Autistic Reviewers opinion on this movie.

Rating: 8/10 (10 November 2015)

I thoroughly enjoyed Ant-Man. I didn't have high expectations because, honestly, the movie is based on a character whose super power is to shrink to the size of an ant. When you think about it logically it sounds ridiculous. But, as Marvel has proved time and again, they can make that premise entertaining. Sure some of it is a little ridiculous but we're talking about a super hero movie here, not a documentary.
Paul Rudd is PERFECT for this role. I don't think anyone else could play Scott/Ant-Man any better. He's smart, funny and as Paul Rudd usually is, honest and real. All that just makes the movie more fun and completely hilarious.
Evangeline Lilly is also fantastic showing a wide range of emotions and acting talent. I'm so glad she didn't quit acting. I hope to see more of her. She did a great job in this film and it really showcased her talents. Just please, do something better with her hair. That do was awful.
Both Michael Douglas and Corey Stoll round out this cast very well. Douglas is believable and really nails this role. Stoll is creepy, mad and evil, just like the villain should be. And I have to include a shout out to Michael Pena who is absolutely hilarious in this movie. I've seen him do a range of characters and this one was his funniest yet.
All told, Ant-Man is a fun movie. It's not ground-breaking and it doesn't try to be as big as Avengers but it does its part well. It plays a small role in the Marvel universe and is a fun ride.

Ant-Man was better than I was 'ant-ticipating', it packs a lot of humor, epic set pieces and fun into this fun and surprisingly family friendly (hence the PG rating) since there are some minor violent set pieces) superhero flick.
The casting of Paul Rudd, Michael Douglas and such are all great, with Rudd molding the same path as Chris Pratt and Douglas in top form as always and the supporting cast as well pull it off with ease.
Visual effects and the cinematography are all tops, with making the epic scale of Ant-Man seem so realistic and not taking itself to seriously. The music score by Christophe Beck is great too.
Ant-Man is pure escapism and entertaining throughout, it's bound to win the fans of the MCU and set an exciting path for Phase 3 in 2016.
