    For small children maybe interesting
    It is a nice little movie, but it has nothing to be exceptional.

    It may be good for very little children up to 5 years, who do not need, nor appreciate costly special effects.

    It is a very basic and generic superhero origin story full of clichés and nothing original.

    It could have been something funny like "Kick Ass" or it could have been some kind of deeper drama helping bigger children (5-10) finding their ways or providing tips for their problems... some sensitive, psychological stuff...

    Unfortunately none of these were in the movie. It was just a story rewritten by a school boy, who has seen Spiderman, where he exchanged the word "Spiderman" with the word "Antboy".

    There was no humor, nor suspension, nor drama, nothing.

    The child actors made a decent job and the directing was solid craftsmanship, but that's all.
