4.0 out of 5 stars One of the better spoofs, 23 Jul 2008
By D. Jackson "DJ" (UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   

Clearly better than its competitor at the time (Meet The Spartans), Superhero Movie, mainly spoofing the first Spiderman movie, pulls off some pretty good gags. It had us all laughing more than a few times.

Even though this isn't a perticularly 'good' comedy, I'm giving it 4 stars because it's a top quality spoof compared to Date Movie, Epic Movie and Meet The Spartans.

4.0 out of 5 stars Amusing, 3 Dec 2008
By chuckles "barnie884" (Netherlands) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
I used to be a huge fan of spoof movies, however there have been so many bad ones recently was unsure as whether to buy this or not, especially after the dreadful Meet the Spartans and Epic movie. This one however was much better than many of the others. The jokes are quick and to the point, they dont drag them out, and with the king of spoofs Leslie Nielsen helping, it just manages to pull it off. This film is basically a Spiderman spoof with little cross references to others, and as I have watched most Superhero movies I think I managed to spot all the jokes, some were actually quite subtle. Real rating probably 3.5 but raised it to 4 stars when I compare it to other recent efforts.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nielson Brings Back that Naked Gun Feeling, 11 Oct 2008
I was debating whether or not to see this film when it came out, and rottentomatoes hadn't exactly promoted the film. However, the fact that Leslie Nielson and David Zucker induced me to pay the admission fee, and I thoroughly enjoyed the movie. I haven't laughed so much, so loudly, in a cinema since Ron Burgundy and his crew fed me laughing gas.

The quality of the visual gags reminded me of the excellent Naked Gun series and Airplane, and it was greatly satisfying to feel the same emotions this time around, albeit at points lacking the class of the aforementioned epics. Zucker really turned the screw round here, and I haven't, again since Anchorman, left the cinema convinced that I needed to buy the dvd to watch again the many classic moments.

Unlike the last few years that has featured many pathetic attempts of comedies, this was a welcome change. Don't listen to reviewers who gave this less than 3 stars, the whole cinema were in choruses of sniggering, and wails of uncontrollable laughter. If you liked Naked Gun, Airplane etc, then this is one of the best and is now definitely in the top ten of my all time comedies. Buy it!
