Mystery Men

Mystery Men

1999

This comedy spoof follows a team of far-from-super heroes as they try to overcome their shortcomings and earn respect. Mr. Furious (Ben Stiller), the Shoveler (William H. Macy), the Blue Raja (Hank Azaria) and the Bowler (Janeane Garofalo) get a shot at the big time, but if they screw up, Champion City will be doomed! Mystery Men makes barbed mockery of cinematic superheroics.

This summer expect the unexpected
