Okay, it's no classic comedy, but it did make me laugh. The cast is good, it has a funny premise. I enjoyed it. Cleverly written at times.

Had a couple of genuinely funny gags but a lot of tasteless ones. Could have deviated from the Spiderman storyline just a little bit... Pretty forgettable all up.

Not nearly as bad as I expected. Cinematically, it's horrid. Satirically, it's uninspired. Most of the jokes worked on some level, even if it was immaturity, and only a few gags were terrible.

Could Do Worse
Superhero Movie may still have a lot of the 2000’s spoof movie clichés, But at least it’s not unbearable.

Scattershot satire is only good until the middle of the movie. Better than Epic Movie, though.… Expand

It was okay, its certainly better than 'Meet the Spartans' which is not saying much but still this spoof-movie scores a few laughs.

In an age of atrocious parodies, Superhero Movie is almost like a sigh of relief, no it wasn't necessarily a good parody film, but it was a lot funnier than the majority of them being made these years.

For a parody spoof movie this one worked rather well. With brilliant cameo roles from Dr Steven Hawkins who played himself for laughs.
