Dove Review

Here is a movie for the “super hero” geeks. Bitten by an ant, Pelle turns into a comic book type hero that has amazing powers which takes him on an adventure of saving the town. As Antboy and his sidekick, Wilhelm, try to investigate all his powers a young girl is kidnapped by a villain that they know nothing about. Along with the girl’s sister, the group comes to her rescue and finds out some interesting facts about the girl’s father’s business and Pelle.

In all the comedic fun and adventure there is an important message in this film, no matter what kind of power or strength that you may have, what is important is the friendships that you make and stand by.

This is a family film but due to some content that the viewers should be aware of, we award “Antboy” with the Dove Family Approved Seal for ages 12+. See content description.
