Mark Thomas REVIEW - ANT MANYes I finally got around to watching the other insect inspired super hero movie who is a cross between Spiderman, Iron man and Batman.Spiderman because of his insect name, Ironman because of his powered suit, Batman because he is basically a normal gut just with a special suit.When this film first came out in 2015 I really didn't fancy it at all and when I saw the appearance of Ant Man in Infinity War it didn't impress me, so why did I watch this?Good question.Yes funny in places which Marvel or is it DC, (can't recall which is which because of the sheer number of super hero films we are being bombarded with at present) tend to learn towards rather than the dark, emotional and brooding films made by the other studio (whatever it is called).Watching the film, honestly I just thought it was lazy writing, giving the clue about shrinking into nothingness so early in the film and how our anti-hero (hey is that where the name 'ant man' came from) managed to escape this extra small dimension.Simple to watch and follow, some excellent comedy pieces by the 3 stooges but just (as I predicted) didn't hit home for me personally, but was an enjoyable watch none the kless.One thing that really cpnfirmed the lazy writing was with the film is the fact that the inventor of the 'Yellow Suit' (as I said lazy writing), was told by Michael Douglas that he was experiencing mental issues due to using the yellow suit, how? he had only just created the zero particle to power or size down the suit as tested on the lambs, so how could he have used the yellow suit previously to become so mentally unstable to sell to Hydra?Lazy writing.Personally for me the highlights of the film were Thomas The Tank Engine and the Tank!Rating 7 out of 10

priceturner A highly underrated gem in the ever expanding MCU. Ant-Man treats us to a smaller story, and introduces us to great new characters through standout performances from Paul Rudd, Michael Douglas, Michael Peña, and Evangeline Lily. Delivering a fun superhero heist adventure with creative action sequences and dazzling visuals.

jokerj-83585 When this movie was announced, the premise actually sounded pretty intriguing. But sure enough, through a combination of lame CGI, stale humour, terrible pacing and poor character development, they made this movie boring. Well done. But this movie still gets a 10/10 instant classic marvelpiece.

invisibleunicornninja This movie is decent. There are a lot of problems with plot consistency and tone. A lot of scenes that are supposed to be serious end up even goofier than the ones where you disbelief needs to be suspended. This is a very silly movie that works the best when its being comedic. Its pretty funny and absurd. The character development is a bit weak for the most part. I wouldn't really recommend this movie, but it is entertaining.
