Well, Disney Marvel has knocked
another one right out of the ballpark with
Ant-Man and the Wasp, a delightful, perfectly paced action-comedy.
As I had hoped, this Ant-Man sequel turns on the fate of the
original Wasp, Janet Van Dyne (Michelle Pfeiffer), who was lost in a subatomic
universe while on a heroic mission decades ago.
The machinery of the plot is kept
well oiled by the witty interplay between the established characters — charming
Scott Lang (Paul Rudd), irascible Hank Pym (Michael Douglas), ever-competent
Hope Pym (Evangeline Lilly) and lovable goofball Luis (Michael Pena). The film
introduces Laurence Fishburne as Bill Foster, a character Marvel fans will
recognize as an earlier incarnation of the superhero Goliath.
The movie has suspense,
size-changing shenanigans, cute ants, a Stan Lee cameo, a ghostly super villain
and a lot of stuff about daughters that brings the story full circle. And surely we all know by that that at
a Disney Marvel movie you must STAY THROUGH THE CREDITS.
