Superstar
SuperstarQuote: Superstar is a 1999 comedy film and Saturday Night Live spin-off about a quirky, socially inept girl named Mary Katherine Gallagher. The character was created by SNL star Molly Shannon and appeared as a recurring character on SNL in numerous skits. The story follows Mary Katherine trying to find her place in her Roman Catholic private school. The movie is directed by former The Kids in the Hall member Bruce McCulloch.
It stars Molly Shannon, Will Ferrell, Harland Williams, and Elaine Hendrix. SNL and The Kids in the Hall alum Mark McKinney, who appeared in many of the Mary Katherine Gallagher SNL skits on TV, also has a minor role as a priest.
Molly Shannon received a nomination for Blockbuster Entertainment Award "Favorite Actress - Comedy", but lost out to Heather Graham in Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me.

Re: Superstar
When I was a teenager and this first came out I found it fairly funny. Saw it again this last weekend and don't know what I was thinking. It was terrible. Highly annoying and unfunny. Normally I would root for the underdog, but the character of Mary Katherine Gallagher is too weird to find even remotely likable.
4/10 (D+)

Re: Superstar
This was awful even when i was a kid, as bad as Ladiesman and Night at the Roxbury are, this might be the worst of that generation's adaptations.

Re: Superstar
I remember liking A Night At The Roxbury as well. LOL. Wonder if I'd hate it now.

Re: Superstar
Outside of his awesome cameos in the first two Austin Powers films, Farrell was just not that funny in film.
