Movie Review: ***^Ant Man and the Wasp (2018)

The Ant and the Wasp (2018)  Except for the graphics representing the sub atomic world, (looks like a Doctor Who promotion) this movie is very good.  There is lots of play with tiny vehicles, which look like match box toys but blow up very large.  Ant Man is portrayed by Paul Rudd.  His non-ant character is under house arrest for using his powers without authorization.  During much of the movie and ant takes over his life, sleeping, playing the drum, taking baths etc.  The wasp is portrayed by Evangeline Lilly.  She and her father (Michael Douglas) are trying to rescue their mother (Michelle Pfeiffer) who has been in the subatomic world for many years.  There is cute play on staying out of jail while actually using superpowers to complete the rescue.  In addition there are two groups of people trying to get the equipment from them.  A group of thugs and a couple people, Dr. Bill Foster (Laurence Fishburne) and Ghost (Hannah John-Kamen), hoping the equipment will help restore Ghost from a half-life due to contact with sub-atomic particles.  This movie makes for a very exciting ride.
