Confessions of a Superhero

What this man can do to pull you into the world he creates is insanity. I found myself feeling so connected to the characters, and it was as if I knew them. I am so impressed by the fact that he made this movie with only $24,000. The movie makes you think, it's relatable, and has every single emotion that captures the human experience. I loved it so much that I had to attend both screenings in person. I highly recommend that everyone go and watch this movie. To those that haven't watched it yet: please rectify this and check it out on Apple TV. I cannot wait to see what the talented Inderveer Sodhi does next.

I had the privilege of attending the movie premiere and viewing it on a large screen, and was completely enthralled. The colour scheme of the movie was fantastic. Every scene's colours are related to Samar's colour palette, and the audience is led to assume that they are a part of Samar's world.

I was deeply impressed by the way Samar's various relationships with the other characters were depicted. The mood of the era was powerfully represented and expressively captured in the movie. The movie's concept is incredibly creative, as it explores the range of feelings that a person going through adolescence feels.

I loved the contrast in demeanour between Samar and Zeitgeist.

Zeitgeist's exuberant character was performed masterfully!

Inderveer, the promising filmmaker, has delivered another outstanding piece of cinematic art with his second film. Having attended the premiere and experienced it on the big screen, I can confidently say that I do not regret my decision. This movie presents an intriguing concept, accompanied by exceptional dialogue and a profound connection among the characters. Without a doubt, I wholeheartedly recommend this masterpiece to all cinema enthusiasts, aspiring actors, and aspiring filmmakers.

One of the most remarkable aspects of this film is its captivating concept. Inderveer has once again showcased his creative brilliance by presenting a unique and thought-provoking idea. The movie's storyline pushes boundaries and explores uncharted territories, leaving the audience engrossed in its world from start to finish. By challenging conventional narratives, the film takes risks and rewards viewers with a refreshing experience that sets it apart from other mainstream productions.

Another strength lies in the movie's exceptional dialogue. Every word spoken by the characters feels meaningful and contributes to the depth of the narrative. Inderveer's ability to craft compelling conversations not only enhances the overall storytelling but also allows the audience to develop a strong emotional connection with the characters. The dialogue reflects the complexities of human relationships, delving into the depths of their thoughts and emotions, making the film a truly immersive experience.

Furthermore, the chemistry among the characters is a standout feature of this film. The cast delivers outstanding performances, effortlessly bringing their roles to life. Their interactions feel genuine and organic, creating a believable on-screen connection that resonates with the audience. The dynamics between the characters evolve throughout the story, allowing for moments of both tenderness and intensity. This genuine portrayal of human connections adds an extra layer of authenticity to the film.

Inderveer's directorial prowess is evident throughout the movie. His vision and meticulous attention to detail are showcased in every frame. From the visually stunning cinematography to the meticulous production design, each element contributes to the overall aesthetic appeal of the film. The skillful use of lighting and color schemes further enhances the mood and atmosphere of each scene, effectively immersing the audience in the story's world.

In addition to its technical brilliance, the film also tackles significant themes and societal issues. It prompts introspection and encourages viewers to contemplate the complexities of human existence. The narrative gracefully explores topics such as love, loss, identity, and personal growth, leaving a lasting impact on the audience. Through its thought-provoking storytelling, the movie transcends its entertainment value and becomes a catalyst for deeper reflections on life itself.

Inderveer's second film is an impressive achievement, solidifying his position as a talented filmmaker, director, and actor. His ability to create a captivating narrative, combined with exceptional dialogue and a profound connection among the characters, sets this movie apart from the rest. By pushing boundaries and delving into profound themes, Inderveer offers a refreshing cinematic experience that is both intellectually stimulating and emotionally resonant.

Ps. The score is great.

You could say each of the genres I listed above represent each of the lead characters in this film, but as the story progresses the lines between these genres begin to blur, much like Samar's own perspective on the people around him. Samar grows with each relationship.

I will admit however, that maybe it's not for everyone to dissect a film like this, it is a slow-burn so don't go in expecting an MCU type of action flick. If you're into more cinematic or artsy films that revolve around people and themes, I would say this is right up your alley. It's a movie that makes you think; an emotional drama through and throughout.

The cinematography and music alone are a fantastic reason to watch this fiIm, I loved the use of yellow in each setting. It looks like a comic-book.

I really enjoyed Inderveer's performance, there's something about just his eyes that can convey so much. And his performance is so beautifully balanced by JP Padda as Jason, there's such a still intensity to him.

The entire lead cast has done a splendid job, and you can really see how wide everyone's range is: from the subtle quiet scenes to the loud punches. I did not expect some of the scenes to go where they did in the story, but the actors really helped blend the tones of each scene so seamlessly.

Special mention for Daniela Estefania as Meera, she handles such a complex character with ease. I was going to say it's manic-pixie-dream-girl archetype, but the end really makes you question that.

Overall, I would recommend this film to cinema enthusiasts and especially emerging filmmakers who are getting into the craft. Excited to see what happens when Inderveer has a real budget to make his films!

I was truly engulfed with the movie's premise right from the first frame. Not only does the colour palette and cinematography completely grip you into the world but the music also composed by Inderveer just captures your imagination right from the opening title track: Jab Se Aya. Super happy that the English translations were burned-in for all the songs in the film, they don't feel out of place being in Hindi but knowing the meaning definitely elevates the narrative.

Representation is something that is heavily pushed nowadays to the point of treating different races like an agenda rather than fitting into a genuine story or expression, but this film's cast which is mostly brown are just characters which was honestly so heartwarming. No one was playing a stereotype of a brown person, they just happened to be brown in a world of interesting characters if that makes sense.

Very impressed with the lead cast's performances, especially Inderveer and Daniela. Such raw chemistry.

Thank you Inderveer for making this film, I know you're gonna win an Oscar in a few years. I don't know how anyone could make this film with such a stupidly small amount of money.
