Marvel Reviews w/ Rambo - Antman (2015)

 

The concept of the movie and the suit is very cool. The use of the disks to make other objects bigger or smaller is also a fun notion that adds to the power until we end up using it on the Hulk and end up with King Kong on our hands. I think the biggest thing I disliked about this film is that it seemed like we didn't actually have much story to it. The entire plot of the film was revealed in that flashback to the 80s with Howard Stark and the original concept of the suits. Beyond that, it was just a very slow draw out of plotting to steal the technology back before it ended up in the wrong hands. That in itself feels like an overplayed plot, especially with Stark Technologies at the center of the Marvel Universe.

!!! SPOILERS BELOW !!!

• Stark is involved in Ant-Man too?? He just rules the world at this point!
• Why is there Spanish music? I thought the Ant-Man actor was white?
• Ant-Man was a criminal?
• Wait so Ant-Man existed before the super hero Ant-Man?
• The yellow jacket? Like the Wasp? I thought that was the second movie...
• Is this supposed to be an advertisement for why the Yellow Jacket suit is helpful or that it should be destroyed? Because honestly it seems helpful until you realize it can be used against you too. Maybe we shouldn't be making advances for war and instead just work on medical advances to help people live healthy lives.
• Shouldn't they have some type of court order in place that he is allowed to see his daughter on certain days?
• I know the world is seemingly against him but I thought he wanted to do better by his daughter? Why is he falling back on being a criminal again?
• Granted I doubt it would actually work that way but he came off very smart with how he recovered that print from the door knob.
• Isn't it going to be obvious somebody broke into the safe if you drill into it or damage it with the freezing? I thought we wanted it to look like an inside job.
• Y'know, thats a pretty high tech and modern looking suit for it being from the 80s.
• Does pressing the buttons use up the serem in the vials?
• He broke the tile? In that little suit?
• He's just breaking everything! The tile, the vacuum, the glass, the car.
• How did the guy with the suit learn about the new Ant-Man though? Like obviously he plotted him getting the suit but how did he know he existed and would be a good fit for this?
• HE WANTED SCOTT TO STEAL IT!
• How can we be sure they don't have the research baked up somewhere? How can we know that they haven't sold it to somebody else yet?
• So if she has trained for this, why are we so against her being the Ant-Man? Just because she is in too close to the person?
• All of this is happening over a matter of days?
• There was more than one Ant-Man suit?
• Falcon has some good vision huh?
• So if the Avengers have the Yellow Jacket Suit, why haven't they used it?
• And will he get a profit of these 15 million in sales? lol
• That was a very close call with the lasers. The whole thing was a trap to get the original suit though. Sadge.
• "Are we the good guys?" lol
• How DID he get the shrinking tech to work with the tank?
• THIS WAS NEVER JUST A HEIST.
• I love the little bloop of the tiny human hitting and emerging from water.
• Nice hit!
• Going after the kids is always just so messed up.
• Okay but like while he did indeed go smaller than an ant, I would not consider the size he went to at first as molecular because he was still as big as the electronic components. It wasn't until after the Yellow Jacket suit exploded that he went even smaller.
• So who is going to go catch the giant ant?
• And now he is going to spend the rest of his life thinking he can go save his wife by going subatomic.
• NOBODY NOTICES THE GIANT ANT UNDER THE TABLE?
• Literally all that could have just been a text saying that the Falcon was looking for him...
• Wow, somebody is pretty conceited, thinking they deserve the power suit just because they were born into the family. That is like royals assuming they deserve to rule because they are born royal. You should work for it. Not everyone is suited to be a ruler. Just as not everyone is suited to be a superhero.
• That is why he is searching for Ant-Man? To put him inside of the Winter Soldier?
