Movie Reviews
That's enough Marvel for me...
Ant-Man confirms what many people already know: Marvel doesn't take its audience seriously. This is a movie that attempts to take itself seriously but constantly reminds itself that it needs to dumb down its content and throw in some stupid one-liners/comedy sidekicks in order for its audience to get a good chuckle. Marvel movies aren't meant to make you think, they're meant to make you laugh.
What seems like the thousandth movie in Marvel's series, Ant-Man's basic story is that the hero needs to save the world from the evil villain who wants to take it over. You've never seen that story yet, have you?
The worst part about Ant-Man is that it's a film that could've been great, but insists that it should play it safe and remain mediocre. The shrinking effects and its ubiquitous environments are fun and nice to look at, but the subject matter is nothing new. Just your typical running, fighting, chasing, etc.
Every Marvel movie is the same, the only difference being the location and the hero's superpower. See Ant-Man if you haven't gotten tired of the generic storytelling, cheap jokes, and monotonous fight scenes yet. Avoid it if you're looking for a film that actually challenges your brain and has some sense of originality.
