Movie Synopsis:
In “Ant-Man and The Wasp,” Scott Lang is grappling with the consequences of his choices, as both the Super Hero Ant-Man and a father, in the aftermath of “Captain America: Civil War.” As he struggles to rebalance his home life with his responsibilities as Ant-Man, he’s confronted by Hope van Dyne and Dr. Hank Pym with an urgent new mission to rescue Janet van Dyne from the Quantum Realm. Scott must once again put on the suit and learn to fight alongside The Wasp, all while attempting to serve house arrest, assist fast talking-Luis (Michael Peña) and the X-con Security crew, and thwart the efforts of a new adversary called Ghost (Hannah John-Kamen) and her ally Bill Foster (Laurence Fishburne).

Our Thoughts:
This movie was much needed following the aftermath of Thanos' wrath in Infinity War and in the opening act of the movie, which has a lot of set up and catching up, we learn just what everyone has been up to and why Scott was MIA in Infinity War. The plot of Ant-Man and The Wasp turns on a dangling plot thread from the first Ant-Man film, mainly the possibility that Hank’s wife and Hope’s mother, Janet, is still alive in the Quantum Realm, having been presumed lost there many years earlier during a mission with her husband. The three main leads, who have become estranged after the events of "Civil War", are now forced by events to reunite on a mission to rescue Janet, but they are soon being pursued by two different sets of villains with two very different agendas with the common goal of obtaining Pym’s technology for their own use. Also factor in Scott being under house arrest by the FBI and you can see how they have to break in and out of various tight spots as the movie's plot unfolds! We really loved the movie - the plot, characters and even the special effects! And don't forget that there is a mid credit scene, and the elephant in the room when it starts is Infinity War and the consequences of Thanos’s victory; suffice to say that this scene delivers on its promise and leaves Scott in a most precarious situation, one that may be resolved in the next Avengers film!
