At a time when many superhero movies are starting to look similar, the new Guardians of the Galaxy movie is fresh and different.
In this installment, Peter Quill (Chris Pratt) finally meets his father (Kurt Russel), a celestial being who may have a sinister agenda.
The Guardians of the Galaxy has proven itself to be the most fun franchise in the MCU. And this movie is just as entertaining as the original. It is full of intense action, good special effects, a lot of humor, and a fun soundtrack.
Like the original, this one doesn't feel so much like a traditional superhero movie. It plays out more like a more colorful, retro, comedic version of Star Wars. The Guardians are a conceptually bizarre team, and the movie knows this and has as much time devoted to comedy as it does to action. And James Gunn, who also directed the previous movie, perfectly replicates the fun of the original.
That being said, this is still not as good as the first movie story-wise. However, it is as fun as the first movie. This is a very entertaining, funny, and visually stunning time at the theater.
4.5 out of 5 stars
