Marvel's "Ant-Man" is a fun and exciting superhero movie that stands out from the rest of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) with its unique shrinking and growing abilities. Directed by Peyton Reed, the movie follows ex-con Scott Lang (Paul Rudd) as he becomes the new Ant-Man, a superhero with the power to shrink to the size of an ant while increasing his strength. Lang is recruited by the original Ant-Man, Dr. Hank Pym (Michael Douglas), to help stop his former protege, Darren Cross (Corey Stoll), from using Pym's technology for evil purposes.
The movie's cast is fantastic, with Paul Rudd's wit and charm making him a great fit for the role of Scott Lang. Michael Douglas also brings depth and gravitas to the film as Dr. Pym, while Evangeline Lilly is excellent as Pym's daughter and Lang's love interest, Hope van Dyne. The movie's villain, Darren Cross, is suitably menacing, and his motivations are believable and well-developed.
One of the highlights of "Ant-Man" is its action scenes, which are a thrill to watch as Ant-Man shrinks down and battles enemies in creative and innovative ways. The film also includes plenty of humor, with Paul Rudd's comedic timing and the supporting cast's jokes providing some much-needed levity in between the action.
Overall, "Ant-Man" is a well-crafted superhero movie that is worth watching for its unique concept, great cast, exciting action scenes, and humor. While it may not have the same level of epic scope as other MCU movies, it still stands out as a great addition to the franchise and a fun standalone movie in its own right.
"Ant-Man" was first released in the United States on July 17, 2015.
