I still have not watched a single Marvel movie or TV show since Far From Home and I am still not going to until X-Men.

Not boycotting because I have all the movies.

I am boycotting every Disney+ series until they release a physical copy though.

I might actually buy one of those bootleg blu ray copies of them out of spite.

this getting lukewarm reviews

 

Honestly, if it wasn't for Kang, I'm not sure what the point of a 3rd Ant-man movie would be (yes I get Cassie has a clear connection to MCU's future, but that could be brought in other vehicles, too).    I'll go but with low expectations other than to advance the Kang storyline.

Great visuals.  
 

Good intro to Kang as a threat.  
 

Decent character exposition for both Kang and Cassie.  Otherwise - nothing awful like Dr. Stranger’s treatment of Wanda or Eternal’s slow as molasses pacing - but it’s a pretty by-the-book story.   
 

Without spoiling - Kang’s development in phase 5 is going to be the decider on how this is viewed.    He’s set up to be the Big Bad (duh) - but he doesn’t do anything yet to really earn the fear.    Obv those who’ve read the comics know more is coming - but it doesn’t really earn much wow factor yet.    I will say Majors is awesome as Kang though - so the potential payoff is there - just we don’t get much now.    
 

I get why it’s needed - but it’s hard to say this is a memorable movie as a result.   It’s so very clearly a stepping stone it’s hard to get excited about it as a stand-alone movie.
