The protagonist Scott of "Ant-Man" is not born with magical powers like Superman, nor does he have his own technological kingdom like Iron Man. He has experienced a transformation from a small character to a superhero. Once an engineer, he went to jail for theft and lost his lover and cute daughter. After he was released from prison, he couldn't find a job. Because he wanted to get together with his daughter, he was designed to return to his old business and embarked on the road of a new generation of heroes. For the audience, this kind of role substitution is very strong, and with the personality charm that Paul Luther gives to the role, it is hard not to like this role. The first generation of Ant-Man Hank Pym played by the old drama bone Michael Douglas is also very exciting, and his scheming tricks when teasing Scott and the emotional drama with his daughter are very stable.
Although the film is still full of tense save the world plot and wonderful action scenes, the overall feeling is more like a careful family comedy. In order to change his image in his daughter's heart, Scott decided to change his hands and wash his hands after he was released from prison, but in order to pay for his daughter's alimony and put himself in danger. Fortunately, he finally defeated the villain in front of his daughter and became The hero in her daughter's heart. Pim is one of the smartest people in the Marvel world. He uses the "Pim particles" he invented to transform into an ant-man that can grow and shrink, and save the world with his wife, Wasp. Pim was obsessed with research and tasks. After his wife disappeared due to the task, he desperately devoted himself to searching, ignoring the daughter who had also suffered family changes and needed the comfort of the father, and the father and daughter turned against each other. Even so, Pim would rather let his daughter misunderstand, and never agree to let his daughter take the slightest risk and choose to train Scott to complete this extremely risky task. Fortunately, Scott, who is also a father, understood Pim, enlightened Hope, and worked hard to face the challenge together.
The fighting in "Ant-Man" is extremely imaginative, and the switching between Ant-Man's perspective and that of ordinary people is unique. Especially the final fight in the toy field adds a bit of absurd childishness. The balance between fun and shock is difficult to grasp. For viewers who are used to watching the devastating scenes of Marvel movies, they may feel that the excitement is insufficient. But as Dr. Pim said in the film, his Ant-Man suit is not a fancy thing like Stark’s iron suit. Although the latter is more visually impactful, it is driven by Pim particles. It is to bring people into an unprecedented new field. As a result of scientific research, Pim particles can be said to have a certain mythological color. After Scott has been frequently reduced, the method of taking the core components of the enemy’s equipment is the same as the Monkey King in "Journey to the West". How similar is the evil taste in the stomach. As for Scott being brought into the micro world at the end, it gives mankind a chance to discover the mysteries of time and space in one fell swoop. Just like when the original poster was young, he often thought, the outside of our earth is the universe, what is the outside of the universe? Could our universe be just an insignificant thing the size of an ant in the eyes of other beings? Watching American blockbusters often brings surprises that people can only imagine and can't do.
"Ant-Man" is the last film in the second stage of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and "Captain America: Civil War" will be the opening of the third stage. In "Ant-Man", there are many connections with the Avengers. When Scott suggested to Hank Pim that they should invite the reunion to deal with Darren Cross, Pim replied: They are busy throwing the city from the sky, echoing the story of the reunion 2. The new headquarters of the Avengers that appeared at the end of "Avengers 2: Age of Ultron" appeared in "Ant-Man", where Ant-Man and Falcon met. There are two easter eggs at the end of the film. The first one is about the Wasp, which is related to the sequel "Ant-Man and the Wasp", and the second is Captain America, Falcon and Bucky, which will be linked to "Captain America 3". :civil war". Let us look forward to what a visual feast this is!
