My Super
Ex-Girlfriend by Don Payne
Seven out
of 10
The good
moments are few and far between.
You may
enjoy though the scene wherein Jenny Johnson aka G-Girl aka Uma Thurman breaks
the bed of her lover.
This is charming
Matt Saunders aka Luke Wilson.
Perhaps the
most laudable aspect of this comedy is that it takes the idea of the superhero,
superheroine in this case, lightly.
Faced with
avalanche of Avengers, Spider Men, X and other Super Men, the public may enjoy
one feature where we are not in awe at the exploits of the main character.
Yes, G-Girl
saves people in trouble.
She even
releases poor Matt from the Statue of Liberty, where he was hanging and just
about to die.
The Super
Girl takes the trouble to change the trajectory of a missile, just when it was
ready to hit a crowded city.
Only this
last endeavor comes after Matt insists that she does something to prevent a
massacre and she is rather infuriated she has to work all the time and find
solutions…
Otherwise,
there is not much here that we can admire, but this is mostly because we have
been inundated with so many heroes, sequels, prequels and spin offs of comic
book characters that it is more than enough.
If we are to
select among them though, Super Ex- Girlfriend has more merits that most of the
other motion pictures in the genre.
