Rating: 6/10 --
It is good that the film has charm, for after a certain point it doesn't necessarily have anything else.

...It's clever....With expert and well-matched comic actors such as Stiller, Macy and Garofalo on the team, MYSTERY MEN has no trouble creating a consistent flow of amusement...
Los Angeles Times
...MYSTERY MEN succeeds where others have failed thanks to inventive ideas and a quality, rib-stroking cast. Stiller, Macy and Garofalo all turn in pitch-perfect performances...
Total Film
Mystery Men is like its hapless heroes. It's a wannabe that has the best intentions -- including a pronounced anti-gun stance -- but none of the knack it takes to save the day, or itself.
Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Rating: 3/5 --
Witty comic-book story is edgy, with lots of potty humor.

Product Description:
When Captain Amazing, chief superhero of Champion City, is kidnapped by insane supervillain Casanova Frankenstein, who will save the city and ensure that justice is served' Enter the Mystery Men: Mr. Furious, The Bowler, The Blue Raja, The Shoveler, The Spleen, The Sphinx, and the Invisible Boy- a group of misfits in possession of superpowers...sort of. Watch the mayhem ensue, as this wacky team goes up against Frankenstein and his mad henchmen. This adaptation of the popular Dark Horse comic strikes a weird comic tone which is heightened by great production design and fun performances by all involved. This is the first feature from director Usher, who previously directed commercials ("Got Milk'").
