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.

A different look into the life of a superhero. Good performances and bunch of fun. It'll probably make you smile!
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.

I tried. I can laugh and almost anything. No humour here. Lucky to get a chuckle. Just cringy.
I'm very annoyed by this movie because the premise is actually good but they completely dropped the ball every step of the way.
The lead actor is not remotely funny and in fact is annoying to have to watch and listen to. He's not believable or likable.
The story is stupid with a bunch of talking heads delivering bad jokes. There's tons of dialogue but none of it is ever funny and it's seldom even remotely interesting.
There's a couple charming moments but overall this is a much too long, sappy story with a very predictable ending. We didn't enjoy this one at all.
A waste of time for Catherine Tate.
