Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania: Sci-Fi Superhero

Movie Review: Anti-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania (2023) on Disney + 👍

Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania is one of the campier superhero movies of the Marvel Universe, and it's played with honest, fun humor by Paul Rudd as Scott Lang/Ant-Man and a stellar supporting cast. This includes Evangaline Lilly as the Wasp, Michael Douglas as Dr. Hank Pym, and Michelle Pfeiffer as Janet Van Dyne. Kathryn Newton plays Ant-Man's daughter, Cassie. They all get sucked by a vortex into the Quantum Realm in this latest episode of this, for my money, silly tale. (See the movie trailer below.)

    The story represents a revisit to the realm for Janet, who re-tangles with old adversaries. Solving old rivalries and their searches for vengeance is the key to everyone returning home. This episode features lots of squirmy quantum-size creatures brought to life size for our heroes to battle and tight squeezes to work their way out of. Naturally, Ant-Man and the Wasp, with the help of Cassie, must save the day. 

    It's impossible not to enjoy Ant-Man for his likeable, self-deprecating style and whimsical humor. Everyone gels as characters in this story, and maybe this is what makes the campiness work so well. If nothing else, you'll enjoy watching everyone work awkwardly wholesomely good relationships to save the day. 

    My wife loves everything superhero, and she loved it. My daughter is so-so on superhero stories and she loved it, too. Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania seems good for just about any audience. Give it a try!
