Rudd’s Scott Lang is just as endearing as ever with his range of emotions and wit. No one knows what a subatomic space looks like except for the electrical activity in the backgrounds, but it takes time to adjust your expectations and the actors do their part to keep you focused on the character’s plight. The amount of CGI work is impressive, but the backgrounds are really busy with activity and creatures, some of which look like they stepped off a STAR WARS or STAR TREK set.Īnother issue is that the new setting of the Quantum Realm is too similar to outer space rather than a subatomic set. That storyline pays off in QUANTUMANIA, but the viewer is literally in an all-new world which at first is jarring. The two prior ANT-MAN movies are the most grounded movies out of all the MCU films with practical sets based in the real world and the core of the story belonging to Scott Lang’s quest to be the best father to Cassie. The entire family share in the heroic moments Avenger-style. Paul Rudd, Evangeline Lilly, Michael Douglas and Michelle Pfeiffer return with a teenaged Cassie now played by newcomer Kathryn Newton. Trapped, the gang encounters Kang the Conquerer who wants something from Scott. The Lang and Pym/Van Dyne family are sucked into the Quantum Realm in ANT-MAN AND THE WASP: QUANTUMANIA where a population of strange creatures inhabits the subatomic level in space and time. Thankfully Paul Rudd carries the movie as the heart of the story but Michelle Pfeiffer and Jonathan Majors steal the show. The sequel is one part STAR WARS and the other part GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY due to the heavy CGI work. ANT-MAN AND THE WASP: QUANTUMANIA is the busiest movie of this Marvel trilogy with tons of distracting CGI environments.
