Super Hero The Movie
The Sinopsis
The problem with Epic Movie and Meet the Spartans (if you don’t count the sexism, homophobia and lack of funny jokes) is that they try to make fun of everything. Mazin does a far better job of staying focused. Aside from a Tom Cruise YouTube gag, Mazin aims almost exclusively for making fun of Spider-Man and, to a lesser extent, Batman, X-Men and Fantastic Four. Those are pretty easy targets, but the cast sell the material, and it’s fun watching Bell, as nerd-turned-superhero Rick Riker, find new variations on his mugging double-take.
After being bitten by a genetically altered dragonfly, high school loser Rick Riker develop superhuman abilities like incredible strength and armored skin. Rick decides to use his new powers for good and becomes a costumed crime fighter known as “The Dragonfly.” However, standing in the way of his destiny is the villainous Lou Landers. After an experiment gone wrong, Lou develops the power to steal a person’s life force and in a dastardly quest for immortality becomes the supervillain, “The Hourglass.” With unimaginable strength, unbelievable speed and deeply uncomfortable tights, will the Dragonfly be able to stop the sands of The Hourglass and save the world? More importantly, will we stop laughing long enough to notice?
