Small but perfectly formed

This film feels like it's on a slightly smaller scale than the recent MCU entries which is pretty apt given its hero. Its skirts around the bigger stories and characters of the other films but 100% delivers in it's own right. It's an origin story like most you've seen before but with that magic marvel touch that gives you the right amount of excitement, emotion and a new style of comedy for the MCU.
Yellow jacket may not be the most menacing villain you meet but he doesn't have to be. You couldn't put a rookie Ant Man up against Thanos and expect a happy ending.

A light comedy antidote to the drama heavy Endgame (1 more)

Jake Gyllenhaal hamming it up.

Over CGI'd again at the end. (0 more)

Where does Marvel go after the enormous success of “Avengers: Endgame“? The answer is a joyous comedy romp with your friendly neighbourhood Spider-man. His school trip to Europe was never going to be without incident, but who'd have expected Jake Gyllenhaal to rock up as a new superhero? A good blast of family popcorn fun.

Erika (17789 KP) rated Star Wars: Doctor Aphra, Vol. 1: Aphra in Books

Aug 3, 2019

When Doctor Aphra was first introduced in the first Darth Vader run by Kieron Gillen, I really liked her. She was a fun character and I found her intriguing. Apparently, I wasn't the only one, because Marvel ordered a series about her.
It was smart to have Gillen write the first part of her run, but I began to find her character kind of annoying and so predictable. From this volume, her character has began going downhill (I read Vol 3 before this one and JFC, she just grows more annoying).
Parts of the story were interesting, but overall, it was just kind of meh.
