Movie #171 - Mystery Men

Title: Mystery Men

Director: Kinka Usher

Release Year: 1999

Plot Summary: A group of inept amateur superheroes must try to save the day when a supervillian threatens to destroy a major superhero and the city.

Thoughts: I think Mystery Men works because it's just sort of fun. It doesn't take itself even remotely seriously, and honestly, why should it? Also it's chock full of pithy one-liners, and anyone who knows me even a little knows that I pretty much thrive on pithy one-liners.

Recommendations: If you can appreciate the absurd, and you have even the slightest warm fuzzy feeling towards superheroes, you should get a kick out of this one.
