A mid tier MCU movie. The action is a lot of fun and the powers work extremely well in live action. When Ant Man is doing Ant Man stuff it’s a solid enjoyable flick. The cast is also (mostly) pretty good.
However, almost all the genuinely creative ideas came from the original team. The wonderfully quirky train set fight feels like it was lifted from a better movie (because it literally was). The humor is also very hit and miss with some of it being just intolerably cringey. The first act is a pain to get through. Outside of the action the story, direction and characterization is very basic and stale.
Overall it has just enough Anty goodness to overcome its flaws. Overall I’d rate it as perfectly watchable. I still wish Wright had committed to this in Phase One. I really think an Ant Man movie by a more capable creative team could’ve reached much higher heights.

I thought it was gonna suck and I wound up really enjoying it. Still, it's a shame that Edgar Wright left the project.

It also was a very underwhelming closing film for phase 2. Granted phase 2 was a mixed bag for me but god damn that was a weak way to end it.

I felt like watching more MARVEL so I thought it’d be fun to watch all the movies where ANT MANG makes an appearance. Civil War is next, then Wasp Woman and End Game. It’s an ANT MANG MARATHONG!
