Bobson Dugnutt never fails to provide high quality edits, with cuts so flawless you would never know they were there.
I'm a big fan of the original Ant-Man. It's definitely a pallet cleanser in the larger MCU, but an enjoyable one, thanks largely in part to some fun performances.

The Ant-Man: The Pym Particle Partition makes some great changes, most notably the inclusion of a very fun deleted scene where Scott Lang cases Hank Pym's house. That said, there are some scenes removed that I did find myself missing, including the opening flashback scene (which I admit isn't entirely necessary), and the introduction to Darren Cross with the first Yellowjacket presentation. Through editing, Bobson Dugnutt was able to creatively restructure another scene as Cross's introduction, and it works quite well! However, I find that without the initial intro scene and a few other scenes cut out, Cross gets far less screen time and becomes an even more generic and forgettable villain than he already was in the theatrical cut.

That said, this edit runs at a clip! It's perfect if you want to binge the Infinity Saga and want a shorter gap between Age of Ultron and Civil War.

Edit: to the person who downvoted, you don't have to agree with my opinion. But I'd like to think I provided enough information and detail to consider my review "helpful." I gave the edit many compliments, I just didn't rate it as high in my personal enjoyment factor. 8.8/10 is still a good score.
