Het lukt The Shoveler, The Blue Raja en Mr. Furious, 3 superhelden uit Champion City, maar niet om de inwoners van de stad onder de indruk te krijgen, om van de grootste superheld, Captain Amazing, maar niet te spreken. Wanneer deze echter door zijn grootste vijand, Cassanova Frankenstein, ontvoerd wordt, moeten de 3 superhelden met andere helden samenwerken om de Captain en de stad te redden. (United International Pictures)

Mystery Men is an average, perhaps even below-average superhero movie with a fairly predictable storyline and a narrative featuring a team of lesser superheroes with unimpressive powers ("I shovel well..."). After a crazy villain takes out a famous and fearless superhero, they save the city. So why award this movie more than three stars? Because when I once watched this movie at a friend's house, we got pretty stoned, and I have to say, I do not think I have ever seen a more entertaining spectacle. You laugh at the crap; you laugh at the main protagonists, you laugh at the crazy jokes, you laugh at the dialogues ("I knew you'd know I'd know you knew" try saying that ten times in a row) and you even laugh at the father's skull inserted inside a bowling ball. So even now, years later, when I am not stoned anymore, I still get to have a pretty good time watching this movie. 7.5/10.
