      What to know

      Critics Consensus

      Superhero Movie is not the worst of the spoof genre, but relies on tired gags and lame pop culture references all the same. Read critic reviews

        This movie was funny...Scary movie writen all over it. You don't know what you get when you watch a movie that says "From 2 of the 5 writers of Scary Movie"....It could be crap. It could be good...It was good this time. Not good like good...but...funny...

        Unattractive but entertaining, with some very common things in these "movie parody," but somewhat acceptable.

        Yes, this is not a Seltzer and Friedberg film, so it's not as bad as "Epic Movie" or "Meet the Spartans". But it's still pretty bad.

        Superhero Movie was not a good film, let me just clear that right now. But compared to other spoof films such as Epic Movie or Disaster Movie, its much better. I laughed at many points in the film because of the superhero jokes and just pure idiotic jokes. I enjoyed the depiction of Stephen Hawking as a sick minded creep. Drake Bell and Leslie Nielson were good choices, but the rest of the cast was just pathetic. But the film is overall just another dumb spoof film that should've never been made.
