#Index of ant man and the wasp 2018 movie#
I feel the movie played it a tad safe and didn't meet its potential. What that means is I consider it a good film, it's just not exactly groundbreaking stuff. Our new villian delivered more than I'd ever expected, Pfeiffer was a great addition and Pena managed to annoy me less than usual! The first movie got a solid 7/10 from me and this sequel is recieving the same. Rudd, Lilly and Douglas are excellent once again and the story is fantastic though I think much of the impact of some of the story is highly lacking.
Antman 2 delivers, it does just not to the extent I hoped. I didn't see the appeal in Dr Strange and thought that Black Panther was one of the most overrated movies in the history of the industry. Regarding the previous films I've enjoyed them all with the exception of two. With every cast member both big and small returning a fantastic villian and the one and only Laurence Fishburne, the stars were aligning for another fantastic addition to the universe. Truth be told I found myself really hyped for the second movie, more than any other (Except GotG). A heavily comedic character is was heavy on charm, humour and elevated by a fantastic charm. I love what Marvel have done in the creation of their "Universe" it's an overwhelming triumph and despite my fears they managed to slot Antman in there perfectly back in 2015.
