

Watching Molly Shannon make out with a tree is amusing, but not even someone of her comic endurance can drag out that joke for the entire doddering length of Superstar. Jan 1, 2000

Mary Katherine Gallagher takes a little getting used to for the unwitting viewer. She grows on you, though, and, despite yourself, you get to like her quirky ways. Apr 9, 2005 | Rating: B- | Full Review…

Much more enjoyable than the sketches on which it is based, and Shannon's performance is brimming with fun and energy. Feb 8, 2003 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

I've seen this sketch numerous times on SNL -- it isn't funny at five minutes, at 90 minutes it's unbearable. Dec 8, 2002 | Rating: 1/5 | Full Review…

Not the best SNL based film, but if you're a Molly Shannon fan, it's a must see movie. She gives her all in this role, and she is a great comedienne.

Funny but a bad movie, very stupid
So awful! There are no words. Expected better from Will Ferrell especially.
This god awful, and almost completely unfunny comedy is surrounded by so much stupidity that it is very hard to enjoy. I really wanted to punch my TV during my viewing of this film, but I guess ever comedy can't be good. This is one of the worst attempts to make a saturday night live shit come to life. If the filmmakers thought this was going to be funny, then they really have no clue about what makes a good film. It is far too stupid to take seriously as a comedy. Whatever they were trying to do to make the audience laugh, they failed miserably!
