Review selections:
> Maybe the pictures should get small again; it might be the only way to save an MCU that seems dangerously close to getting too big to do anything but fail.
- Kate Erbland, Indiewire, C+
> In “Quantumania,” sprightly pacing and lighthearted humor have succumbed to the turgid seriousness that plagues so much of the comic book canon.
- Ann Hornaday, Washington Post, 1.5/4
> If you can ignore the convoluted plot – not, sadly, a rarity in the increasingly complex Marvel Cinematic Universe – you’ll have a blast with these characters.
- Charlotte O'Sullivan, London Evening Standard, 4/5
> Both a dispiriting reminder that the MCU has abandoned wit and that even the most clever and idiosyncratic of filmmakers can be steamrolled by the unstoppable obligations of corporate storytelling.
- Barry Hertz, Globe and Mail
> Quantumania isn’t as wacky as it should be, and the humongous stakes feel oddly small. But where else do you get a wild Jonathan Majors, an intense Michelle Pfeiffer and talking broccoli?
- Alex Godfrey, Empire, 3/5
> Prepare to be slammed by special effects, hammered by an ear-battering soundtrack. Oh, and you’ll be left mewling for mercy after an onslaught of Truly Bad Dialogue.
- Soren Anderson, Seattle Times, 1.5/4
> All in all – particularly when balanced against the weightiness of Majors’s performance – Quantumania nicely hits the mark: it’s goofy, but goofy to just the right degree.
- Clarrisa Loughrey, Independent, 3/5
> Majors thankfully rights the ship every time he pops up with his deliciously disconcerting presence.
- Brian Truitt, USA Today, 2.5/4
> Sorry to Raid on your parade, “Ant-Man” fans, but the third chapter is a pile of dirt.
- Johnny Oleksinski, New York Post, 2/4
> While it’s not surprising that [Majors'] imposing physicality perfectly suits his iconic villainous character, he also invests his performance with such an arrestingly quiet stillness and ambivalence that you’re on edge every moment he’s onscreen.
- Frank Scheck, Hollywood Reporter,
