Grade: C.Īfter most entries in Phase 4 passed by without doing much to set up the next big bad in the MCU, I was eagerly anticipating this film given it would be the big screen introduction of Kang. I think Kevin Feige and company should go back and see what made these films better when the MCU started. Just average in an MCU that us just churning out film after film with average results. It's never boring but it's just not exciting or engaging.
The only notable performance is Jonathan Majors as Kang the Conqueror but he alone can't save the film from being just painfully average. Even Paul Rudd who is usually very engaging us just flat here. The acting in Quantumania is fine but but again no one to really care about. The two previous Ant-Man films were among the weakest but were still more memorable than this one. Not that every film from Iron Man to Endgame was great but they were mostly at least better than average. I didn't care at all about what I saw in Quantumania. Stakes were there, of course they were lightoments but there were heroes to root for and some pretty good villains. The reason that the MCU was so successful is that the films had characters we cared about. Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania is supposed to start the Phase 5 of this thing and if it goes on like this it's going to get worse!!! This film is of course competently made, looks good and is not horrible but is completely uninspired and like pretty much everything out of the MCE factory since Endgame it's totally forgettable. Not counting the sort of stand alone Spider-Man No Way Home. The last few MCU films have been lackluster at best. Reviewed by flicklover 6 / 10 It's been a while now, but the MCU has really run out of gas.
