ANT-MAN AND THE WASP: QUANTUMANIA Is Unlikely To Break Even By The End Of Its Global Box Office Run. "There's no question, audiences were not satisfied with 'Ant-Man 3,'" David A. Gross, the boss of movie consulting firm Franchise Entertainment Research, tells the trade.

The Marvel franchise spins its wheels with Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania, a bland-looking, boringly plotted waste of time.
