Micitype Pretty Good
Glimmerubro It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.
AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
rich-stryker This is such a funny movie. This is the British take on Hancock. I will definitely recommend this movie to others.The idea of a mild-manner postman becoming a superhero and taking all of his personality flaws with him makes for a great story. Normally we think that with the extra powers confidence will come along with it but that is not the case for Bob. Bob can't even get a date and he is the personal jar opener for a unionized security guard charged to protect Bob's life.The "girl-friend" is stereotypical "Colombian" but she balances the "loser" persona of Bob.Cute and funny a must see movie for the flip side of Marvel and DC characters.
retonho After watching the trailer I thought this was going to be the typical crap with all the cool shots in the trailer. The second statement is true. The first one isn't.I'm a regular rater and this is probably my first review. I feel the urge to write a positive review because this is the first time I've seen something different in a while. And it's also an independent production. It needs to be known. Superbob rocks.This is what Hancock wished to be. This movie has a real plot and real characters. For punches watch a DC/Marvel one. For story watch this. It's a simple one, very heartfelt and enjoyable.
KineticSeoul 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.7.1/10
Sam Goult 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 itGood bye#WhamBar
