Ant-Man and the Wasp

Paul Rudd and Evangeline Lilly stars as a Mr. and Mrs. Smith action duo that has the feel of a Saturday morning cartoon.  In fact, the whole movie is very Scooby-Doo like, from riding around in various vans to the droll parental figures of Michael Douglas and Michelle Pfeiffer (welcome back!).

Picking up from Captain America:  Civil War, Ant-Man/Scott is on house arrest from his missteps.  But temptation is too great and he steps out to held Dr. Pym/Michael Douglas and The Wasp/Hope recapture the shrunken laboratory and battle some random new bad boys and girls.

Some nice settings in San Francisco, a great town for making movies (Vertigo, Bullitt, Dirty Harry).  Evangeline Lilly holds her own as a female superhero and Paul Rudd is just a lot of fun to watch in almost anything.  Also starring Lawrence Fishburne, Walton Goggin, Michael Pena, T.I., Hannah John-Kamen... and David Dastmalchian!
