Reviews

By SWITCH.

This is not a boring film by any stretch - rather, it's just confused by what it wants to say and who its target audience should be. It's harmless and sweet in a way that should encourage children to watch it, but simultaneously lacks the heart and focus to make it more memorable. I found myself clock-watching at times through its two-hour runtime, but ultimately, 'Anton' is inoffensive and just fine. - Joel Kalkopf Read Joel's full article... https://www.maketheswitch.com.au/article/review-anton-thats-what-friends-are-for
