Mystery Men (1999) - 36.5 Points
Chuckles 47, Laughs 10, Belly Laughs 1
Notes: This is one of my cousin Jon's favorite movies and I can see why. I love the premise of super heroes who have powers that just aren't that super (fluctuance,  the ability to throw forks, using a shovel) to try and fight crime. I will say that Janeane Garofalo's dad's skull in a bowling ball is pretty cool. This is a classic "chuckler." There is comedy enough to provide chuckles throughout the film but it wasn't a huge laugh or big laugh movie for me despite an all star lineup including Ben Stiller, Jeaneane Garofalo, Paul Ruebens, Hank Azaria, Greg Kinnear and William H. Macy. There seems to be a theme - when I have to pay extra to purchase a movie, it either doesn't make it on the list or doesn't score enough points to stay on the list, which kinda sucks. Would I watch it again? No.    ​​
