This is anothher MCU film. It's predictable and formulaic. But I think this is a much smaller film and i liked that. It s short and small so it knows what it is and just have fun. I love Paul Rudd he is really fun and naturally funny, Michael Douglas is always really good and another standout is Michael Peña who is hilarious. Characters were likeable and had chemistry. Emotional scenes were fine. Film is much more light hearted which i think is a breath of fresh air. It didn't do it as well as GOTG but it's still fun. It's a fun film. Pacing is fast and climax is very creative. I think emotional scenes didn't fit. It kinda drag in the middle. It was predictable and clichéd. Villain started out good but then it became boring cookie cutter forgettable villain. Even though action is fun and creative it isn't shot spectacularly. Whole film was boringly shot with no energy. If Edgar Wright directed the film it would have been great. Best jokes were ones that he wrote.
Overall: Predictable cliched but fun film.
