SWITCH.
At the end of the day, if it’s been a long week and you’re feeling low, exhausted and maybe even burned out, a film about a group of unlikely elderly men winning big by doing what they love with the ones they love is exactly what you need. It’s a great story, and it needed to be told. I’m thrilled someone introduced me to such wonderful, joyous characters and reminded me that miracles do happen to good people and all in good time. Watching this movie was a much-needed break from the mundane, and it definitely put a smile on my face after a busy day at work. - Lily Meek Read Lily's full review... https://www.maketheswitch.com.au/article/review-fishermans-friends-a-great-catch-for-a-film-about-friendship-and-music
