Jul 01, 2013"Mystery Men" is a fully functional superhero spoof with an above average, comedic cast and a Burton-esque view at the underbelly of a city. Ben Stiller leads the ragtag gang of misfits with "special powers" which include wielding a shovel, throwing forks, and flatulation. No one stands out, no one really has a chance to shine and you could probably think of a handful of better actors that could have knocked these parts out of the park. Instead, we're left with a completely average action-comedy with a self-aware abuse of the genre and a tongue-in-cheek demeanor. Catapulting the song "All Star" by Smash Mouth, that's about the most memorable element to come out of this film, including a quick, but humorous cameo by Dane Cook.Christopher H Super Reviewer

Jun 24, 2013This would be successful if it was made today. The innocence and playfulness would be lost and this is why the film is a lost gem. Guilty pleasure or cult film, call it what you will. This is full of talent and they all look like are having fun. The film is a weird mix of humour and dark humour, but I honestly feel time has been very kind to this film. The film came out and was ahead of its time, much like other similar themed comic book style storylines over the years. If you have the chance, I highly recommend having another viewing of this film. 13/08/2019Brendan N Super Reviewer

Jun 17, 2013Its like 30 minutes too long and I think one or two re-writes of the script would have made a world of improvement but the film is still a funny, effective spoof of the superhero genre. I love the cast and the fact that the visual design is somewhere between "Blade Runner" and Schumacher's Batman films.Alec B Super Reviewer
