4 out of 5 stars Amusing   December 3, 2008
  3 out of 3 found this review helpful

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 out of 5 stars Nielson Brings Back that Naked Gun Feeling   October 11, 2008
  4 out of 4 found this review helpful

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.br /br /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. br /br /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!


5 out of 5 stars Superhero Movie   August 5, 2008

Fortget all the bad reviews. this is an absolute cracker. It makes you laugh all the way through plus it has Drake Bell and the king of spoofs Leslie Neilson in it as well, which is a bonus. Splash out and buy this DVD. You will not be dissapointed.


4 out of 5 stars One of the better spoofs   July 23, 2008
  11 out of 14 found this review helpful

br /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.br /br /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.


2 out of 5 stars as bad as I imagined it would be   July 14, 2008
  0 out of 1 found this review helpful

This collection of movies that have been released over the past few years where bad actors try to take the mickey out of other films very rarely works. A few have been funny, but a lot haven't. Meet the Spartan's was just about bearable but this just bordered on agonisingly bad. The acting was awful, the plot (unsurprisingly) was pretty non exsistant and the whole thing seemed to drag and drag for ages (although the actual length of the film is under an hour and a half). The only good thing about the film, and reason I am nt giving it one star is the presense of Leslie Nielson, for he can still make everything he does funny, but he still wasnt funny enough to save the poor excuse for this movie.
