[Theresa Shaver] tells a story of survival and how when the world collapses people can either rise up and do the right thing or become evil. [The Land] starts with teenager at Disneyland when an EMP hits and disables all technology. Luckily the students have a teacher who encourages them to get home although she must stay with those who won't leave. Home is Canada. The small group divides to those who choose to go by sea and those by land. This follow the trek aver the mountains and through an increasing panicking population to get home.

The plot was fast paced and well written and the characters were a mix of those you liked and those you wish would be eaten by a bear. In other words it was well balanced.

Post-credits scene is not worth the wait (0 more)
Great funny, thrilling adventure
I may have over-egged the rating for this, as it was my first 4D experience (excluding the very dated Captain Eo at Disneyland Paris) which was incredible!
This keeps the feel of Ant-Man (a daft, capable hero with technology allowing him to become more than he is), but expands on that while keeping Michael Pena's character at peak hilarity. It doesn't feel like Ant-Man 2, it is a definite Wasp movie as she is (rightly) given a lot more of the limelight.
Ant-Man does become something of a laughing stock in the film, mainly due to comedic mishaps with his suit, but he still proves himself to be a capable hero.
Numerous references to Captain America: Civil War, which helped make it more inclusive of the overall MCU and pre-credits scene which alludes to Infinity War (Part 1).
NB - the post-credits scene is not worth the wait at all.
