I have to be honest here. I did not see Marvel’s ANT-MAN in theaters because, quite simply, it wasn’t an Avengers movie. I kind of pushed ANT-MAN to the side because it didn’t feature Captain America, Thor, or IronMan. Plus it was about a guy who acts like an ant? What kind of premise it that? Well, I am now admitting to the world that I was wrong. Marvel’s ANT-MAN is fantastic! I watched the Digital HD feature film on the DisneyMovies Anywhere app. It was super easy to use. Just type in the code and click “play.” Marvel’s ANT-MAN stars Paul Rudd as Scott Lang/Ant-Man, Michael Douglas as former shield agent Hank Pym, Evangeline Lilly as Hope van Dyne, and Corey Stoll as Darren Cross/Yellow Jacket. Michael Pena is hilarious as Lang’s buddy, Luis–you will love his stories about “a friend of a friend.” As expected in a Marvel movie, ANT-MAN is action packed. It is also funny, fast paced, and may even touch your heart a bit. Paul Rudd seems like perfect casting with his charm and quick wit. You can’t help but cheer for him. Michael Douglas is also amazing as the physicist who created the shrinking technology. The scenes when ANT-MAN shrinks are so fun to watch. I laughed out loud during the Thomas the Train fight scene. The transition between full size and ant size and back again is incredible. I also enjoyed the references to the Avengers and the fight scene with Falcon (Anthony Mackie). Be sure to watch the bonus extras like deleted scenes, commentaries, and the ever popular gag reel. Watching the bonuses can take an entire day. Don’t miss out. This holiday season Marvel’s ANT-MAN is the perfect gift for family and friends. You should also treat yourself to a copy. I guarantee you will look at the ants in your yard in a whole new way!
