Early Reactions To ‘Ant-Man And The Wasp’ Are Here And Fans Are Digging It

Marvel has been on a roll lately with Thor: Ragnarok, Black Panther, and Avengers: Infinity War in quick succession, and it looks like they’re going to continue that hot streak with Ant-Man And The Wasp. Early reactions from initial press viewings have hit Twitter, and it seems like Marvel has another hit on their hands.

The general consensus emphasized the sheer fun and innovation of the latest Ant-Man outing, as well as the self-contained nature of the film. If you’ve been in a deep, dark depression since Bucky uttered “… Steve” in confusion, Ant-Man And The Wasp might be just the thing to pull you out of it.

What a year for Marvel! Absolutely loved #AntManAndTheWasp. Stellar ensemble and the humor is spot on. (Laughed myself to tears during one sequence!) The tech is used to great effect yet again. Unique, highly entertaining ride I can’t wait to go on again.

I always have some nitpicky, snarky crap to say and I’m coming up empty with #AntManAndTheWasp. It’s a darn blast. I laughed SO much and… pshttt… where there’s a good man, there’s an even better woman pic.twitter.com/nM5aOgkHdz

Had a blast watching #AntManandtheWasp. It’s super funny, which is its greatest charm. Very personal, small scale story (again) and definitely focused on being light and family friendly. Evangeline Lilly is a badass, and Scott’s daughter Cassie steals the show. Also, ants pic.twitter.com/PMAZf94gGa

Just saw #AntManandtheWasp. Does it answer the "#InfinityWar question"

YES.

WOW! #AntManAndTheWasp is a total delight! Funny, inventive, smart and full of great, irresistible energy! The cast is perfect, especially @EvangelineLilly , and the new characters fit in seamlessly. It's got huge stakes, but never loses its smirk or the BIG heart at its center.

Dug the heck out of #AntManAndTheWasp. Clever and charming with lots of heart. It’s a bit exposition heavy, but otherwise a damn delight. One gag had me laughing so hard I was in tears and the post-credits scene is easily one of Marvel’s best.

OMG #AntManAndTheWasp is amazing!!! I loved it so much! I can't wait to see it again. I laughed so hard. Maybe more than Ragnarok… Michael Pena's Luis is HERO.

Just finished #AntManandTheWasp it’s funny AF, great fight scenes and the special FX are off the chain.

Ten minutes into #AntManAndTheWasp Paul Rudd sings karaoke so yeah you better believe it’s my favorite movie of the year

— Rachel Paige (@rachmeetsworld) June 23, 2018

Ant-Man is my favorite Marvel movie. This is the sequel I'd been hoping for. I was grinning from ear to ear from start to finish. Irresistibly good fun. As exciting as it is funny, it locks along nicely and it's visually stunning! #antmanandthewasp pic.twitter.com/7tLSv84ujb

Loved #AntManandTheWasp⁠ ⁠! It was an awesome action-packed thrill ride filled with a lot of humor and heart. Paul Rudd was fantastic as usual. Evangeline Lilly was phenomenal as The Wasp and Hannah John-Kamen was a badass villain! pic.twitter.com/gEJkd3sdAp

A tiny take: #AntManAndTheWasp was a total blast. Romantic, energetic and a lot of fun. @MrPeytonReed left unchained and left to his own devices is glorious and totally bonkers and brilliant. pic.twitter.com/QZ8okR76eG

I loved #AntManAndTheWasp. I don’t think I’ve ever laughed so much in a Marvel movie, though Ragnarok is up there. Nice change of pace from Infinity War. The emsemble is perfect!

There was also a lot of chatter about the importance of the post-credit scenes. Please, please, please be Captain Marvel.

However, it seems like this guy (who previously trolled Twitter with his early Infinity War review tweet) saw… uh… a different cut of the film.

Early reviews like this are a pretty decent gauge for how audiences will react to a film, so consider our interest stoked. For all the talk lately around “superhero fatigue,” Marvel seems bound and determined to keep the fire going. Plus, any movie that features a karaoke singing Paul Rudd is not to be missed. Fingers crossed that he also breaks out some of those signature dance moves.
