Club called the song a "saucy, self-centered track."[20] The reviewer also commented positively about the song, describing it as a "galloping, horn-plastered title track.[20] Billboard and American Songwriter ranked the song number three and number four, respectively, on their lists of the 10 greatest Demi Lovato songs.[21][22]

Music video
Background and development
Released on October 9, 2015, through Lovato's Vevo channel, the music video for "Confident" was directed by Robert Rodriguez, stars Lovato along with Michelle Rodriguez, Jeff Fahey, Zane Holtz and Marko Zaror,[38] and was shot at Troublemaker Studios in Austin, Texas. Lovato had asked Robert Rodriguez to direct the music video after meeting him through her role as Maia in From Dusk Till Dawn: The Series. Speaking to MTV, the director said: "We have created our own method, our own way of making movies. So whenever I am going to do a project, and especially something I really care about, I have to do it here."
The director also explain that he imagined the video while listening to the song: "When I got the music and I heard it, it was so epic and cinematic. It sounded so much like a movie score. It had so much energy, I had to call [Lovato] and find out how she came up with it. She said that she wanted to put more of a rock influence into some of the songs in the album; that was totally up my alley."[39] In a behind the scenes interview, Michelle Rodriguez said: "The song is so cool, I love the message behind it, about the girls believing in themselves." She also commented about her participation on the video: "What really caught my attention was the bonding of girls who were hating on each other, and then all of a sudden join forces."[40] Robert also stated to MTV:
"I wanted it to look like a movie, not like a vamped up, over-the-top music video or a movie in a video, but actually something that looked like it was from a spy film. I felt it was this great culmination of movie, ideas and visuals all put together into this song created by Demi Lovato."[39]
Synopsis
The video starts with Lovato in a maximum security prison where she is offered a pardon by a US marshal (Fahey) for the capture of Michelle Rodriguez's character. Sent to apprehend her, Lovato soon realizes that Rodriguez is actually in league with the marshal and that Lovato is the one being set up for treason. As the police attempt to take Lovato back to prison, she fights back and attempts to stop Rodriguez. Rodriguez overpowers her and she is taken captive by the police in a prison bus. However, Lovato knocks her captors unconscious, breaks free and jumps into Rodriguez's trailing car. A fistfight ensues before the pair realize that they were both played (and branded) by the marshal. They then team up to apprehend the marshal, who is later arrested by the police. Lovato and Rodriguez then bid farewell and leave on their motorcycles.[41]
