JinRoz For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!

SpunkySelfTwitter It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Ella-May O'Brien Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

mesterzakarya They tried to be fun, but not The film tries to laugh at the viewer, but the scenes are comedy-free The film is successful in ridiculing the superhero movie gaps, but failed to laugh at the viewer with scenes. The rating of this movie is quite appropriate. The short film time is also good and bad It's good to get the viewer far into hollow scenes. It is bad for it to be a kind of low-cost business Nearly 20 minutes from it, it relates to the titles and post scenes.

one-nine-eighty Written and directed by Craig Mazin this is a spoof movie much like Scary Movie, Epic Movie, Meet the Spartans, etc. The film follows the Spiderman tried and tested formula. As an audience we follow Rick Ryker who has been left an orphan to be raised by his aunt and uncle. On a school field trip he is bitten by a mutated dragonfly which bestows on him great powers. As you know by now, with great powers comes great yada yada blah blah. Rick becomes a superhero and tries to save the day from Lou Landers, a.k.a. Hourglass, his evil nemesis while desperately trying to win the affection of his attractive neighbour. Despite having David Zucker and Lesley Nielson attached to this film it was nowhere near the league of the "Airplane!" or "Naked Gun" movies which was a sad shame. More dumb than fun this film tries to use slapstick and witty humour throughout but falls short by a long way, in fact a lot of the film is very predictable and there for slightly boring too. There are a lot of cultural references and nods to other superhero films but not in a clever way at all so it makes the film feel like it's a desperate sibling nagging for attention just to justify it. If you haven't guessed by now I didn't really enjoy this; I can deal with the crass fart jokes and I can deal with the whiny stereotypical characters throughout. What upset me the most was the wasted opportunity. With so many superhero movies out there now this film could have been soo much more but as a satirical poke at them it falls flat on its toothless face. Sorry, I can only give this 3 out of 10 because I'd have been happy to turn it off or fall asleep instead. I can't say I'd recommend this, and I definitely won't be rushing to watch this again.

lolidunno16 Whilst this film probably won't appeal to adults, it certainly will appeal to 12-13 year olds. (but this film is NOT for small kids). I myself was 12 when I first saw this film and I was laughing endlessly from start to finish. Obviously nowadays the sex jokes and toilet humour isn't so funny any more. This film is almost ALL sex and toilet humour. And despite the stigmas, some people just happen to like this kind of thing! If you happen to be one of those people, then GO WATCH THIS MOVIE NOW. If you don't like toilet humour, just don't even bother. Stay far away from this film.I disagree on this movie's IMDb rating. I think even though I've matured and don't find toilet humour that funny any more, it's still good for what it is. This isn't a fantastic movie, but it's a good one that will lift your spirits (unless you've just lost a parent).

Wizard-8 It was perhaps inevitable that with the popularity of superhero movies in the past few years, a comedy spoofing the superhero genre would be made. Oddly, while writer/director Craig Mazin had a number of superhero movies to get inspiration from, for the most part his story is simply a comic look at the first "Spider Man" movie. Mazin does execute the movie with a good swift pace (there's seldom a lull), and with the relentless bombardment of gags, it is inevitable that at least a few are funny. While there are some genuine laughs here, for the most part I didn't laugh that much. There are too many scenes of people being hit and knocked about, which gets tiresome pretty fast. A lot of gags also feel like they were dreamed up and written down before a lot of thought was given to them - thought that would have determined that they weren't funny gags. Also, the amount of scatological gags suggests that Mazin was pretty desperate and couldn't think of more gags concerning superheroes. Not the worst spoof movie that's been made, but it is a big disappointment.
