The city’s fate rests in the hands of seven loser superhero wannabes: the spoon-flinging Blue Rajah, the shovel-wielding Shoveler, the possessed bowling ball-hurling Bowler, the flatulent Spleen, the only-when-nobody’s-looking Invisible Boy, the mysterious Sphinx, and the perpetually-angry Mr. Furious.
Plot: When Champion City’s hero Captain Amazing is kidnapped by the recently paroled supervillain Casanova Frankenstein, a trio of average, everyday superheroes — Mr. Furious, the Shoveler and the Blue Raja — assemble a new super team to save him.

A Hoot!
Forget depth of meaning, leave your logic at the door, and have a great time with this maniacally funny, totally absurdist, ultra-campy live-action “cartoon”. MYSTERY MEN is a send-up of every superhero flick you’ve ever seen, but its unlikely super-wannabes are so interesting, varied, and well-cast that they are memorable characters in their own right. Dark humor, downright silliness, bona fide action, and even a touching moment or two, combine to make this comic fantasy about lovable losers a true winner. The comedic talents of the actors playing the Mystery Men — including one Mystery Woman — are a perfect foil for Wes Studi as what can only be described as a bargain-basement Yoda, and Geoffrey Rush as one of the most off-the-wall (and bizarrely charming) villains ever to walk off the pages of a Dark Horse comic book and onto the big screen. Get ready to laugh, cheer, and say “huh?” more than once…. enjoy!
Well written and well acted, though the genre has been done to death in subsequent years.
The rating I’m giving may seem unreasonably high, but I have to give “Mystery Men” a lot of credit for some hilarious running gags, most of which go completely unnoticed on first viewing (and which, I understand, were largely improvised). It seems as if every time I watch it, I see something I missed before.“Mystery Men” is not just very funny, it is consistently funny throughout. Even better, most of it is relatively clean humour (not spotless, though), at least compared to some of the jokes you’ll find in the typical modern comedy.
That said, the superhero-parody genre has been more-or-less mined out by now, so perhaps “Mystery Men” will not age well. I am a little sick of these types of movies myself, but I do not hold it against “Mystery Men”, which I liked when I first saw it and still do.
