Marvel fans prepare yourself for the next instalment of the Marvel Cinematic Universe because Ant-Man and The Wasp has hit the big screen.
Set in the aftermath of Captain America: Civil War, Scott Lang (Paul Rudd), must face the consequences of his choices while trying to balance life as both a Super Hero and a father. Confronted by Hope van Dyne (Evangeline Lilly) who returns to the film as Ant-Man’s long-awaited ally The Wasp, and Dr. Hank Pym (Michael Douglas), Scott is faced with a new mission. Torn between doing what’s right for himself and what’s right for those he loves, Scott must once again don the suit and learn to fight as a team alongside The Wasp in order to uncover secrets from the past.
Directed by Peyton Reed and his creative team which includes editors Dan Lebental (Ant-Man, Spider-Man: Homecoming) and Craig Wood (Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, The Great Wall), two-time Academy Award nominee, visuals effects supervisor Stephane Ceretti (Doctor Strange, Guardians of the Galaxy), and eight-time Academy Award nominee, special effects supervisor Dan Sudick (Avengers: Infinity War, Captain America: Civil War), Ant-Man and The Wasp delivers an amazing visual experience through great filming and stunning special effects. Round two of the adventures of Ant-Man also delivers on the humour, a quality Marvel is known and loved for, and the audience will be living for Michael Peña’s on-screen time.
The film is more elaborate than a few laughs and some good quality action though. The science factor makes this movie. There is a whole lot of quantum physics jargon thrown around throughout the film which lend plausibility to the events that take place and creates a world that the audience can easily connect to their own reality.
Overall, watching the film is an enjoyable experience from start to finish. And yes, you’re going to want to sit through those ending credits.
