Power Girl (Tawnya Manion) is in a fight with Superman-clone Bizarro
(Guzile Branco, voiced by Chris R.Notarile), a fight that tires her
because Bizarro is no match for her - basically, he's just, well, pretty
stupid. Actually, the fight is so little of a challenge that she picks up
her cellphone about halfway through to talk to Oracle (Sarah Durning),
leader of the Birds of Prey, to gossip about all sorts of things, much to
Bizarro's despair. One of the few fanmade superhero-hommage
movies that gets it right, I'm Power Girl Dammit!!! does not
blindly worship its central character, shedding an undifferentiated light
on her, but on the other hand it also doesn't make fun of her to the point
of being moronic. Basically, this is just an amusing little story that
might not take the character 100% seriously (heck, even Bizarro calls her Boobie
Girl) but handles her with respect anyways and puts its humour into
the situation - a situation that does make sense within the framework of a
Power Girl-story. All that said, Power Girl Dammit!!!
might not be the best superhero comedy ever, but for its less than 5
minutes of running time, it's quite amusing ...
