November 14, 2011This might be the most disappointing movie I've ever seen. I was very very very excited to see it. I love superheroes and I love the cast. But this film was simply terrible. It was beyond cheesy and just terribly written all around. How Ray Griggs got the people he did to agree t... read more

March 13, 2010While it did have its funny moments, the cast was extraordinarily weak, and some of the jokes made me shake my head. I understand that I'm not supposed to take this movie seriously, but it so shamelessly stole from other movies that almost every single scene was comprised of noth... read more

December 5, 2009Well done Superhero parody staring the likes of Captain Awesome, Ted from Scrubs and Danielle Harris, the chick so hot it drove Jonathan Brandis to commit suicide. Ouch, sorry bro. That's funny.

July 15, 2009This was one of those screwball camp B movie comedies (like airplane) . I did enjoy it and think it would be a great flick to rent and just have some good laughs . Also it was a clean comedy and you don't see that in movies much anymore . So watch with the kids if you want

Featuring the production values of a commercial for a local used-car dealership in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, Super Capers is a pathetic grab bag of spoofs. Full Review

Lael Loewenstein, Variety
A bizarrely misguided attempt to revive -- and spoof -- the classic B-movie, Super Capers is the kind of experience that makes you want your 93 minutes back. Full Review

Nathan Lee, New York Times
Intended as a campy riff on comic-book antics, Super Capers is instead a monumental negative achievement: a super catastrophe. Full Review

Michael Rechtshaffen, Hollywood Reporter
This first feature by Ray Griggs wears its Mad Magazine influences like a badge of honor but fails to round up enough laughs to save the day.

Slower than a glacier at the South Pole. More powerful than the strongest insomnia cure. Able to empty theaters with a single frame. It's a turkey! It's a Hindenburg! It's Super Capers! Full Review

Frank Ochieng, Movie Eye
[A] woefully toothless send-up of superhero silliness. Indeed, Super Capers is in need of its own creative rescuing.

Avi Offer, NYC Movie Guru
Even if you manage to suspend your disbelief and to check your brain at the door, Super Capers still feels lazy, dull, painfully juvenile and void of any real thrills, laughs or even unintentionally f... Full Review

[B]rutally stupid... consistently mistakes wholesale theft -- from beloved geek favorites from Star Wars to Back to the Future to The Matrix -- for creative cleverness... Full Review

The movie's only strength is the fabulous comic book/MAD magazine cartoon imagery by humorous illustrator Tom Richmond. Full Review
