A low budget superhero romance movie that is actually endearing and highly watchable. Maybe it's the awkward interactions dealing with a awkward superhero, but I enjoyed watching the characters and the direction of this low budget movie. So the plot is about a postman that gains super powers after getting hit by a meteor. But the thing is, the guy is super socially awkward but a very likable and friendly guy. So the movie is about him dealing with his average daily life despite him being super awkward and having super powers. The thing is, socially awkward people or people that have trouble interacting with someone they really like or people that are a bit of a introvert will probably find the character Bob to be relatable. He is far from being the suave, cool and charming Batman/James Bond type of hero. Despite the awkward comedic elements that is the main driving force of this movie. Where you can have the looks or the money or the most genuine and good intentions, but just has a difficult time with the woman or the man you have a big liking to. If your an audience member that just wants to see some superhero action, you will leave disappointed. They just didn't have the budget for that. But if you want a movie with likable protagonist and endearing awkward humor you might enjoy this one. This movie sort of reminded me of the movie "Hancock" in some ways, but I liked this one more. Despite the limited budget and the very short running time. It's actually a enjoyable independent film that is worth a watch.

You've seen South-East London in Attack the Block. Now see it again in this very funny take on 'what if superheroes were real' with excellent performances from Brett Goldstein, Natalia Tena and Catherine Tate.

Bob is a postman who gets struck by a meteorite. This gives him superpowers. Unfortunately, being in Britain, he gets stuck in a world of forms and civil servants.

Even more unfortunately, having superpowers doesn't make him a cool person, so if he's not off saving the world, he's struggling to do the normal things like the rest of us, things like putting up with his Mum, going on a date, etc.

Hilariously British comedy. Endearing normal characters, Super Bob is the plucky Peckham underdog. Amazing 'awkwardness' of true Brits works perfectly inside a documentary style film (same as The Office was genius)(lots of improv is gold dust) and above all a heartwarming story. You'll root for bob and leave the cinema uplifted, but gutted you cant fly too! Wonderfully shot by Jon Drever and superbly written- Superbob actor Brett co-wrote it! Very funny, feel good, highly recommended. Loved it

Good bye

Hanging Out With a Superhero...

Yesterday I attended the World Premiere of SuperBob at the BFI.

Wow!

Mark Kermode, the film critic, has a '5 laugh rule' for a 90 minute movie. SuperBob smashed this within the first 10 minutes. It was very, very funny. SuperBob won the 'Discovery Award' at the LOCO Film Festival - watch it and you'll understand why.

This is a real 'feel good' movie, a warm romantic comedy with SuperBob's romantic interests beautifully played by Natalia Tena and Laura Haddock.

So, congratulations to the director, Jon Drever, and the lead and co-writer, Brett Goldstein, on an amazing achievement and I urge everyone to see this movie at the earliest opportunity.

Hilarious! Go and see it!

The very first image seen of Bob in the "origin story" montage is actually a still from the original Superbob short film.
