The very first responses to Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania remain in. So, is Phase 5 of the MCU off to a strong start, or is the 3rd Ant-Man outing another middling Marvel effort? Well, it definitely seems like the previous, with these early responses calling Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania Marvel’s Star Wars and stating it the very best installation because Avengers: Endgame.
PHASE 5 HAS BEGUN! The new #AntMan movie is like a psychedelic rollercoaster full of frightening & hilarious oddities, plus one VERY menacing Kang. Big STAR WARS vibes meet the MCU at its freakiest & most inventive. MODOK is a riot, but Jonathan Majors conquers. Loved the ride! pic.twitter.com/gdJqHld3rT

So #AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania is indeed Ant-Man doing Star Wars on acid. A little creaky at the start, it turns into a nutty, utterly fun (inner) space opera. It's easy to see why Jonathan Majors was the choice for the new big bad. Kang is ferocious.

#AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania is basically Peyton Reed’s unproduced Star Wars film, but you know, with Ant-Man.

So, #AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania is as close as Marvel has gotten to a Star Wars movie, with little bits of a Rick and Morty feel. Not all of it works, but the hints of what’s to come with Kang have me mostly intrigued. Jonathan Majors is solid, with Kathryn Newton best in show. pic.twitter.com/uyrVUaQmFR

The best Star Wars movie since 2018 is #AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania. It’s a huge sci-fi adventure with gorgeous world building that feels almost little un-Marvel in how much world building there is. But it’s got humor, heart, Kang completely rules & Michelle Pfeiffer steals it. pic.twitter.com/vRO2Poko2s

Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania formally begins Phase 5 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and discovers superhero partners Scott Lang and Hope Van Dyne going back to continue their experiences as Ant-Man and theWasp Together with Hope’s moms and dads Hank Pym and Janet Van Dyne, the household discovers themselves checking out the Quantum Realm, engaging with unusual brand-new animals, and starting an experience that will press them beyond the limitations of what they believed was possible. And it seems like it presses those limitations with much success …
Peyton Reed’s #AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania is the best MCU has delivered since #AvengersEndgame
The film is a psychedelic roller coaster through the quantum realm that delivers moments of laughs, tears, bone crunching action and heart as the film raises the stakes pic.twitter.com/CthkkMmaQj

ANT-MAN AND THE WASP QUANTUMANIA is a VISUAL FEAST packed w/ SURPRISES (big & small). A WILD RIDE from start to finish.

Had a blast with #AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania Paul Rudd has never been better & Jonathan Majors effortlessly conquers every second of screen-time he gets, BUT the real star of the film is Jeff Loveness’ script: a reminder of how beautifully strange & mysterious the MCU still is. pic.twitter.com/MYoL6WPlmU

Jonathan Majors as Kang is Hailed the Best Marvel Supervillain of All Time
A great deal of the appreciation directed at Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania has actually been sent out towards Loki and Lovecraft Country star Jonathan Majors as Kang theConqueror The star, who has actually ended up being a seriously hot home in Hollywood in a really brief area of time, is all set to be the next huge bad of the MCU, and will fight The Avengers in 2025’s Avengers:The Kang Dynasty And based upon these responses, he is more than approximately the difficulty.

#AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania is a solid, yet overly ambitious start to the next phase of the MCU. Jonathan Majors is an absolute FORCE as #Kang and the NEW KING of the Multiverse. The final battle is ASTONISHING, but I really missed the comedic charm throughout. #AntMan pic.twitter.com/NRj3fzjCKa

KANG is the best comic book movie villain EVER. Jonathan Majors will be nominated for Best Supporting Actor at Oscars 2024, with a very solid chance of winning. His performance is LEGENDARY. He truly is a conqueror.

Jonathan Majors is a force in #AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania. He’s compelling, chilling, and already giving a top notch performance. I love the complexity he brings to Kang with literally a single look. MCU really won with this casting pic.twitter.com/4W8VCLGFBv

While there are some criticisms focused on Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, with some critics regreting the loss of humor and finding that the Ant-Man threequel can not stay up to date with its own aspiration, in general, the responses are extremely favorable. Which need to bode well for both Phase 5 and the intro of the brand-new bad guy.
#Quantumania risks its frivolity to a dramatic comedy that visually resembles Spy Kids. Although the movie lacks the charisma of the first installments, the conflict finally moves the Multiverse saga, highlighting Jonathan Majors as a fearsome Kang. #socialreaction pic.twitter.com/VaOlbNAp7S

There comes a point where every franchise has to get weird, and the MCU has done just that with #AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania. Like all his other roles, Jonathan Majors remains endlessly compelling. 👍👍 pic.twitter.com/cxWEcoKTze

I think my favorite part of #AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania was the dynamic between Scott and Cassie. Every time he calls her “peanut,” I just kind of want to cry. Please make 10 more one-shots just of him catching up on her birthdays. pic.twitter.com/CJYPfropRy

#AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania is a splendid visual feast. The best of the @AntMan movies, complete w/ humor, heart & the tie in to the Kang Dynasty we’ve been waiting for. #jonathanmajors is on fire & #kathrynnewton is baller in her marvel debut. Feb 17 can’t come soon enough. pic.twitter.com/3nKfRSIpJQ

#AntManandTheWaspQuantumania was awesome! Visually it was insane and the story is great but, KANG! Jonathon Majors stole the show for me. The best Ant Man film yet for me! An exciting ride for Marvel fans and the POST CREDIT SCENE will make you jump out of your chair!
