   The superhero mockumentary concept was done once before in Superguy: Beyond the Cape, but my penchant for British humor makes me like SuperBob more. As per British sensibilities, our hero may have Superman-like powers, but he's still one of the most socially awkward milquetoasts around. He may be a superhero working with the Ministry of Defense, but it's just a civil servant job filled with red tape. The camera crew means to cover his weekly mandated day off, but it's going to be the day where everything changes for him. See, after six years of superheroing, he's finally going on a date. Brett Goldstein usually plays the straight man in comedies, but he manages to play the character as comically timid, not very smart and with a foot perpetually in his mouth, and holds his own despite being surrounded by comedy stars like Catherine Tate, Ruth Sheen and Joe Wilkinson. And then there's Natalia Tena as Bob's opinionated Colombian cleaner Doris who steals every scene she's in. 1 year 12 months ago

   A perfect little film with palpable charm that's simply oozing heart. It's all to hard these days to find a movie that exists only because someone really and truly wanted to make it, a personal vision as opposed to corporate committee planning. 7 years 2 months ago

   Vastly overrated. Script was okay but retreads a lot of territory from hundreds of other films. The acting is fine, Catherine Tate plays herself as always. A few good one-liners here and there, but nothing worth any real recognition. Won't be rewatching any time soon. 8 years 3 months ago
