"Tales to Astonish"

Rating: 8/10 (9 December 2015)

One of Marvel's Lesser known, Second String, "Smaller" Characters. Non-Fanboys might not be Aware that Ant-Man was an Original "Avenger". Making His Debut in "Tales to Astonish" #27, He Never got His own Comic and later turned Himself into "Giant-Man".
One of Ant-Man's "Biggest" Charms was His Relationship with the Insects. In this Marvel Universe Movie, it is lovingly Displayed and He works Wonders with His Six-Legged Friends and shows Kid-Friendly Affection for His Helpers.
The Movie itself is probably the Most Kid-Friendly of the Marvel Features to date, adopting a Lighter Tone and for the Love of Lee and Kirby it makes the Movie Refreshing in the ever Growing, Dollar machine, Super-Hero/Comic Book Movies.
The Studio, with the Talent and aid of a Nest of Nerds known as CGI Artists, and the like, the Audience is Transported, once again, to a World Other than Our Own. The Thing that Comic-Books can Do So Well.
In this one, things are Brighter and more Colorful, With an even more Tongue and Cheek approach than the Usual Stuff. It has a Child-Like attitude and some Fresh, Funny Humor from a trio of Sidekicks.
It's a Marvel Movie that is the same but Different. Never running Out of Ideas and Charm, at least up until now, These Movies are Exactly what they Should Be. Fun, Frantic, Fantastical, Action-Packed, and Layered together with the other Movies with a Continuity that the world of Comics have been Doing for many Decades.
It's the kind of Entertainment that can be Enjoyed by the Casually Interested and Fans of Comic-Book Minutia. Together They can Applaud, once again, Marvel Studios and "Ant-Man" as something Really-Cool.
