Seriously? What are you waiting for?
The big question that had been asked prior to the
release of Ant-Man was how was it going to fit into the Marvel Cinematic
Universe. Since the-powers-that-be at MCU failed (in my opinion) to make the connection between worlds with every
movie after the first Avengers, I wondered about that too.
Turns out Michael Douglas's character, Dr. Hank Pym, worked
for shield. Bam! Just like that, we are in the MCU. But the
connections didn't stop there. With Ant-Man, the creators took those few seconds to
show where the movie fits into the universe. And they did it simply and beautifully. I won't give away any spoilers. It’s more fun
if you discover those gems on your own.
What I also loved about Ant-Man, besides the adorable Paul
Rudd and his hysterical Guardians of the Galaxy-like crew members, were the
fight scenes. I swear, it seems as if every superhero movie must destroy at
least a good percentage of the planet. There are only so many scenes of mass
destruction I can take. I don't know if the possibilities presented with having
characters that are smaller to scale than the average human inspired the filmmakers, or if
they just put forth that little bit of energy into providing something new, but we had awesome
fight scenes that went beyond the spectacle
of exploding buildings. From a battle on a toy train to the inside of the
briefcase (Yes, the inside of a briefcase!)
it was fantastic. And my eyes didn't grow tired by trying to separate shrapnel from story telling. J
But don’t take my word about the greatness of this move. Go see Ant-Man. And stay until after the credits roll. Yes, I screamed and my fists
shot into the air victoriously.
Until next time y'all!
