Somebody's Hero is a 2012 American family feature film written and directed by Darin Beckstead,[1] starring Christopher Gorham, Susan Misner, and Arthur Nascarella.

Plot

An ordinary accountant, Dennis Sullivan, secretly plays superhero while falling for his widowed client; Katie Wells and her hero-obsessed son. [2][3][4]

Cast

Production

Somebody's Hero was filmed and set in New York City.[5] The film was written and directed by Darin Beckstead.[6][7]

Reception

The film was screened at the 2011 Coney Island Film Festival,[8] where it later won the Award for the "Best Feature".[9][10] It was further recognized by the Waterfront Film Festival, the Heartland Film Festival,[1][11] and Newport Beach Film Festival.[12]

A review at Criterion Cast stated, "Overall, Somebody’s Hero is a flawed crowd pleaser that, if you allow yourself to get sucked into the romance and ‘you must stand up, if not for yourself, but for others’ message, you’ll be hard pressed to not be charmed by this warm and loving comedy. Featuring a handful of great performances, it may not be the most rewarding watch ever, but I’ll be damned if this one doesn’t win you over by the time the credits roll."[13]
