Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania - World of Fun
Thoughts On: Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania (2023)
Ant-Man and his family are pulled deep into the quantum world to discover a treacherous new universe.
Pretty entertaining - and that's all I have ever hoped for in a Marvel movie. None of them are great, none of them are cinematic masterpieces; some are more fun, some quite clever, quite a few are for the dogs, but Quantumania sits up there as one of the better structured and most visually stunning Marvel movies out there. Characterisation remains strong with the theme of family holding the Ant-Man thread together pretty well alongside the unserious, highly likeable tone. The world building - some of the best in the universe - surpasses the plotting, which maintains investment and keeps the familiar narrative arc fresh and engaging. Would I seek this out to re-watch - no. But this is a cinema-worthy superhero film that provides a highly captivating first-time viewing experience no doubt. And though I cannot say I am eager for it, the Kang arc that seems to be due to proceed the Thanos one seems slightly legitimate. Better than Captain Marvel for sure.
