Ant Man & the Wasp (2018)

I wasn't planning on watching Ant Man & the Wasp today. I was going to see a matinee at the mop, then maybe see something at the mall later. But not Ant Man. I mean, I hadn't even seen the first movie, so why would I see this one? Why?!?!?!

Two words. Paul. Rudd.

I love that guy. I read an interview with him in the Sunday times, and thought, "you know, I should watch the first movie." And so I did. And I really enjoyed it. So I thought, tonight I'd watch the sequel. And I enjoyed it, too. Like the first one, it's funny and has some great action sequences. It's a perfect summer popcorn flick. Not too long. Not too serious. It's just a fun movie. Plus, its the first Marvel movie to give a female hero a movie. I mean, technically. (although Rudd still has top billing in the credits) It is called Ant Man and the Wasp, and Wasp (Evangeline Lilly) kicks a lot of ass in this movie. Plus Michael Pena steals all his scenes, just like in the first one. The villain is an angry stereotypical "bad things happened and now I want revenge type", which is unfortunate, but, that's my only gripe. It's a fun popcorn flick.
