If you like screwball comedies, and if you liked the "Naked Gun" and "Airplane" movies, you might like Superhero Movie.
Superhero Movie is a parody that makes fun of mostly Spiderman, as well as bits and pieces of other superhero movies like Batman (where our main character's real parents are killed), X-Men, and Fantastic 4.
The movie contains many funny moments, but also a lot of moments that are just plain stupid, stupid to the fact that they just get annoying. The film is directed by David Zucker who also worked with Jim Abrams on the Naked Gun Trilogy, both Airplane movies, Kentucky Fried Movie, and Top Secret. What I noticed recently is that Zucker has been overdoing his physical harm routines. Someone knocks into something, or someone gets hit on the head with something heavy. He does the same bit too frequently. All of a sudden it doesn't become funny anymore.
If you have seen the first Spiderman movie, then you already have the overall plot for Superhero movie. If you haven't seen X-Men, Fantastic 4, or Batman, it doesn't really matter. You will most likely get the point.
Superhero Movie is rated PG-13, and out of four stars I give it two.
