Full Take

A silly and ribald superhero spoof, Toxic Avenger uninhibited humor hits more than it misses. A 98-pound nerd (Mark Torgl) from New Jersey lands in a vat of toxic waste and becomes a benevolent monster (Mitchell Cohen).. Ace verdict: more niche than essential, even if the movie still has a few sharp edges.
