A Disappointing Continuation
... View MoreWhile it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
... View MoreThe plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
... View MoreAll of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
... View MoreThis film is actually one of the worst marvel films there is. As a film in general it's good but not great, the shrinking novelty has worn off. There were a couple of laughs but didn't find it that funny or impressive and felt like a churned out sequel which should of been better
... View MoreFor starters, how the hell are people giving this a 2 rating?! Really?!I really enjoyed it, more action through out.. more shrinking and added characters and a wider plot leading back to the past (small spoiler).Great from start to finish and 8 in my opinion is this the correct rating.This lives up to the first, some people don't get movies! I will be purchasing on blu ray release!
... View MoreA much welcome breather after the heavyweight that was Avengers: Infinity War, the 20th instalment in the Marvel Cinematic Universe is another lighthearted ride unfolding on the same minuscule scale as Ant-Man, and though not as impressive as Marvel's best works, it still delivers a fine dose of fun, amusing & action-packed entertainment.Set in the aftermath of Captain America: Civil War, the story of Ant-Man and the Wasp finds Scott Lang under house arrest and Dr. Hank Pym & Hope van Dyne in hiding until an urgent mission brings them together once again as the trio try to unlock the secrets of quantum realm before it's too late, while being pursued by both cops & new enemies.Directed by Peyton Reed, the sequel offers him more freedom & bigger canvas to showcase his vision & creativity yet he fails to makes the most of the opportunity and delivers a story that's pretty much on same level as its predecessor. Its action scenes do get an upgrade but the plot is quite simple and is missing the character complexity that drives most sequels.On the plus side, the film retains the humour of the original while the continuous banter & brisk pacing make sure that its 118 mins runtime never become a chore. The swift, kinetic operation of camera infuses an energy to its moments of action on both macro & micro levels while the bright colour tones add a rich texture that makes its images pop out. And Christophe Beck's splendid score adds its very own flavours to the mix.Coming to the performances, Ant-Man and the Wasp benefits from Paul Rudd's natural charisma but it's Evangeline Lilly who steals the show this time in the role of Hope/Wasp. The chemistry between the two still carries a spark but purely on individual inputs, Lilly outshines Rudd by a significant margin. Both Michael Peña & Michael Douglas are more fun in their respective roles this time around but the new characters aren't any good.On an overall scale, Ant-Man and the Wasp makes for a sufficiently entertaining action-adventure and is at its best when it isn't trying too hard. A standalone entry for the most part that eventually connects with the heavy conclusion of Infinity War in a shocking mid-credits sequence, Ant-Man and the Wasp does enough to allow the viewers to settle down before things get hot & heavy once again in the grand finale that surfaces next year.
