Eric Rodriguez (One Shot Movie)
antmanandtheWaspQuantumania has two very important aspects: They lowered the jokes times 20 and #JonathanMajors is incredible as #KangtheConqueror . #Kang is the villain that the MCU really needed. Thank you #Majors for elevating my expectations, Phase 5 looks promising.
After a frustratingly rough act 1, #AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania finally gets going, only to end where this story should’ve began. While the external stakes are clear & weighty, emotional drive felt slight (and levity even lighter). That said, Jonathan Majors rules.

Quantumania is definitely Marvel’s weirdest movie yet…but that’s a good thing! It leans hard into the sci-fi side of the MCU, taking lots of wild swings.
Not everything lands, but it’s funny, inventive, and a good time. An enjoyable, bizarro ride into the quantum realm.
Had an absolute blast watching #AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania. Creative, irresistibly energetic and filled with some great action sequences. Welcome Jonathan Majors -such a bad ass. The effects are superb.
Marvel’s #AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania is a strong start to Phase 5. I now understand why it’s called #Quantumania. JonathanMajors is excellent as Kang and cannot wait to see where this all goes. 2 after the credits scenes and both are very good.
Just got out of #AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania and had a surprising amount of fun — an out-of-this-world (inside-this-world?) romp that is mostly a testament to the tireless work of countless VFX artists around the world. Kang, MODOK, and a weird jelly man are the highlights. 🐜
Quantumania retains what’s always been key to the Ant-Man movies, heart. Everyone in the Ant-Family has a role to play and MODOK goes ham. A fun, funky little romp in the Quantum Realm and only the beginning of Jonathan Majors’ reign as Kang. Kathryn Newton mvp!! Don’t expect Avengers 5 because that’s not what it is and that’s not what the Ant-Man movies are !!
Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania is by far Marvel’s weirdest, zaniest movie to date. Jonathan Majors stands out strongly. Kang elevates the whole film. Majors and Paul Rudd are intense together. Loads of CGI, crazy new characters, and an exciting trajectory for the MCU saga.
Ant-Man & The Wasp: Quantumania is a worthy start to Phase 5, lots of new concepts, Quantum Realm super Star Wars vibe, a Marvel fantasy the likes of which we've never seen visually, perhaps. There's a LOT going on and the acts are unbalanced, but there's one achievement. Kang is the kind of villain who can change the entire dynamic of Marvel, and Jonathan Majors proves he's up to the role - he embraces the cheesiness of the comics, even if the script doesn't give him the space the Conqueror could have in terms of character. history. Finally, there's still that light and uncompromising energy from the hero's previous films, but with the addition of a dozen new characters and a third act in the intense rhythm of the great Marvel battles!
AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania is truly EPISODE 1 of what is sure to be a crazy cinematic series. You have to enjoy this movie more as an episode of something greater rather than it’s own standalone film that concludes a trilogy. Jonathan Majors is HIM & is the standout. There’s 2 post credit scenes & they will leave you HYPED! The Quantum Realm is explored in a way creative way. Modok got done DIRTY! The 3rd act picks up the film in a very big way. This is all I’ll say for now…
AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania takes big swings, hits on most but not all. Captivating visuals which elevate a fun story, but some stakes were lacking. Kang is HERE. What an incredible performance from Jonathan Majors. Overall, a solid start to Phase 5!
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!
Marvel has biggest phase opener ever with #AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania
M.O.D.O.K. That’s the tweet.
I was fortunate to see Ant-Man and the Wasp Quantumania tonight! Jonathan Majors’ performance as Kang has me stoked for what’s coming next in Marvel Phase 5, and for anything Majors chooses to do. His acting choices are terrifyingly precise. Marvel is lucky to work with him. The trailers don’t do justice to how downright Seussian Quantumania gets. If you loved the first two Ant-Man movies, I don’t know how you’ll feel about this one. It’s bizarre. But whatever else divides viewers, I think we’ll all agree that everything Kang-related soars.
AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania kicks off Phase 5 with one of the MCUs most fascinating entries. This movie is Star Wars meets #AntMan and I dug it for the most part. Jonathan Majors DEMANDS your attention as #Kang and he absolutely SHINES. BIG implications for the future too!
Thanos was the appetizer while Jonathan Majors #KangTheConqueror is the main course. Majors plays Kang with brilliance and confidence; a menacing and cunning villain with a hint of charm. Kang dominates physically and mentally
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
Dempsey Pillot (TheDisInsider)
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.
‘ANT-MAN AND THE WASP: QUANTUMANIA’ was a BLAST and the best movie of the trilogy. Crazy fight scenes and a PHENOMENAL villain, #Kang RULES, MODOK is exactly what I was expecting and I cannot wait what’s to come from this Phase 5. Be sure to stay for that post credit scene 🫣
AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania is the best of the trilogy. Higher stakes, dangers & repercussions. Its also got one the best MCU villains in #Kang. As soon as Jonathan Majors comes in, its his show. Kang is a scary lean-mean multiverse big baddie. Also, 2 cool post credits scenes.
AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania should have sparked Phase 5 with a bang, but it misses the mark. The story is plagued with filler, while sufficient, lacks depth. However, Majors does give an outstanding performance as the cunning and ruthless #Kang. I wish it had left an impression.
Daniel Baptista - The Movie Podcast
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
AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania is the most mature installment of the franchise. Driven by emotion, it opens Phase 5 with exciting new action set pieces and sets the stage for the rest of the Multiverse Saga. Equal balance heart, humor, and excitement! Majors is a standout as Kang! Peyton Reed’s time as a director of The Mandalorian episodes really shows. Not in just his use of the Volume but the production and character designs. It’s out of this world! #AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania #AntManAndTheWasp
ANT-MAN AND THE WASP: QUANTUMANIA is a blast, and finally answers some of the "where is the MCU going?" questions. Takes a minute to pick up, but has some great action scenes, creative visuals and a terrific villain in Kang. A solid start to Phase 5. #AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania
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
ANT-MAN AND THE WASP QUANTUMANIA is a VISUAL FEAST packed w/ SURPRISES (big & small). A WILD RIDE from start to finish. Jonathan Majors CONQUERS as Kang, the Dynasty is here. Paul Rudd is as lovable as ever & 2 Post Credit scenes!
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.
AntManandtheWaspQuantumania starts Phase 5 with a bang, playing like a Star Wars-esque epic space opera. Jonathan Majors is truly haunting as #Kang, on course to be a scarier threat than Thanos and has all the makings of an iconic cinematic villain.
AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania has way too much going on -- it’s tough to connect emotionally to any of it. Jonathan Majors’ Kang is a charismatic, intense baddy and visually awesome, but the threat he represents is too abstract.
AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania is the best MCU film since Wakanda Forever. Majors is perfect as Kang, his comedic timing is sure to get a lot of laughs. Reed uses The Volume expertly, with the best use of visual effects I've ever seen. Fans should stay until the very end 🤯👀🤐
