SuperBob (2015)
9/10
It's quite unlike the Hollywood superhero flicks... charmingly British..

If you are expecting typical superhero flick laden with special effects, one in which the protagonist is cocksure of himself and knows what to do, says smart one-liners and saves the day... then this isn't the flick you would enjoy... Maybe that's why this one has got such a low score on IMDb. For me, it was a perfectly paced love story, which happens to fall in superhero genre.

It's a slower paced rom-com which might not be suitable for everyone's palate. The ending is sweet, and does not preach any message (good over evil etc etc) but is more about finding love, and working up the courage to admit it.While an extremely polite superhero who gets lorded over by everyone, even an old lady might not make you admire him, but the way his politeness earns him goodwill as a dividend in the end makes you reconsider your opinion.

All in all, a sweet short movie which deserves much better ratings than it currently holds... and maybe, a sequel.
