When Captain Amazing (Kinnear) is kidnapped by Casanova Frankenstein (Rush) a group of superheroes combine together to create a plan. But these aren't normal superheroes. They are individuals who are not good enough to be real superheroes. Now, the group who include such heroes as Mr. Furious (Stiller), The Shoveller (Macy) and The Blue Raja (Azaria) must put all the powers together to save everyone they know and love.
In Champion City, would be superheroes like The Shoveler, The Blue Raja and Mr. Furious can't seem to make a difference and impress either the city or its greatest superhero, Captain Amazing. However, when Captain Amazing is captured by his greatest enemy, Cassanova Frankenstein, these stumblebum heroes must join with other superhero hopefuls to save the Captain and the city.
When this movie first came out, I saw the commercials for it and I thought to myself: &quot;Now THERE&#39;S a cool movie!&quot; Unfortunately, my family is not one that sees movies regularly, so I totally missed it in theatres (DRAT!). Happily, I got a chance to see it when our local movie rental place got it. (YAY!) The instant I saw it, I turned to mush. This HAS to be THE best movie of the year… heck, of the DECADE, even!<br/><br/>All the actors were great, and I especially adored Hank Azaria as the fork-flinging, turban-wearing, British-accented Blue Raja. (you can tell, I named myself after him!) So guess what I did? I hunted up the special edition of the movie at the nearest video-selling place, and I bought it. With my own money, which is saying alot because I don&#39;t have much of my own money…<br/><br/>I really don&#39;t see how anyone could hate a movie this neat! The effects were great (and hilarious), the script was great, the casting was excellent, and the costume design deserves &quot;two-thumbs-up!&quot;<br/><br/>I&#39;m one of the few people in this world who has now dedicated all their spare time to doing anything Mystery-Men-ish. This Halloween, I&#39;m going as the Blue Raja, forks and all. The only question I have is: When&#39;s the sequel coming out???
Going in to &quot;Mystery Men&quot;, it&#39;s concept of &quot;loser superheroes&quot; is a wonderful spin on the genre. It&#39;s casting itself is perfect, with everyone playing their roles well. The super powers these people have are hilariously mundane. The design of the movie begs reference to the Schumacher &quot;Batman&quot; movies, with it&#39;s comic-inspired coloring and random statues cracking through the skyline. As a person that grew up with comics, I can see how the movies nudges the most unbelievable parts of comicdom for it&#39;s punchlines with how secret identities work and forming a super team. Also has some great hero training scenes.<br/><br/>The problem with &quot;Mystery Men&quot; is that that it doesn&#39;t deliver the laughs one expects, given the talent and overall concept. The movie definitely has it&#39;s moments, but not enough of them. It probably would&#39;ve helped if we had the origins of these heroes. We know how their powers work, alright, but how were they discovered? There are some glimpses of a few characters origins in the dialogue, but it barely touches on it.<br/><br/>Like comics, you have to suspend reality for this movie (or any movie) for it to work. If you&#39;re a fan of superhero movies or comics, I&#39;d recommend giving it a spin.
The characters have been designed to make fun of themselves, disguising the craft of writer Neil Cuthbert and director Kinka Usher in getting us to laugh at them.
The Mystery Men originated as the team name of misfit Super Heroes led by &quot;The Flaming Carrot.&quot; &quot;Flaming Carrot Comics,&quot; by Bob Burden, was originally published by Aardvark-Vanaheim, then by Renegade Press and Dark Horse Comics between 1984 and 1993. The book has since relaunched in 2005 with Image Comics.<br/><br/>From the official Mysterymen website:<br/><br/>&quot;…all you really need is a snappy costume and a cool name for the Mysterymen, the human cannon fodder of the war on crime. At their peak, they numbered about 30 (The Dirty Thirty) but it&#39;s hard to come up with an exact figure on them because of high casualty rates, the highest of any superhero team in the history of the medium.&quot;<br/><br/>Original comic book members:<br/><br/>Flaming Carrot, The Shoveler, Jackpot, Mr.Furious, Screwball, Captain Attack, Bondo Man, Jumpin&#39; Jehosaphat, Red Rover, The Strangler, The Spleen, the Metro Marauder, Hummer, Disc Man, Jumo the Magnificent, the Whisperer, Mystic Hand, Star Shark, the Zeke.<br/><br/>Members invented for the movie:<br/><br/>The Bowler, the Blue Raja, the Sphinx, Invisible Boy<br/><br/>In the comics, the Mysterymen have also teamed up with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles - twice.
