Ant-Man and the Wasp

— The first “Ant-Man” was one of my favorite Marvel films and this one continues in the same vein with an unlikely superhero whose good heart makes up for any ineptitude. The story’s a little far-fetched but the low-key humor and focus on family give it a warmth that doesn’t come when gods are saving the universe in most other Marvel films! There’s still a good mix of action with the comedy and drama, and you don’t have to try to figure out what the heck the Quantum Realm really is, just go with the flow. For a summer blockbuster, there is probably less action than, say, an “Avengers” flick, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t good. I liked it.
