Ant-Man and the Wasp

So we return to one of the funniest Marvel heroes of the MCU so far, as Ant-Man gets it's second cinematic release.

I loved the first one for it's "childish" humour (the train sequence!!!) so was curious about this one.

Plot

Scott is serving two years of house arrest following his misadventures with Cap in Germany, and his violations of the Sokovia accords.  He is forbidden to have any contact with Hank or Hope, when he suddenly gets a dream / vision about the original wasp, Janet Van Dyne.

He is soon contacted by Hank and Hope as a result, as apparently it came forth from their experiments to retrieve her from the submolecular realm, which Scott was the only one to ever enter and return from.  Using a rouse, he escapes from his house and joins in a wild chase to get the quantum tunnel ready, while a criminal organisation is trying to get the hardware from the fleeing scientists for their own purposes, and an ex-partner of Hank trying to use it to cure a constantly in flux girl turned vigilante...



What I liked about it

* it explains while Ant-Man wasn't in Infinity War for starters, but it's different from the other ones in that it's not a hero vs villain movie, but a rescue movie instead.
* the cliffhanger credits scene...

What I didn't like about it

* it has some fantastic jokes once again, but in the end just isn't as feel good and relaxed as the first entry unfortunatly.

Not a bad movie at all, but it just isn't as good as the original movie in the MCU.
