Marvel’sAnt-Man 3Receives Disappointing Reviews From Critics
Meanwhile, the much-anticipatedAnt-Man and the Wasp: Quantumaniafrom Marvel Studios is already receiving mixed reviews from critics and fans. Almost everyone agrees that Majors delivered his villain role with much confidence, and he has proved that Kang the Conqueror is indeed a force to be reckoned with.
The critics’ reception towardsAnt-Man 3proved less impressive, often noting the underdeveloped plot and Majors’ character not being fleshed out to reveal his true motives. The number of interweaving stories among Marvel films has become so incredible that every installment seemed like an introduction for the next film.
Brandon Zachary ofCBRnoted thatAnt-Man 3was “a fun ride at times and by no means the worst MCU film,” while Jon Negroni ofInBetweenDraftssaid, “If only they had just focused on making an Ant-Man movie. Not a redux of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2.” Most critic reviews seem disappointed with Marvel’s take on the thirdAnt-Manfilm.
Despite the mixed reviews, fans are still encouraged to see the film and meet the next big bad of the MCU.Ant-Man 3stars Paul Rudd, Evangeline Lilly, Kathryn Newton, Michelle Pfeiffer, Michael Douglas, Randall Park, and Bill Murray.
Creed IIIwill arrive in theatres on July 08, 2025.
