MY REVIEW
So, in all honesty, I was prepared for this to be a "sequel." you know, where the first one was decent and the second is passable...(Ant-Man, my review from July 2015). It wasn't bad. It was actually pretty funny in some spots. It just wan't THAT great. I never found myself rooting for the hero/heores. Ant-Man is a very typical anti-hero with him being an ex-con and just kind of passable in most areas.
What I DID LIKE about this movie:
- It was fun. Plenty of one-liners and moments that are pretty amusing, not enough to make me laugh out loud though.
What I DID NOT LIKE about this movie:
- Could the writers have added a few more words? It's like they just re-used the word QUANTUM to further the plot. I mean it was like 46 times!
- Pacing could have been smoother.
- Maybe one too many jokes. It felt a little overwhelming with stuff that you were supposed to find funny.
On a more personal note.....
