Not many people will agree with me, but I consider this a top 10 MCU film.

This turned out to be a lot cooler than I thought. Shrinking may not be my first choice of superpowers, but I can see it's usefulness

I never expected to see an Ant Man on the big screen but I'm glad to experience the film because Paul Rudd is definitely a so cool, funny, lovable actor to play Scott Lang aka The Ant Man, Overall, Great reaction to this awesome 2015 Marvel film Emme.

Paul Rudd was a brilliant choice in casting. He fits the role like Ryan Reynolds fits Deadpool or RDJ fits Iron Man; it's impossible to imagine anyone else playing the role. Casting is one of the many areas where Marvel killed it. Kevin Feige is ridiculous. One of the defining producers of this era in film.

"please don't get arrested" is the greatest line to close the episode! Thank you.

Great reaction! Ant-Man is one of my top three Marvel movies because unlike the repetitive preventing the end of the world storylines that start becoming more and more prominent in the Avengers and associated movies, Ant-Man is a more localized movie about a good guy who ended up in a bad situation and is trying to make things right. His main motivation in this movie is being able to see his daughter again, which makes it a redemption story for him and also for others in the movie, and that was such a nice change from everything go boom. I also really liked that Paxton wasn't really a major jerk but a guy who really cares about his fiancee and her daughter too. It made him much more interesting and real. Little Cassie was awesome too.

"I kinda' want a pocket lamb?" I had to pause. Fortunately, I wasn't drinking a beverage. Too funny. YES! I want a "Pocket Barnyard." Milking that cow is gonna take some skill.

It's hilarious that Luis is whistling Disney's "It's a Small World After All" before knocking out the guard boss.

The line Hope says at the end "It's about damned time." is a reference to the fact that Ant-Man (Hank Pym) and Wasp (Janet Van Dyne) were in the original Avengers team when it formed in the comics, so a lot of people have been wondering why there was no Ant-Man or Wasp yet.

Hi Emme ... as a much much older guy (could maybe be your grandfather) it is fantastic to see your pure joy and enthusiasm. I really love your videos, keep up the good work ... btw imho the best is yet to come

The reason he is so good at what he does, he was an engineer before he was a burglar. Probably a mechanical engineer.

One of the best things about this movie, is that Paxton is not "conveinently" wiped out during the story. And he's not a bad guy. He's a cop, but just trying to do the right thing, and deeply suspicious of Scott, because, well, let's face it, Scott was a *_thief._* At the end of the movie, Paxton may not particularly like Scott, but he realizes Scott isn't a bad guy, and that he means the world the Cassie, and they come to a kind of truce. For Cassie. They're still just people. Both parents. Both doing what they can.

Can I just say, "It's a FUNCTIONAL tank" is the best accidental cover for an F-Bomb I've ever heard.

Pocket lamb made me laugh way more then it should have. Thanks for sharing.

Cant complain really, how many of us in the 80's as kids and young adults knew the actors in movies from the 40-50s for the most part... outside of the few really famous ones still kicking around at the time like Jimmy Stewart etc, Alot of us oldies would know Douglas from movies like Romancing the Stone, Basic Instinct and Wall Street etc and those movies are getting pretty old now while his latter films are the kind of ones the younger generation wouldn't really watch. While I often scoff at the reaction video trend, i will give it credit for getting younger people, content makers and viewers alike to see movies and actors they'd otherwise not typically have contact with if ever.

Age of Ultron was more or less the end of Phase 2. Think of it as sort of an epilogue

I was almost in tears when Hank broke down to tell the story of his wife... but then Emme took me out of it 🙂😀 just kidding 😆 lol (I would like to join Patreon if it has full length uncut reactions 🤔 looking up while thinking emoji)

The only problem I have with this film is that it perpetuates the lie that father's have to pay to spend time with their children. Unless there's physical violence involved a Mother cannot withhold visitation rights. Which in CA, those back payments would have been removed from his check by the state from any job he works, until it's paid. In fact, the only way he can skip automatic payments, is by doing illegal work. My ex kept my son from me with that lie for a long time due to her new abusive boyfriend. I lost too many years and have spent everything to move near him. Glad that things finally worked out in the end and we have a great relationship as he's 18.

Hank's wife isn't trapped in the missile, she's trapped in the place Scott went and came back from.

Loved your reaction! Saying Scott is "like Iron Man, but nice" is an apt description I hadn't considered, so thanks for that :)

Really love your marvel reactions :3

"I like when things take place where I've lived."

But one time I came across a film that had scenes in the town where I worked in New Jersey, and I, too, got irrationally elated. Fellow movie theater patrons were not amused...

Hi Emme!🙂You should watch "Honey I Shrunk the Kids" (1989) sometime to get you to like ants more. Fun Fact: The deaged Michael Douglas at the beginning of the film looks like he did when he was in a buddy cop TV series in the 70's called "The Streets of San Franciso", except he had longer hair. Yep, there is a TV show that was shot in San Francisco. Great reactions to yout first Ant-Man film, Emme!!!🎬👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

we got the van

First: Thank you for this reaction . Second: Recommend teh following filmed in San Francisco movies Bullitt (1968), The Maltese Falcon (1941), Dark Passage (1947) and the Dirty Harry (Clint Eastwood) series of movies.

This one is hilarious!

Fun fact: Scott in the comics actually wanted to steal the suit and Hank actually initially didn't want anybody to steal his suit, and Scott actually was able to use the suit's power to am acceptable degree without Hank's training. Also, The Yellowjacket was originally Hank.

This movie is fun. I hated the villian Darren Cross the second they introduced him. I guess that means actor Corey Stoll did a good job. Emme your personality is so adorable and endearing.

The guy from "Up"! 😂 Reference "Romancing the Stone". You young ladies call it a rom-com that has a lot of action adventure. We old farts call it a funny action adventure that happens to have a romantic interest

Just saying, ants are very clean animals. The oils and saliva they use to protect their body of course dries up after they're done cleaning themselves. Sorry, but it was kind of awkward hearing you say "ew" and "no thanks" when the ants brought the sugar. Ants are annoying, but they're clean.

Hey, Emme! "Ant-Man" surprised everybody! Despite Hank Pym being one of the five Founding Avengers in the comics, not even readers were clamoring for a movie version of the tiny hero. MCU fans were intrigued but wary especially after Edgar Wright dropped out as director over creative differences. Finally, everyone just decided to trust in Kevin Feige's grand design and did it ever pay off! The result was a spectacular superhero adventure with just the right mix of action, humor and heart! In the comics, Hank Pym's Ant-Man may have co-founded the Avengers with his partner Janet van Dyne aka Wasp, Iron Man, Thor and Hulk but his history with the team is a troubled one. He never felt his power set measured up to the other heavy hitters, he kept changing his identity with his size, he had difficulty reconciling his passion for pure research with an adventuring lifestyle, he had marital trouble with Wasp, he suffered a mental breakdown and, worst of all, he created Ultron! Tony Stark creates the killer A.I. in the MCU but Ultron is Pym's baby in the comics. Pym is actually happy to pass the mantle to Scott Lang when he comes thieving along in "Marvel Premiere" # 47 which this film is based on. Lang takes to the superhero lifestyle and his relationship with his daughter Cassie is as depicted on-screen. Pym settled into a sort of emeritus position as tactical support and gadgeteer for the West Coast Avengers simply calling himself Dr. Pym which is similar to his function in the movie. Although he and Janet never had a child, he had an illegitimate daughter called Nadia he never knew about until she was an adult which mirrors Hope's estranged relationship with Hank in the film despite Nadia's very different personality in the comics. Peyton Reed had directed a couple of successful comedies called "Yes Man" with Jim Carrey and "The Break-Up" with Vince Vaughn but had no experience with an effects-heavy blockbuster. You wouldn't know that from the end result which comes across as smooth and polished. In a departure from the New York-centric MCU, the setting shifts to San Francisco showcasing the West Coast city nicely. The script achieves a perfect balance of comedy, sentiment and thrills but also, crucially, gets the audience past any entomophobia it might have by making the hero's ant allies palatable. Differentiating the three species showcased proves to be fascinating and personalizes the little critters. Shrinking as a story gimmick is as old as "Alice in Wonderland" and has been iconically portrayed in films like "The Incredible Shrinking Man", "The Fantastic Voyage" and "Honey, I Shrunk the Kids!" but the size reduction sequences in "Ant-Man" are truly wondrous and imaginative! Scott's first adventure throughout his apartment complex is a memorably dizzying odyssey. A hilariously clever motif is utilized that contrasts titanic insect-size drama with its insignificance when perceived on a human scale. However, it is with the introduction of the Quantum Realm where the film distinguishes itself. Known as the Microverse in the comics, the sub-atomic level of reality is represented as kaleidoscopic geometry and echoing stillness where the rules of normal physics don't apply. The latter is as true in our world as it is in the MCU. The cast is great led by Paul Rudd as Scott Lang aka Ant-Man whose long list of comedic credits and unassuming good looks make him an affable lead. In yet another remarkable casting coup for Marvel, a post-cancer Michael Douglas was cast as the prickly Dr. Hank Pym, inventor of the Pym Particle and the original Ant-Man who, in the MCU, is a former SHIELD operative prior to becoming a tech magnate. Evangeline Lilly of TV's "Lost" plays his estranged daughter, Hope van Dyne, whose adoption of her mother's maiden name as her surname speaks volumes about family tensions. Corey Stoll brings both pathos and menace to Pym's embittered protege, Darren Cross, whose unstable approximation of the Pym Particle serum fuels the Yellowjacket suit which actually was one of Dr. Pym's monikers in the comics. The supporting cast includes Judy Greer as Scott's ex-wife, Maggie Lang, Abby Ryder Fortson as the adorable Cassie Lang and future Young Avenger Stature, Bobby Cannavale as Cassie's stepfather-to-be, Detective Paxton, and Wood Harris as his partner, Detective Gale. Adding comic relief are Michael Pena as Luis, David Dastmalchian as Kurt and T.I.P. as Dave playing Scott's ex-con buddies with Pena's grapevine monologues making him a stand-out. In the secondary villain role is Martin Donovan as Hydra representative and former SHIELD honcho Mitchell Carson who links the current proceedings with Dr. Pym's SHIELD past in a prologue that features Hayley Atwell as Peggy Carter and John Slattery as elder Howard Stark. The digital de-aging done to make Michael Douglas look like his '80's self in that prologue is nothing short of incredible! Anthony Mackie as Sam Wilson aka Falcon makes a surprise appearance that puts Scott on the Avengers' radar. In bit parts are Gregg Turkington as Dale the Baskin Robbins manager, Joe Chrest as Frank the skeptical Pym Tech executive, Jean Louisa Kelly as a Pym Tech employee who remarks on the founder's presence in the lobby, Anna Akana as a guerrilla journalist and Garrett Morris of "SNL" as a cab driver. TRIVIA: 1. The Pym residence was the same house used for exterior shots of Halliwell Manor in TV's "Charmed". 2. The enlarged tank from Hank's keychain was a functional Soviet T-34-85 given as a goodwill gift to the US by Premier Mikhail Gorbachev in 1991. 3. The rights holders to Thomas the Tank Engine had a number of specific stipulations before permitting use of the character such as not having Thomas run down anyone tied to the tracks! EASTER EGGS: 1. During Scott's escape from prison astride Antony's back, he flits through a trolley briefly alighting on a commuter's newspaper whose headline reads "Who's to blame for Sokovia?" which references the events of "Age of Ultron" and presages the events of "Civil War". 2. During his presentation, Cross jokes that reports of an ant-sized operative sounded like pulp fiction that would appear in magazines with names like "Tales to Astonish" which is actually the name of the anthology comic Ant-Man's adventures first appeared in before he graduated to his own title. 3. Scott and Luis share an apartment in the Milgrom Hotel named after comic book artist Al Milgrom. 4. When guerrilla journalist Anna Akana tells Falcon he has to specify who he's seeking because she has information on people with various abilities including one 'who crawls up the walls', she is making the MCU's first reference to Spider-Man! CAMEOS: 1. Garrett Morris' cameo as the driver of the cab Scott lands on after his first time using the suit is a tribute to Morris' portrayal of Ant-Man on a 1979 "Saturday Night Live" sketch called 'Superhero Party' which was the character's first live-action appearance! 2. Stan Lee appears as a bartender in Luis' closing grapevine monologue commenting on Anna Akana's good looks. END-CREDIT SCENES: 1. Dr. Pym shows Hope an unfinished upgrade to the Wasp suit he and his wife, Janet, were designing when they were working for SHIELD. He proposes that he and Hope finish the suit together so that she can make use of it which she agrees to enthusiastically. 2. The second end-credit scene is an excerpt from "Captain America: Civil War" that has Falcon and Cap debating what to do with a captive Bucky. The next chronological stop in the MCU are Episodes 1-19 of Season 3 of "Agents of SHIELD".

Pretty sure Dr. Pym _and_ Cross were lying about how Pym particles work as an extra layer of security or secrecy, since Scott's weight and mass clearly change during his "test run." (Also pretty sure Pym was remotely controlling the suit's functions at that time.)

I am a fan of this film.
