Review of My Super Ex-Girlfriend (2006) by Johnc. — 31 Aug 2006

This is one of those movies where the critcs start reveiewing each other's reviews and lose sight of what is actually in the movie. This is by far the funniest movie all summer, with four excellent perfomances.

Even more importantly, the movie has a consistent aesthetic that enables it to create its own world - necessary for anything involving superheroes. I find it hard to believe that there's anyone out there that didn't have a good time watching this movie.

I'm afraid this is a rare movie that is crippled by having a premise that is too obviously good. This film executes on the premise perfectly. Go see it if you can so the studios will know that audiences will pay to see elaborate comedy.
