8 / 10

Ant-Man and the Wasp (2018)

8 / 10

2015’s "Ant-Man" provided audiences a lighter mood that helped to soften the blow of the largely serious "Avengers: Age of Ultron". It also acted as a backdoor introduction to "Captain America: Civil War", a film in which Paul Rudd’s Scott Lan... Read the full review »

Ant-Man and the Wasp (2018)

Ant-Man and the Wasp shrinks so far down that it in itself becomes pointless. What I can only describe as the biggest disappointment of the year thus far, this entry into Marvel's epic cinematic universe is possibly their weakest yet. In this chap... Read the full review »
