Director : Peyton Reed
Running Time : 118 mins
Scott Lang (Rudd) is a professional thief who is tricked into stealing the suit of former superhero Ant-Man, also known as Hank Pym (Douglas). With the new suit that enables the wearer to shrink at will and communicate with insects, Lang and Pym, along with Pym’s daughter Hope (Lilly), team up to stop Darren Cross (Stoll), a man who plans to create his own version of the Ant-Man suit and use it for his own nefarious ends.
This is such a fun movie. Unlike other superhero movies that concentrate on getting to grips with powers or problems with relationships, this jumps right in to the fun part of battling villains. Although the villain is a normal human being with no superpowers (until late in the movie) that doesn’t make it any less dramatic. By casting a comedy actor in the lead – a character who is meant to be a loveable rogue – we have an awesome opportunity to see Paul Rudd play a hero, a romantic lead, and his own comic relief. Granted, Michael Pena does a good job in this role too, but it seems to be the ensemble cast as a whole is what makes this so much fun and so enjoyable.
