Forced out of his own company by former protégé Darren Cross, Dr. Hank Pym recruits the talents of Scott Lang, a master thief just released from prison. Lang becomes Ant-Man, trained by Pym and armed with a suit that allows him to shrink in size, possess superhuman strength and control an army of ants. The miniature hero must use his new skills to prevent Cross, also known as Yellowjacket, from perfecting the same technology and using it as a weapon for evil.

Critics Consensus

Led by a charming performance from Paul Rudd, Ant-Man offers Marvel thrills on an appropriately smaller scale -- albeit not as smoothly as its most successful predecessors.

Despite its absurd romantic storyline, and creepy crawlers, Ant-Man is a superhero film worth seeing. I don't think I've laughed so hard in any other Marvel film.

Ant-Man is a surprisingly nimble, enjoyable origin story with a little-guy-saves-the-day quality that will particularly appeal to younger viewers.

Is Ant-Man worth seeing? (As if my answer matters; like all Marvel movies, it'll make a mint.) Sort of.

Ant-Man is another successful MCU origin story. Primary mission accomplished: fantastic casting for a significantly developed superhero and his future sidekick.

This is a superhero film as a caper comedy adventure and that’s part of the charm. There’s a lack of bombast and epic scale, refreshing in a genre that keeps trying to top itself.

3/5

“Ant-Man” is an easy movie to digest. It dabbles in promising areas and has its share of fun scenes and cool visual effects. But it also squanders a lot of its potential by traveling down well-worn and overused paths.

Probably the most innovative film in the series. It's a good story and has lots of fun. By series I mean MCU. In the antverse, it's also the best of the three.
