(at around 50 mins) When Hope and Scott are practicing punches, Hope (Evangeline Lilly) says that her mother died in a plane crash. Previously, Lilly was a principle character in the TV series Lost (2004), which ran for 6 seasons and ended in 2010. The story begins with a plane crash. See more »
Goofs
(at around 1h 28 mins) While Scott Lang performs acrobatics on the muzzle and slide of a semi-automatic gun, the gun fires. The slide should move backward very quickly then forward at a slower rate. The entire firearm and the agent's grip/hands should move due to recoil. Neither the slide nor the firearm moves when it is discharged, the gun and slide remain relatively motionless and they provide a stable platform upon which Lang runs. See more »

Hank Pym:
Stark!
Howard Stark:
He doesn't seem happy. Hello, Hank. You're supposed to be in Moscow.
Hank Pym:
I took a detour... Through your defense lab.

Peggy Carter:
Tell me that isn't what I think it is.
Hank Pym:
That depends if you think it's a poor attempt to replicate my work. Even for this group, that takes nerve.
Mitchell Carson:
You were instructed to go to Russia. May I remind you, Dr. Pym, that you're a soldier...

I went into this flick not expecting much. I'm not an Ant Man fan so I was not waiting in anticipation for this as much as I wanted to see Age of Ultron.
The character that Paul Rudd plays in this movie is not the Ant Man I wanted to see, and Micheal Douglas' role as Hank Pym, the original Ant man only made me want to see him dawn the suit even more, cause Micheal Douglas was everything a superhero should be in this movie, Charming, really good dialog, and ready for action.
Overall, Ant Man surprised me. It was one of the more unique superhero movies out. Ant Man did things far beyond just punching and kicking that a lot of superheroes are doing on the big screen and went places no other super hero could go making for an action packed adventure. As cool as Ant Man was when he was regular size beating up the bad guys, was as good as when he was shrunken, riding and controlling ants in a world only he can go to.
The villain Darren Cross was actually pretty good too. Not as good as Loki, but just as psycho.
Once again, not an Ant Man fan but this movie is changing my mind. I'm so impressed with what Paul Rudd did with the character.
Not only that, but it's a great Marvel comic movie, in how it intertwines with the whole Marvel cinematic Universe.
Definitely recommend seeing in 3D cause it's that type of movie that deserves it.
