This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Ant-Man, dirigida por Peyton Reed, presenta una propuesta refrescante dentro del universo cinematográfico de Marvel, y gran parte de su atractivo radica en sus efectos especiales innovadores. Esta película nos sumerge en un mundo donde la escala se transforma, y los efectos visuales juegan un papel fundamental para llevar esa premisa a la pantalla grande.

Los efectos especiales en Ant-Man son sorprendentes y creativos. La habilidad de cambiar la escala del protagonista, desde el tamaño de un insecto hasta el de un humano, es retratada de manera impresionante. La atención al detalle en cada escena, desde las minúsculas partículas hasta las imponentes vistas aéreas, es un testimonio del trabajo meticuloso realizado por el equipo de efectos visuales.

La secuencia más destacada es la del enfrentamiento final en la habitación de juguetes, donde Ant-Man se enfrenta a su némesis en una batalla épica. La forma en que se utiliza el entorno en miniatura para crear situaciones ingeniosas y emocionantes es un testimonio de la creatividad del equipo de efectos especiales. Los momentos en los que Ant-Man se reduce a un tamaño diminuto y luego regresa a su tamaño normal en medio de la acción añaden un elemento de sorpresa y emoción a las escenas.

Además de los efectos visuales, el diseño de producción en Ant-Man es impresionante. Los escenarios en miniatura, como la maqueta de la casa y el laboratorio, están llenos de detalles encantadores que ayudan a crear un mundo mágico y fascinante. Los efectos de sonido también contribuyen a la inmersión en el mundo de Ant-Man, ya sea a través de los ruidos característicos de los insectos o de los estruendos impactantes cuando cambia de tamaño.

Si bien los efectos especiales son uno de los puntos destacados de Ant-Man, la película también ofrece una historia entretenida y un elenco carismático. Paul Rudd se destaca en el papel de Scott Lang, ofreciendo un equilibrio perfecto entre el humor y el heroísmo. Michael Douglas aporta una presencia madura y convincente como el Dr. Hank Pym, mientras que Evangeline Lilly brinda una actuación sólida como la intrépida Hope van Dyne.

En resumen, Ant-Man es una película que destaca por sus efectos especiales innovadores y creativos. La habilidad de cambiar de escala y la atención al detalle en cada escena son prueba del talento del equipo de efectos visuales. Aunque la película también cuenta con una historia entretenida y un elenco carismático, son los efectos especiales los que elevan la experiencia y hacen que Ant-Man sea una adición interesante al universo de Marvel.… Expand

But after hearing that Ant Man was gonna get a 3rd movie, I decided to prepare myself for it by re-watching the first 2 movies again and I'm glad I did because it's better than I remember. The first thing I can say is that this is a great story that also happens to be perfectly paced preventing me getting bored or falling asleep. The characters are all great, main and side thanks to fantastic writing, remarkable performances, and dare I say, they all look perfect for their roles. Speaking of the main character, thanks to how he's extremely relatable, we're there for him all the way through and want to see him succeed and it's easily all the more satisfying when he does get what he wants. The villain is pretty good and was hinted how he was broken but he was seen as pure evil since money and power can be enough for anyone to want to hurt others. The action and fight scenes are some of the best in the series and the soundscape ensures maximum immersion to leave you hooked onto your seat and fear for the main protagonists life. Finally, the CGI and digital effects to make you feel small are great and leave a lasting impression on you to appreciate your current size. Overall, this movie is a blast all the way through and I'm so glad I re-watched it since the movie didn't really leave a great impression on me as a kid and I can't wait to see the other 2 movies to see how well they hold up.… Expand

Ant-Man. Small and strong. Marvel's newest hero has made a great entry into the MCU, leaving a trail of ants and a battered Falcon in his wake. But in general, the film remains a typical studio project, which is not bad.

ItWhen I first heard about this movie, I skipped it because I assumed it was some kind of a joke/parody (based on the title), but it actually turned out to be a genuinely good superhero movie—up there with Guardians of the Galaxy for me.

It had great characters, emotion, and a decent enough plot as far as Marvel movies go. I was also positively surprised by the action scenes which usually put me to sleep in these kind of movies; in Ant-Man they actually had some kind of choreography and were easy to follow instead of just being mindless gun blasting that serves to pad out the film.

8/10 for this one. Not bad.… Expand

Having enjoyed a vast majority of Marvel's superhero output (more so than most) without worshipping them, 'Ant-Man' is a minor effort from them but there is still a good amount to like about it.

'Ant-Man' manages to be a better film thanHaving enjoyed a vast majority of Marvel's superhero output (more so than most) without worshipping them, 'Ant-Man' is a minor effort from them but there is still a good amount to like about it.

'Ant-Man' manages to be a better film than expected. The character is not exactly a household name and is always tossed aside in favour of other superhero characters like Spiderman that have had longer longevity and perhaps have more compelling origins and stories, hence why they are adapted more. Also wasn't sure what to make of the trailer, which made the film out to be rather bland and too reliant on humour.

Seeing it for myself finally a year on, 'Ant-Man' could have been better. While the humour mostly works wonders, there are a few instances where it's not so funny and not very well placed, like in emotional scenes that are actually quite poignant and then interrupted by a joke that is not only forced and unfunny but also not belonging in the scene. The family scenes are a mixed bag, sometimes they are sweet and touching while at other times they're a little flat and predictable, contributing towards a few rare dull stretches. Corey Stoll also goes through the motions as the rather generic and under-characterised villain.

On the other hand, 'Ant-Man' is a great looking film, it's beautifully shot, very atmospheric, is very slick and the special effects, mostly the rapid size-changing and with the ants, are clever and of the usual high-quality Marvel standards. The music avoids being over-bearing, one-note, too quirky or too bombastic, fitting well tone, mood and pace-wise. Direction is more than competent, keeping the story going at a solid pace and the telling of it interesting enough, though maybe a little more flavour may have been more welcome. While the action is not as much as most Marvel films, it is fun, thrilling, nicely choreographed and tautly shot and edited, especially towards the end. Admittedly there are a couple of cheesy parts towards the end too, but kind of in an endearing rather than jarring way and it doesn't jar with the rest of the film.

There is some very smart and hugely entertaining scripting and dialogue here in 'Ant-Man' too. While it doesn't work completely seamlessly, 'Ant-Man' is one of Marvel's generally consistently funniest films, and the film doesn't take itself too seriously or too much of a joke either, instead not being afraid to embrace the silliness and humour while ensuring still that the subject matter is treated with respect. It is especially good with the title character's deadpan quips and Luis' fast-talking patter. The story is mostly diverting, it's narratively simpler than most Marvel outings and less risks here are taken than most Marvel films but it always makes sense, moments of dullness and jarring are few (while not being completely absent either), it's fun and it doesn't try to do too much or try to insert too many characters while not playing things too safe either.

While not complex as such, the characters are mostly engaging and are not too one-dimensional, only the villain could have had more done with him. Paul Rudd is a strong and hugely entertaining lead, while Michael Peña's hilarious in a role that could have been really annoying. The seasoned support of Michael Douglas adds hugely too, and Evangeline Lilly gives the film some much needed heart. Anthony Mackie is good too.

Overall, minor Marvel but good Marvel. Well-made and a lot of fun, but there is a personal preference to the Marvel films that took bigger risks with more and often richer characters, bigger bolder action and more going on in the story. 'Ant-Man' executes a vast majority of its components really well indeed, just that Marvel has done even better before and since. 7/10 Bethany Cox… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I found this an amusing watch - it features some decent CGI and amusing plot elements - I wouldn't say it takes itself too seriously, thankfully as I'm not entirely keen on such superhero type films. This was categorised as an action comedy film, so I thought I'd give it a watch when it was on TV and I found it entertaining enough. I tried to second guess what might happen in the plot and there were one or two plot twists. Of course, like most superhero type films, it has the underdog element to it - it is a bit cheesy I suppose but I found it entertaining regardless.

Michael Douglas playing the doctor (Dr, Hank Pym) with some less than commendable goals in mind did well in being the main villainous type character, or certainly at first. I'm not sure if I've seen him play many such characters but he did well as the scheming type I'd say. Meanwhile, the main character of local criminal, average joy type Scott Lang is played by Paul Rudd and he also gave a pretty decent performance as a confused yet enthusiastic type. He does seem clueless and if I were in his shoes, I can understand why!.

I thought it was quite an engrossing film for a Marvel superhero type film - it reminded me a little of the early 1990s 'Honey I Shrunk The Kids films', only with better special effeects, for obvious reasons. I suppose its a bit (I said a bit!) like a sanitised kid friendly version of The Fly, in a sense, only the character becomes an ant, rather than a fly, obviously.

Its not a bad watch - not greatly memorable but not boring and with decent visual effects, I'd say this is a cautious 4 star watch overall. Its a little cheesy and possibly somewhat predictable but its an easy, light watch, which is not necessarily a bad thing.

Would I recommend it? if you like these sorts of films then yes. As a straight comedy film? no, not really. I wouldn't say its an all out action film as such either, although there are some decent scenes featuring action - its primarily a comic book/superhero film, with one or two morals in it but its not shoved down your throat too much. Hopefully this is enough to help you judge whether its worth you seeing it or not.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. After recovering from a shaky scene after the credits, Ant-Man becomes a mostly enjoyable film, led by a strong and charming performance from Paul Rudd. His charisma and chemistry with the other characters carries a lot of scenes and injects some funny moments into the film. This is a (fittingly) small scale heist movie with big repercussions that actually works, and shows that Marvel is expanding its comfort zone in terms of genres. The action is decent but it doesn’t quite live up to the standards set by other MCU installments. Anthony Mackie is nicely worked into the story and is a welcome appearance in the film, and his presence allows the movie to be connected to the Avengers franchise without spending too much time on the connection. With that said, the writing and directing are both a bit awkward at times which disrupts the flow of some scenes and just makes them feel a bit weird. The actors do their best to overcome this when it happens and are successful at times, and Peyton Reed does his best as well. Without Paul Rudd, this movie doesn’t work, since he brings, as mentioned above, charm and charisma to this movie that it badly needed and allows it work in many instances where it otherwise wouldn’t. While Ant-Man doesn’t set any gold standards for future Marvel movies, it does way better than it could’ve and is an interesting piece of genre deviation for the MCU.… Expand

When I had heard of Ant-Man for the first time, I couldn't stop laughing. I was imagining Plankton from Spongebob Squarepants in a supervillain costume saying something like "I am the Ant-Man and I will crush you all!". So of course you canWhen I had heard of Ant-Man for the first time, I couldn't stop laughing. I was imagining Plankton from Spongebob Squarepants in a supervillain costume saying something like "I am the Ant-Man and I will crush you all!". So of course you can assume that I didn't know anything about Ant-Man. Rather I was more leaned towards being critical of the movie and the character himself. Later the movie came, I saw he wasn't what I was expecting him to be, and then I was like, "Okay fine, whatever.". I hadn't watched MCU movies until Infinity War was announced, after which I started bingewatching all the movies. And when it was the turn to watch Ant-Man, I was a bit skeptical. I watched it with a "Fine, I'll just skim through it like Thor movies.", but it was genuinely so good that I couldn't help but praise it.

Ant-Man is a movie, in my opinion, that has taken the Marvel Cinematic Universe into the comedy genre that we know today. It doesn't have those cheap jokes like Age of Ultron, nor the subtle humour like Iron Man movies, but rather it was a complete slapstick comedy that was actually done right. And unlike most superhero comedy movies where the protagonist alone carries the entire sense of humour on his/her own shoulders, in this one it is distributed among all the otehr characters - Scott, Hank, all of Scott's friends, Hope and even Falcon (Ant-Man visits the Avengers HQ in one scene when everyone was out and Falcon happens to catch him).

After this movie I learnt about what Ant-Man is about. Apparently both Scott and Hank were Ant-Men in two different eras of the comics. And there are many revelations of Hank being Ant-Man, which is why he has had PTSD about taking the suit again. He is also able to teach Scott how to become Ant-Man on that very basis. Ant-Man's entire training procedure is a bit boring, but occasionally turned interesting because of the exposition. I never thought I'd ever say this, but the exposition scenes of this movie are actually very interesting.

The final fight scene of this movie was also very nice. Every time they would show a very intense action scene going on but then cut to real life where it'd be a very small thing. Though I don't understand why were they fighting with the toys, since they are stronger when they are small so the toys shouldn't have affected them much. The scene from the helicopter where Ant-Man would turn small to attack them was also interesting in spite of having a plot hole - why weren't they shooting Ant-Man every time he became bigger? And in the end they manage to make an ant giant, something the movie never tells what happened to it.

Speaking of ants, this movie made me see ants very differently. Earlier I just thought them to be miniscule, organised insects who kills bigger and more good looking insects. But now I realised ants actually look pretty cool. We just can't see it because of how small they are, but if we were to tame an ant (for that matter a swarm of them), we could probably use them as a wonderful ally. This movie could be great to tell children how important and interesting ants are. They would probably like them more.

Ant-Man is one of the more forgettable movies from the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It serves as a character origin story and is very fun to watch, but now as I write the review 2.5 years later, I have literally no memory of the movie except the scenes I mentioned (and Scott's wife seeing some other man and Ant-Man falling on Stan Lee's car). So I'd definitely give it another watch some day.… Expand

If Edgar Wright stayed at the project it would be much better. It was fun but standard nothing groundbreaking nothing awful.… Expand

The Action is a little more entertaining and the story does make more sense why it is existing and happening. Scott Lang in this Movie is also better. He isn't stupid he does actually some pretty smart thing while still being Funny. For the second Movie the writers dumped him down for comedic purpose. The jokes are still funny but whe saw it already better. The reason why they did it so the wasp can more shine. They did the character right but on the other hand they compleaty forgot Ant-Man. You have more reason to actually care in Ant-man than in Ant-man and the Wasp. Look, and caring in a Movie is important part for the enjoyment. After all this is really an underrated Movie.… Expand

Ant-Man

Reed's comic book film is more like a high budget-ed season finale of a sitcom. There is levity in its body language that seems God gifted. While the actual reason is, of course, co-writers like Edgar Wright and Adam McKay and Paul Rudd himself, along with the director Peyton Reed whose previous project has been of such genre. And yes, as far as the film cares for the joke, the punch line, it is of course difficult to beat this chapter, I think it would even surpass the second Iron Man. But there is always so much they can give in on humor, especially with a banner as big as of Marvel whose film evidently goes to places where not the average one does. And packing this mixture of diverse genre is where this Christmas gift goes wrong.

There are so many moments where you can see the lack of awareness between the screen time and the script, for instance, after Rudd finally manages to conjure the art of commanding an army of ants, the family drama that is ensued seems out of place, maybe the director's cut has the answer for it. The now-ripped Rudd fits right into the role from self-created quirkiness to how-to-train on a training montage, his carefree attitude still cracks me up.

But only until, Michael Pena hadn't arrive with a referential talk that he does so casually, his inevitability on not-evolving as a character is the best arc to it. Speaking of evolution, Evangeline Lilly never gets to experience that nor does Michael Douglas, in that case, their family drama despite of the past they have been through, seems monotonous and poorly crafted. Ant-Man is not a title nor a concept that would convince you to barge in on their heist, but once you do, your lazy bones would go stronger and you'd know that the film had succeeded in its entirety.… Expand

Unfortunately the first hour and a half of the movie is just the same old boring talking heads and men in suits that we see in so many MCU movies. The humor was an odd style for Marvel and I felt like I was being ping-ponged between an overlong Key and Peele sketch and a Ben Stiller comedy movie. In fact, Ant's actor reminds me of Ben Stiller so much that I think this is the sole reason for the effect, and that's unfortunate. If this movie had been made with a little more heart and soul as to Ant-Man's motivations and his relationship with his family I think it could've been something really special, but alas, it was just another 2 hour CGI and joke fest like most of the MCU. The formula is running dry and needs something to spice it up. This film tried to go from the heist comedy angle and just felt like something old that I've seen plenty of times in other movies that did it better. I'm trying to watch all of the MCU in preparation for Endgame and I don't know how I'm gonna watch Ant-man and The Wasp after this. Hopefully it is less boring than this one. One other thing, I know these movies are based on more fleshed-out stories in the comics, but that's no excuse to just have characters suddenly and spontaneously make out and have a stupid predictable romance that has zero foreshadowing in the film and is only expected because it's what Marvel does. It happens to nearly every single MCU hero at some point and I'm totally sick of it.… Expand

Paul Rudd normally provides an assured performance but this proved to be an exception. I am so confused at what point this movie went so disastrously wrong. The biggest failure of this movie is not its concept and not (for the most part) the deliverance or performances, but rather the script. For every cheesy one liner was met with a sigh and eye roll. If your movie relies on poorly scripted, draining, and uninspiring one liners to make it engaging, you need to scrap that draft and start again. That is genuinely what I think should have happened, they should have started again, introduced more contemporary/original comedy, discovered a new plot, and re-casted for some characters. I will give credit where credit is due. It does take a unique kind of skill to make a large budget seem so cheap. The source material was unique I guess.… Expand

The movie is paced a bit too slow in the third act as well but it isn't all too bad. The ending fight sequence is hilarious and awesomeness at the same time.

It's one of my favorite characters in Marvel Comics, and it finally has a movie, and it was as i expected.. disappointed me in some points, but as a whole movie, it's so charming!

I found it boring sometimes, because of the slow-telling. I really believe that if they just got attention for some points they totally just let it go in the movie and the comics, it would have been the best MCU movie of all time.

The cast is super-funny together, but once again the creators didn't gave them the chance to unleash their entire sense of humor... But it stills a funny movie though.

The story is rich, but not that rich I wanted as I said up there. But the story STILL has a very powerful concept that I truly enjoyed!

The performance was really talented and amazing, the cast gave me a great movie with their acting, especially Paul Rudd as Scott Lang/Ant-Man.

The CGI was not really good, it was fine actually.

So as a result, Ant-Man gives me a great time watching it, entertained at everytime I watch.… Expand

After watching Guardians of the Galaxy which I thought was great, and Avengers Age of Ultron which was alright, I was starting to think that maybe these Marvel films are finally starting to get better. But now they made this thing to not have me too excited for the future.

The film starts and the first thing that throws me off a bit is how awful it looks. Just terrible colors, bad lighting, bland. We're introduced to Hank Pym who created the Ant-Man suit, and the villain of the film who in typical Marvel fashion was a very bad uninteresting villain. And also Scott Lang who's the main character. Hank Pym and Scott Lang were both alright but I didn't really care about them during this film. Paul Rudd as an actor shows promise though. I liked him. The first 20 to 30 minutes were basically setup. It takes a lot of time before Scott finally decides to do a break-in and find the Ant-Man suit. Interestingly the movie felt the need to set up the villain a lot longer which was pretty weird.

So it basically takes 30 minutes for anything fun to start happening. The break-in scene was pretty good and neatly edited and Scott testing out the suit was also pretty cool but didn't last very long. Hank training Scott was decent, but the movie kept going back to the villain who was s*it. The thing with these origin stories is that you know there's never really gonna be any cool superhero stuff where the superhero would know what they're doing until like the climax of the film. That's not necessarily a bad thing. Iron Man is a great example of how to do an origin story right. This movie's not. This movie's just decent to below decent after the novelty wears off. I did not feel like I was watching a movie from the same studio that made the first Avengers and I definitely didn't think I was watching a set up movie that's literally adding this character to the Avengers too. This film was painfully uninteresting, generic and looked way cheaper than the other Marvel films from the second phase at least. Having a more original backstory definitely would've helped and investing more time in to the writing and effects would've probably made this feel more like a film that belongs in this Marvel universe.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This review was previously posted on my blog, so apologies if bits don't make sense on another site!

Recently, I’ve been watching the MCU films again. This is mostly due to the run-up to Avengers 3. I haven’t felt the need to do reviews for most of them, but since my last post was semi-related to this film, I thought I might as well review it.

As mentioned in my previous post, Edgar Wright was briefly involved in this film. As a fan of his work, this naturally elevates the film for me. While I can’t know exactly what the director was involved with, you can still clearly see his fingerprints on the finished product. The editing is also brilliant at times, keeping the pacing of the film quick. A great soundtrack is present, and some comedy moments actually work, unlike my usual experience with recent Marvel movies. Unfortunately, the OST is a disappointment. This seems to be a frequent problem with most Marvel films. Can you, dear reader, remember an original song from a Marvel film? The only one people seem to be consistent with is the Avengers theme, which is rather odd; you have a cast of such varied and unique characters, and the music could really reflect that. Instead, songs feel like they could be taken from one film and added to another, and nobody would notice a difference.

The cinematography is decent enough. There’s rarely anything mind-blowing. Most of the highlights come from various jokes relating to the ever-changing size of the protagonist. Sharp cuts to reveal how mediocre the events occurring actually are happen frequently, and almost always to great effect.

The dialogue was middling. The film falls into a painful trap, where the mentor character dumps a full scene of exposition onto our uneducated protagonist. It’s rather frustrating given the fact that most viewers have already pieced the plot together. We don’t need a recap. Also, there’s various moments where lines are clumsily delivered. I don’t know it’s that’s due to the actors or the writers, but regardless, parts simply don’t work.

The actors in this film are also interesting. There’s very few poor performances, but at the same time, the writing can often let people down. Evangeline Lily is probably the most consistent of the performers, and Corey Stoll (ignoring the dodgy dialogue and poor writing) is perfectly fine as our antagonist.

Also, rather oddly, the film seems to slip between originality and cliches rather easily. Ant-Man relishes in the standard scenes of a ‘shrunken person’ film, with small things being scarier, almost being stepped on and apocalyptic baths all being present. At the same time, however, moments are peculiarly mature. The protagonist isn’t much of a hero. He’s a convicted criminal who’s just gotten out of jail. His partner has separated from him, and found a new lover, who is now acting as the father figure for their child. When I first watched the film, I expected it to end with Scott Lang (Paul Rudd)’s wife realising she really loves our protagonist, and has done all along. They’d get back together, and Scott would get full custody of his child again etc. Instead, it takes a far more mature route, and Scott finds a romantic interest of his own, while still remaining on good terms with his previous partner and her new lover.

Typically, the film has quite a few random issues. There’s a jarring absence of blood, despite characters being shot. There’s also moments where it’s clear we’re meant to be feeling some sort of emotion (and perhaps I’m just a sociopath) but I felt little to nothing at the ‘sad moments’. Also, the villain is simply awful. Again, however, this is annoyingly common with Marvel movies. Still, was a villainous Jeff Bezos the best they had to offer?

The film is ultimately bland, but perfectly serviceable. It’s an incredibly average Marvel movie, with depressing glimpses of real inspiration. I’ll give it a 6/10. If you’re a Marvel fan who’s yet to watch it, and are curious as to how important it is to the overarching MCU plot, I imagine you can skip it. The next film in the series, Captain America: Civil War does feature elements of this film, but it’s not really mandatory viewing. Still, if you have the time, there are worse ways to spend it.… Expand

It is an entertaining superhero story with great, laugh-out-loud humor, and pretty good, well-acted characters. The main character and his Mexican friend are especially entertaining. The plot and concept of changing-size works really well in this movie. When people talk about great Marvel movies, they seem to leave out Ant-Man from the conversion, and it really annoys me because I really like this movie.… Expand

Una muy buena película, super disfrutable para ver una y otra vez. El protagonista lo hace genial y Ant-Man es un personaje excelente. Ansioso por verlo más en el MCU.

The movie really shines in its set pieces, which are visually inventive and add an interesting new fold to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Overall, it's a middling entry in the franchise, but we're talking about a franchise that doesn't have any awful movies. You could do a whole lot worse with a couple hours of your time.… Expand
