Nice introduction to Phase 5

Warning: Spoilers
Beign the third installment to the Ant-Man (and the Wasp) franchise I went in having an idea what to expect. Something a little light, tone-wise, but with Kang being introduced I also knew the levity would be moved aside for the weight of the story. All previous characters were pretty close to the previous story's portrayal. Michelle Pfeiffer's role was expanded, which she did great with. Kathryn Newton's Cassie Lang filled the role nicely as well, but not quite the same charm as Rudd.

I knew that it would be CGI heavy but I felt that made it slightly harder to digest what was going on. Most locations and characters were full of CGI - not that that's a bad thing, but it really made it hard to tell what was happening at time.

The story was pretty good. It took a while for it to get to the crux of the problems, but it was a fun ride to get there. . I would have liked a little more backstory on the main villain, but I'm sure we will get more of that as Phase 5 continues.

Overall, if you enjoyed the other Ant-Man movies and know that the tone will start getting a little darker, you will enjoy this movie. Just don't expect it to be Civil War or Infinity War.
