There are just a few days left until Phase 5 of Marvel officially starts with the premiere of ‘Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania’, also being the first title of the studio in a 2023 that is full of news. In addition, there are a few who have already been able to see it and, as usual in these cases, the first opinions are very positivethere are also several comparisons between this film and Star Wars.
In addition, there is broad unanimity in highlighting the work of Jonathan Majors as Kang, the next great Marvel villain we already met briefly in ‘Loki’. On the other hand, many of the actors are highlighted individually, which suggests that there will be something to hold on to for any type of viewer.
In general, ‘Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania’ has been liked a lot, but there are also some small drawbacks that suggest that it takes a while to start up or that everything it proposes simply doesn’t work. All in all, it sounds like a return to that Marvel that Phase 4 of this superhero universe left a little to one side. Next, I leave you a review of some of the most outstanding comments about her:
The first impressions that ‘Ant-Man 3’ has left
SW, #AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania is as close as Marvel has gotten to a Star Wars movie, with little bits of a Rick and Morty feel. Not all of it works, but the hints of what’s to come with Kang have me mostly intrigued. Jonathan Majors is solid, with Kathryn Newton best in show. pic.twitter.com/uyrVUaQmFR

It’s the closest Marvel has come to a Star Wars movie, with little ‘Rick and Morty’ touches. Not everything works out, but the hints of what’s to come with Kang have me intrigued. Jonathan Majors is solid, and Kathryn Newton is the best in the show.
The best Star Wars movie since 2018 is #AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania. It’s a huge sci-fi adventure with gorgeous world building that feels almost little un-Marvel in how much world building there is. But it’s got humor, heart, Kang completely rules & Michelle Pfeiffer steals it. pic.twitter.com/vRO2Poko2s

SW #AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania is indeed Ant-Man doing Star Wars on acid. A little creaky at the start, it turns into a nutty, utterly fun (inner) space opera. It’s easy to see why Jonathan Majors was the choice for the new big bad. Kang is fierce.

It’s Ant-Man doing Star Wars over the top. A little creaky at first, it turns into a wacky and absolutely hilarious (interior) space opera. It’s easy to understand why Jonathan Majors was chosen as the new villain. Kang is fierce.
PHASE 5 YOU HAVE BEGUN! The new #AntMan movie is like a psychedelic rollercoaster full of frightening & hilarious oddities, plus one VERY menacing Kang. Big STAR WARS vibes meet the MCU at its freakiest & most inventive. MODOK is a riot, but Jonathan Majors conquers. Loved the ride! pic.twitter.com/gdJqHld3rT

PHASE 5 HAS BEGUN! The new Ant Man movie is like a psychedelic roller coaster full of scary and hilarious weirdness, plus a VERY menacing Kang. Big STAR WARS vibes meet the MCU in the freakiest, most inventive version of it. MODOK is in a riot, but Jonathan Majors conquers. I loved the trip.
Had an absolute blast watching #AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania. Creative, irresistibly energetic and filled with some great action sequences. Welcome Jonathan Majors-such a bad ass. The effects are superb. pic.twitter.com/KdVB7qvl2E

I’ve had a great time watching it. Creative, irresistibly energetic and full of great action sequences. Welcome Jonathan Majors, you badass. The effects are magnificent.
#AntMan was good. Not excellent and not terrible. The story worked but the plot had a few holes.
Mix of Journey to Center of Earth/Land of the Lost/Star Wars.
Key is going into it (and MCU films, in general) not expecting it to be Infinity War.#Kang is gonna be tons of fun. pic.twitter.com/MvZXN8TQCM

It was ok. Neither excellent nor terrible. The story worked but the plot had some holes. Mix of ‘Journey to the Center of the Earth’, ‘The World of the Lost’ and ‘Star Wars’. The key is to go into it (and the MCU movies, in general) without expecting it to be Infinity War. Kang is going to be a lot of fun.
Had a blast with #AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania Paul Rudd has never been better & Jonathan Majors effortlessly conquers every second of screen-time he gets, BUT the real star of the film is Jeff Loveness’ script: a reminder of how beautifully strange & mysterious the MCU still is. pic.twitter.com/MYoL6WPlmU

I had a great time. Paul Rudd has never looked better and Jonathan Majors effortlessly conquers every screen second he gets, BUT the real star of the film is Jeff Loveness’ script: a wonderfully strange and mysterious reminder of how the MCU remains.
#AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania is great start for Marvel’s Phase 5 and it’s well received after the bittersweet Phase 4. Best film of the #antman trilogy. I disliked #Mordok a lot but I loved every scene of Jonathan Majors as #KangTheConqueror. It has 2 post-credits scenes. 😎✌️ pic.twitter.com/ICQSiqpDUS

After a frustratingly rough act 1, #AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania finally gets going, only to end where this story should’ve begun. While the external stakes are clear & weighty, emotional drive felt slight (and levity even lighter). That said, Jonathan Majors rules. pic.twitter.com/qpZeKTgdUd

After a frustratingly rough first act, he finally gets going, only to end where this story should have begun. While the outside stakes are clear and weighty, the emotional drive felt light (and the lightness even lighter). That being said, Jonathan Majors rocks it.
I remind you that ‘Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania’ will be released exclusively in theaters next February 17th.
