A pretty fun Marvel movie with really inventive special effects

Rating: 10/10 (3 April 2019)

In 2015, like Avengers: Age of Ultron, Ant-Man had a lot to live up to a year after the critical and financial successes of Captain America: The Winter Soldier and Guardians of the Galaxy, fortunately, it did not disappoint! Paul Rudd did a really nice job as the well-meaning thief who is called on by Hank Pym (Michael Douglas) to pull a heist to stop the nefarious Yellowjacket. The special effects and cinematography are really cool. (Russell Carpenter, the guy who did the cinematography for this film, also did the cinematography for The Indian in the Cupboard, another small-size movie) The fight scenes are really fun to watch as well. Overall, while it is formulaic, it is still a fun film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe! Stay after the credits for an extra scene!
