Confessions of a Superhero

This movie is an absolute delight and a great opportunity for anyone wishing to learn how to do high impact filmmaking on a reasonably low budget.

Be it the lighting or the colours or the production design- everything is done so so well!

Also the music is sublime!! All the songs and the overall soundtrack is very fresh. Each character gets a proper theme as well.

Overall, the film has a great recall value and is a must watch for anyone looking for a nice slice of life indie film with a lot of good South Asian representation. Such a cool coming of age film and it has no business being this good!

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.

Got to see the film on AppleTV with my girlfriend, and we both came out of it a little numb. There's so many things to breakdown and deconstruct as a viewer; I was not expecting to be so moved by a "superhero film."

It's an extremely mature take on what it means to be a protagonist or hero for people around you.

Where does the hero stand in all the chaos? Do their conflicts take the backseat? What if saving people was the "backseat"?

All of this is explored with such subtlety but huge impact through such an innovate story and concept. Kudos to the director Inderveer who weaved this amazing film together. I can't explain how this film manages to make you feel so bitter and sad without much really even happening, I'm not sure if I'm ready to watch it again.

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 went into this film knowing it only had a budget of $26,000 so to be very honest, I did not expect much really. But my god...this movie does not look or feel like $26,000. I only just realized that Inderveer made his first film with $4,000, are you freaking serious?

Someone give this man a million dollar budget, like seriously.

I haven't even gotten into the story or the characters because I'm just so awestruck by the sheer ambition to make a film like this and the pure creativity he poured into it. It's a twist on the classic superhero story, almost a deconstruction of the tropes we're used to seeing: the friend, the girl, and the older mentor. But it takes the saviour complex trait found in a lot of superheroes, and spins into a literal theme and conflict within its protagonist, an anonymous therapist. I feel like its a movie you have to watch a few times to truly soak in the emotion and atmosphere, which is another thing I should mention. The film's setting feels weird and familiar, but new at the same time. Very nostalgic.

And what do I even say about the music? Masterpiece level stuff.
