Supercool

So many low-budget movies try REALLY HARD to "look like a big budget movie". Thankfully, this film does its own thing entirely!

GREAT LOCATIONS!!!

REALLY FUN stuff with the dialogue being highlighted on screen!!! (and it's GREAT dialogue!!!). I felt like I was back watching the OG Independent Film Channel in the late 90's, which is a feeling I sorely miss!

This movie is as good or better than most comedies made for literally HUNDREDS (thousands???) of times the budget.

I was reminded of Spike Lee's very early work!

I'd LOVE to see what this Director could do with MILLIONS of dollars!!!

If you're looking for a SUPER INDIE, FUN teenage comedy that's unlike any of the boring, redundant "studio crap"- check out this movie!!!

Stylizes and fast-paced. The slang words appearing on screen are a very unique touch that complements the film's high energy. It also allowed for my favorite joke in the movie, when one character says she's going to get some leaves, the title "leaves" stays as she exits. Thirdly, it was nice to have the spelling for some of those words to look up on urban dictionary lol.

The guy who plays the crime boss was fantastic, abd leaves a lasting impression that haunts you through the rest of the film.

Overall, the film's pure underground spirit is really captivating and the lackbof budget works completely for the film and not against it.

Supercool tells the story of a awkward young man looking to connect with his dream girl. His attempts to be cool and gain her attention is a story most people can relate to. The film has some ingenious elements, like highlighting certain words, which looks like a fun education in slang. Throw in some gangsters, a charismatic, advice-giving best friend, and some over-the-top supporting characters, and you have a wild joyride. Having the role of writer, director and cinematographer in any film is difficult, but Gabriel Black showcases a unique voice and brings a vibrant vision to the screen. The film captures some great scenery and the lead character seems like someone to cheer for. This is a film that has it's own niche. Some of the themes may be too adult for some younger viewers, but fans of films like American Pie, Superbad, or Friday should enjoy the film.

I'm in my twenties and I understood most of the street slang. The words on the screen a la Scott pilgrim vs the world went by a little fast but I didn't need them. The movie is a little dirty so leave mom and grandma out of it. Lol.

This was an extremely entertaining movie for a few different reasons.

A) It explores the typical struggles of teens' lives with discovering their sexuality and the challenges they face from not being self-reliant adults. The story is hilariously written and flows really well. The cast did an amazing job bringing this film to life.

B) It also has an educational point of view. The film is an encyclopedia of slang terms and even has a dictionary at the end that thoroughly explores each term used by the cast in the movie.

C) It is reminiscent of a mixture of cult classics. The storyline reminds you of Superbad, while the tone of the film reminds you of Scarface, and the cast's chemistry reminds you of Stranger Things.

A very well-written story with an entertaining plot that teaches you every modern slang word. It is a must-see!
