7.5/10 It was a sequel that improves upon the first film. Paul Rudd is effortless charming and Evangeline Lilly was kickass as the Wasp. Michael Pena again steals the show with his comedic charisma. Michelle Pfeiffer was underutilized. The storyline was pretty low-key and the stakes weren't too high. However, Walton Goggin's character and his subplot pretty much had no effect on the overall story. Not to mention, with the main characters being fugitive trying to do the right thing really gives the film some gravitas and weight. It was also refreshing to see a divorced couple not to be portrayed as being bitter, but loving and supportive. The visual effects and the use of motion capture to de-age Pfeiffer and Michael Douglas again was very convincing and inventive. I thought the first de-age on Douglas looked bad. I was seriously worried for a bit. Pfeiffer was there, but where was Douglas? And the very last bit? Really knocked the snap home. The tv with the off air signal & the ant there alone? They have to totally undo the snap. How many people were taken out? How many kids? How many parents? Janet spent all that time trapped in the quantum realm. Helps Ghost first thing, & she deserves non-existentence?
Cassie better have survived. She is adorable No. Just no. Douglas was also there in the prologue before the Marvel Studios logo when he is saying goodbye to Hope. As for the snap, Cassie Lang supposedly survived the snap since she's being played by an older actress in Avengers 4. |

2nd after credtis scene?
In all honesty, no kidding, 100% serious, you missed absolutely NOTHING!!! It is literally the WORST after credits scene EVER!!! No joke. THE WORST!!! Spoils nothing, add nothing. Shouldn't even exist.
As a matter of fact its in the trailer, so you've actually already seen it. I'm not kidding. The worst after credits scene of ALL the MCU movies. No joke. Its SO stupid I honestly wonder why they even bothered.
No. The off air signal. The ant. It cut deep dude. How many people did that snap take out? Did we lose Cassie? She is adorably spunky. Her parents? How many kids did Thanos vanish? How many kids are orphans? That last bit was very sad. SPOILERS!!!!
There were TONS of ways to get that message across better than showing a ridiculous ant playing electronic drums and making us wait for it. That was just plain dumb. As for the cutting deep... they'd already done that with the first after credits scene. To see that all three were gone was like ouch! I kinda wish they'd at least left one of them around, like maybe Michelle Pfeiffer (whom I still have a crush on even though she's 60, LOL)

I love how DC-Fan wants us to believe he’s not biased against the MCU at all and yet clicks like on every negative post about this MCU movie he hasn’t seen. As for rating the movie, never seen it. But my mom and brother saw it and loved it. Ant-Man & the Wasp has already been posted online. Already saw it and it's another awful movie. Haven't had time to post my review yet, but I'll try to get that done this week. |

Is this a joke or something?
I was only making an "ant" pun.

As for the snap, Cassie Lang supposedly survived the snap since she's being played by an older actress in Avengers 4. Aww. I hope its for the rumored time travel because I like the actress they currently have. But like I said, how many other normal folk vanished? Fanboys can whine about making the deaths stuck for same strange idea that fictional character deaths somehow are equal to real world deaths (sorry, not the real world deaths I've experienced), but that second after credit brought home how many of the innocent civilians the heroes are meant to protect went down to Thanos. |

I could care less about the ant playing drums. It was earlier in the film. I meant the quiet street, the test signal on the tv, the silence. An empty world. Yes, I know people survived, but it doesnt really seem like half. Some areas seem more devastated which means some were less affected Damn! I put it in a spoiler! If you clicked I said about Janet being unfair. But again, out of 3? Very uneven. |

Any chance you could unlock the poll so non-voters can see the results. We gotta wait nearly a month to see the film, so it would be nice just to see what the general opinion is.
I suppose I could just click 10 and get to see but then that wouldn't be right (though how many votes have been cast just to see the scores?)

8.5, was a lot of fun and better than the first (which I liked but wasn't overly crazy about).
