    My Super Ex-Girlfriend manages to do what the recent crop of crime fighters haven't: show us how much fun it might be to fly, or have super strength, or look buff in spandex.

    Super Ex does have a certain low-key, adult-contemporary charm. It's almost entirely because of Luke Wilson.

    Uma Thurman plays a flying hero who might as well be called Not Funny Woman.

    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.… Expand

    Promising premise is consistently undermined by its presentation. This should have been a lot more fun and certainly much funnier. Instead it plays more like 'Fatal Attraction,' instead of the romantic comedy I'm sure was intended. Thurman's reckless overbearing character quickly grows insufferable and oppressive. The film grows increasingly more preposterous and silly as it goes along, all the while unraveling like a dropped ball of yarn. Big disappointment!… Expand
