Ant-Man

I had fun with this movie, the 12th installment of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.  Simple clean story, no mind-twisting plot lines.  Dr. Henry Pym (Michael Douglas) mentors well-intentioned cat burglar Scott Lang (Paul Rudd) as the new Ant-Man to protect his shrinking technology from falling into the hands of HYDRA.  As added human drama, Dr. Pym's daughter Hope Van Dyne (Evangeline Lily), reconciles with her father, and in parallel, Scott Lang manages to keep his relationship with his own daughter intact and thriving.  The story deviation from the comic books was easily explained, maybe even enhanced.  Lots of humor and fun moments, interesting stunts and CGI displays; and of course, plenty of action too.  Three cheers for Marvel and Walt Disney!
