Superpower () is a 2023 documentary film co-directed by Sean Penn and Aaron Kaufman. It premiered at Berlinale on 17 February 2023. The film profiles Volodymyr Zelenskyy's atypical career path through the eyes of Sean Penn as he seeks to understand Ukraine's recent history. Beginning in late 2021, Penn visited Ukraine several times during the film's production. The film is produced by Vice Studios.
Reception Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned the film a score of 47 out of 100, based on 11 critics, indicating "mixed or average" reviews.
Matt Zoller Seitz of RogerEbert.com gave the film two out of four stars and wrote, "This isn't a bad film by any means: it does a creditable job of convincing us that Penn's heart is in the right place (as an activist) even when the execution is sometimes impulsive or clumsy. But it lacks focus."
