A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

I think that the humor in this movie was awful. The part about how the parents died is extremely stupid and not well thought out. The only thing that saved this movie for me is the fact that Evian (Elaine Hendrix) was in it. Only memorable part of this move was her in her bra and panties. Will Ferrel was decently funny but overall the movie as a whole was just plain terrible. The movie was filled with cheesy lines. The single worse part was the random singing and dancing. I thought this was an even stupider version of glee. The acting was way over the top and not in a good way. I didn't find myself crying on the floor laughing.

First of all, Glynis Johns should be made a Dame of the British Empire by now. She is in her 80s but she provides a service playing Mary Catherine Gallagher's loving grandmother. Molly Shannon is also incredibly funny if you enjoy her role as Mary Catherine Gallagher who sniffs her armpits when she's nervous and knocks over everything from pianos to tables. Will Ferrell is very funny as the guy she chases. There are lot of familiar faces from Saturday Night Live besides Will and Molly. Of course, I don't think this movie should have been in the cinemas. It would have fared better on Comedy Central just for laughs. Oh well, I have one question is that when the beloved Glynis Johns will be made Dame Glynis and that is the question.

i have never heard about Molly Shannon till i saw SUPERSTAR!it was great.even though the actors weren't as teen as their role asked for the movie was great.at first i thought that this would influence the movie and would make me not see the essential,what the movie really wanted to show,the theme,but finally i realised that if the roles had been interpreted by teenagers the movie wouldn't'have been so remarkable.i saw myself in every character:when i was little i used to dream about me being a superstar,sometimes i'm doing the same things Mary Katherine did("sometimes when i get nervous,i put my fingers under my arms,and then smell them like this...");was funny when she destroyed the banana & showed it to that guy who attracted by her.also ,something that teenagers use to do,which is not quite good & i'm ashamed i sometimes act like this, ,is "fighting" with their parents,and in Mary's case with her granny. i loved the movie and it became one of my favorite's!

This is a cute enough Comedy, that's entertaining and often quite funny, with a good story and solid performances. All the characters are good, and this is nowhere near as bad as critics have made it out to be in fact it's rather good, plus Molly Shannon is very funny as the lead. It has some really goofy humor but it worked for me because I like that kind, and it's well made and written as well, plus the ending was absolutely hilarious!. I laughed my ass off when ever Mary started talking dirty and making out to that tree,as I thought the nun's reaction that was watching her so funny, plus Maria's Devil song had me in stitches!. Elaine Hendrix is extremely annoying and very effective as the bitch, and Will Ferrell managed to amuse me in a few scenes, plus Mary's confession scene at the beginning where she says some lines from the T.V movie Sybil was also hilarious. There were a few misses of course, but they were still enjoyable scenes, and I don't see why this is so lowly rated (4.4 come one!), plus all the characters are pretty likable for the most part. This is a cute enough Comedy that's entertaining and often quite funny, with a good story and solid performances, and I say it's well worth the watch!. The Direction is good!. Bruce McCulloch does a good! job here with pretty good camera work, good angles and keeping the film funny and at a fast pace. The Acting is solid and quite fun!. Molly Shannon is brilliant as the lead, she has such a talented and hilarious comedian as she is so funny here, she is extremely likable, had a cool character, seemed to be enjoying her role, was wonderfully quirky and energetic, and was the main reason this movie was as funny as it was, I loved her!. Will Ferrell is rather amusing here and thankfully Doesen't over do it, he was goofy but it worked, I actually kind of dug his character, as he did pretty good. Elaine Hendrix is extremely annoying as the bitch and was so convincing, she was good looking but way too unlikable she did her job extremely well, because I couldn't stand her!. Harland Williams is good as the guy who's in love with Shannon (Mary), he was likable and I dug his stutter!. Mark McKinney is very good as the Father he had nice comic timing and his facial expressions were priceless!. Glynis Johns is funny as the Grandma and surprisingly added a lot of spark I liked her. Emmy Laybourne is good as Mary's best friend she was energetic I liked her. Jennifer Irwin is hilarious as the girl who's obsessed with The Devil, I really liked her. Tom Green has a small role as an ass heckler. Rest of the cast are fine. Overall well worth the watch!. *** out of 5
