    Mystery Men (1999)

    Anyone remember or seen this movie?



    I caught it in theaters back in the day, and recently revisited it with my oldest via Netflix and looking back on it, it's amazing how sucha cheesy bad flick like this even went to theaters in the first place. But I think what amuses me most are how many stars and random ass cameos it has. The stars/comedians I understand, but some of the cameos just seemed really random, like Doug Jones, Dane Cook, CeeLo Green and Michael Bay--seriously WTF is Michael Bay doing there? But as bad and cheesy as it is, it had its moments. A guilty pleasure of sorts, I guess

    I was going to watch this again today, but my netflix was fucking up.. weird that you posted about it..

    I remember when this first came out they were talking about having a sequel featuring The Flaming Carrot, which was from the comics that Mystery Men was based on... Sad that it never happened.. would've been cool to see the Flaming Carrot and his bologna cannon on the big screen..

    I remember thinking this looked so great. Finally saw it, and it was a disappointment.

    Funniest gags were with Greg Kinnear's character. Having Corporate Sponsors like racecar drivers, and playing with the whole clark kent glasses on/off thing.

    yeah, I agree. yeah sure it's cheesy at times, but it had it's moments and it was fun to watch. I don't think it's any great ciinematic feat by any means, but I do think it's underrated and gets more hate than it really deserves.

    Makes sense the flick never got that sequel since I believe it didn't do very well at the box office. Either way, despite how bad the flick was, it had a lot of interesting ideas

    wonder how this movie would have been received in todays world of super hero fandom. I need to give this another watch. Haven't seen it since it came out.
