A Ridiculous Superhero Name, Cool Movie

Rating: 7/10 (23 December 2015)

I love Marvel and just about everything Marvel puts out. In fact, because this was a Marvel character I watched it. I say that because Ant-Man was never that intriguing to me in the comics and it didn't sound anymore intriguing just because it was on film. But alas, Marvel usually does a good production so what's a couple of dollars and two hours on a weeknight?
"Ant-Man" was able to make an otherwise ridiculous sounding superhero kinda cool. There was a little bit of back story offered to help the audience understand who created Ant-Man and what the potential conflict would be. Of course it always helps if you're a fan of the comic because then you're totally plugged in to the entire story.
This wasn't one of Marvel's best in my opinion but I can see how and why they are expounding upon the movies they release. 1.) It offers more flavors for the general public and 2.) It sets up for a very awesome super movie which can potentially integrate all of these characters into the story (ala Civil War, House of M, or Secret Invasion for all of you Marvel comic nerds like me).
