Should You Give Mystery Men a Second Chance?
- 8 years ago
Mystery Men is a hilarious superhero movie that takes a cynical look at the superhero genre, but it was a theatrical flop. So is it as bad as you the box office numbers suggest?
First (and only) time film director brought together a powerhouse comedic cast to create a movie that lampooned superheroes while sending the message that anybody can be super at something. Even with stars like Ben Stiller, Hank Azaria, William H. Macy, Greg Kinnear, Geoffrey Rush, the movie never really seemed to hit right with audiences, but did it get a bad rap? The Cinefix team is going to try to figure out if Mystery Men is worth watching so you know if you should give it a second chance.
Have you seen Mystery Men? What do you think of it? Have we convinced you to give the movie a second chance? What movies do you think got a bad rap and deserve another look?

There are a lot of reasons we won’t go see a movie or that we’ll refuse to re-watch it. Sometimes we skip movies because of bad reviews, sometimes we have bad memories of them from our childhood, and sometimes we just assume we won’t like it. Whatever the reason may be there are some movies that are worth giving a second chance to and we’re going to tell you why. Welcome to Second Chances!
