First reactions to Peyton Reed’s Ant-Man, plus new images and BTS pics

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

The first press screening was held for Marvel's Phase 2-ending ANT-MAN, and the early reactions to the Peyton Reed-directed comic book movie are mostly positive, although there are a few who weren't impressed with the film. The Twitter reactions range from "another winner" from Marvel to "Not so much bad as it is blah," but all seem to agree that the credit scenes are pretty awesome. Yup, apparently we will be getting two end credit scenes with ANT-MAN.

Ant-Man isn't just great entertainment, it's also a great movie. Marvel's most human film to date. Fantastic.

Ant-Man ties into the MCU without using any tangents. Almost all buildup, but that's a part of the fun with heist films. Great script.

Sadly ‘Ant-Man’ falls flat in almost every way. Doesn’t seem like it’s sure of what it wants to be. Not so much bad as it is blah.

It takes ANT-MAN a moment to get cranked up, but once it does, it’s sensational. My favorite third-act of any Marvel movie.

Two Ant-Man credits scenes, each better than the last.

Ant-Man is more methodical than most Marvel movies but it’s hilarious & a totally great ride. So many fun MCU links too. Another winner.

ANT-MAN is fantastic fun with heart, wildly clever set-pieces, and a scene-stealing Michael Pena. It's a movie I want to be friends with.

ANT-MAN is good. Not a disaster like some expected but also not a homerun. Has a *must see* after the end credits scene.

#AntMan: Mostly boring with lots of exposition, daddy issues and a splash of wit. Oh! And Paul Rudd's abs. #FemaleGaze

Ant Man is great. Way better than Age of Ultron. @edgarwright deserves co-director credit. Feels like his movie.

Recent Marvel credit scenes have been kind of minor, but ANT-MAN has two (mid-credits and at the very end) that, unlike its hero, are huge.

ANT-MAN is a TON of fun! It's Marvel's version of Ocean's 11. Great cast, slick score and two wonderful post-credits scenes #StayTillTheEnd

Guys, don't worry. #AntMan is good. Like, goooooood. Also, it's the weirdest Marvel movie yet. Weirder than "Guardians of the Galaxy" even.

Stitch Kingdom also bunch of new stills and behind-the-scenes images from the movie which you can check out below. ANT-MAN will be in theaters on July 17, 2015.
