The Super

About This Movie

So, 'The Super' from '91 is a quirky comedy that dives into the life of Louie Kritski, played by Joe Pesci. It’s got this grungy, gritty vibe, really reflecting the rundown apartment setting. The whole premise of a slumlord stuck in his own mess is pretty wild and darkly humorous. Pesci brings his usual high energy, but there's a real sense of desperation in his performance that makes it stand out. The pacing is a bit uneven, but you get drawn into the absurdity of his situation and the bizarre tenants he deals with. There are definitely some practical effects used for the apartment's decay that add to the authenticity, making it an interesting watch for anyone into offbeat comedies.
