Superhero Movie (2008): the Dragonfly, a Spider-Man Parody
Yesterday we watched the parody comedy Superhero Movie (2008). I liked it, my wife called it rubbish, and the little one just loves Spider-Man as such :-)
The hero is the Dragonfly: a schoolboy is bitten by a genetically altered dragonfly and becomes a superhero. Recognize the plot? It’s a parody of Spider-Man.

The cast
There are lots of well-known actors: Drake Bell (the Dragonfly), Sara Paxton, Christopher McDonald, Leslie Nielsen, Kevin Hart, Marion Ross, Ryan Hansen, Pamela Anderson, Marisa Lauren, Craig Bierko.
What it makes fun of
The movie pokes fun at Spider-Man, X-Men, Batman, Fantastic Four and other superhero films. Its ratings aren’t high, but it’s a great movie: viewers on Russian film sites also say they laughed from start to finish, and Leslie Nielsen, even in a small role, brings loads of his trademark humor. I agree 100%.
Enjoy the movie ;-)
