Directed by Peyton Reed1h 59m2018

Just when his time under house arrest is about to end, Scott Lang once again puts his freedom at risk to help Hope van Dyne and Dr. Hank Pym dive into the quantum realm and try to accomplish, against time and any chance of success, a very dangerous rescue mission.

Our read: Ant-Man and the Wasp (2018) reads as a neutral, breathless, surreal action · adventure · sci-fi entry — extreme in intensity, epic-stakes in scope, measured in temperature, ambivalent in outlook.
