In a world of men with spider-like attributes, destructive witches, beer-drinking gods and giant purple Darwinians, not much else could be surprising. Marvel challenged this outlook by announcing Antman and The Wasp: Quantumania, giving an excellent flick to casual fans and advancing the MCU story to those that are Marvel-obsessed.

The film opens with a montage of Antman’s (Paul Rudd) seemingly pleasant life since his big win against Thanos in End Game. Later that day he attends a dinner with The Wasp (Evangeline Lilly), Cassie (Kathryn Newton), Hank (Michael Douglas) and Janet (Michelle Pfeiffer). After having an argument about Cassie’s recent ant-ics, they test out an experimental device that communicates with the Quantum Realm via microscopic satellite. The trial ends when the device malfunctions and sucks the gang into the quantum realm, where they meet Kang The Conqueror: Marvel’s upcoming antagonist.

Kevin Feige and the Marvel organization worked hard to produce a movie that transports viewers into another world while also expanding on plotlines previously introduced in other movies. Quantumania sets the tone for the next phase in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, which makes it a film someone must see to fully understand upcoming titles.
