Marvel does it again

Rating: 10/10 (22 July 2015)

22 July 2015 Film of Choice at The Plaza Dorchester Tonight - Ant-Man I have to say, Marvellous Marvel does it again. Is there no end to the stories that come out of that Company. Only this last weekend I voiced the opinion that the market has become somewhat saturated by Marvel in the last couple of years, but this film was very entertaining. Scott Lang (played by Paul Rudd) has been chosen and is being watched by Dr Hank Pym (Michael Douglas), to don a special suit which not only enables him to shrink but also increase his strength. Utilising the organisational skills and strength of various species of ant, Ant-Man and Pym together with Pym's daughter Hope, unite to prevent disaster happening to the world. On the face of it, this film is no different to any other super hero film, but delve a little deeper and you come across some real gems of comedic timing, visual gags and subtle nuances that keep the storyline trotting along quite nicely. There are some great scenes where Scott Lang is training to become Ant-Man, and at first failing miserably, and there are also some fine Avenger references!!!! Don't forget, it's a Marvel Film, you need to stay to the very end of the credits.
