Way better than "Infinity War". Michael Pena's part is excellent. I liked Walter Coggins and the other X-Cons as well. The action scenes were fun. The "science" was hilariously dumb, which was probably unavoidable. The actress who played the ghost is one I've never seen before, but she is promising.
Not bad, but this just felt like a unnecessary add on to an already bloated Marvel Cinematic Universe. There are some parts I did enjoy about the movie and story, so a solid 3/5 stars. It's a shame what happened with the actor who played Kang the Conqueror because I would have loved to see him again.
It's mostly a park your brain movie where Ant-Man and the Wasp fall into a quantum world along with their parents and Ant-Man's Daughter who has been exploring some of the details about the miniature world they can inhabit sometimes. She's also got a suit. Some of what happened in the past come back to haunt them and some of what happens here is put up for sequel bait.
Full of different creatures and a variety of people it's interesting to see the different characters come into their own.

I liked this, witty characters, trying to deal with the aftermath of being put under house arrest by the FBI, Scott is recruited (with days to go) to help find Dr Hank Pyms wife, lost in the microscopic universe, while trying to deal with a rival who wants to kill him (hello Dutch as the Ghost, doing a fine job). There were times when it dragged a bit but overall it was a lot of fun.

Watch until the very very end. The events of the Avengers: Infinity War have a repercussion here.
