100 Words or Less: Mystery Men (1999)

Ben Stiller is the same in this movie as he is in every movie.

Superpowers here include super-farts, a magic bowling ball, turning invisible (when no one is looking) throwing silverware, and being able to “shovel well.”

I knew not to expect much action from a superhero film starring Stiller, Hank Azaria, and William H. Macy, but I thought it would at least be funny. But it isn’t. It either takes itself too seriously, or not seriously enough, I’m not sure.

I don’t care for the heroes, or the villain (Geoffrey Rush). I don’t care about any of them.
