Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.2 Review




Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.2 is a superhero film based on the Marvel team of the same name. It's the sequel to the 2014 film and the fifteenth film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It's produced by Marvel Studios and distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures. It's written and directed by James Gunn.


The story is The Guardians are hired by the Sovereign race to protect their batteries from invaders but one of them steals the batteries so now the Sovereign want revenge. While this is happening their also trying to figure Peter Quill's/Star-Lord's true lineage.



  • Negatives

One thing in this movie that really bothered me was the Sovereign despite being one of the villains in this movie they sucked. They didn't do very much hell they weren't really that much of a threat.



Another thing I didn't like is some characters got more development than Drax. He didn't get any really now you could argue we got development for him in the first movie. What I'm saying is if the movie was going do give us more depth to the Guardians of the Galaxy you got to give some to Drax too.



  • Mix

Now as much as I did like the humor to this movie there are just times were I think there shouldn't have been a joke. Now a character in this movie dies I won't tell you who but a their funeral the Guardians are just cracking jokes of all the times not to do that it would be at someone's funeral.



  • Positives

Baby Groot....nothing else just Baby Groot. He was awesome.



Now I know I just criticized the humor but like I said I did like the humor in this movie there were just times when I didn't think it was necessary. The characters who got the most laughs from me were Drax, Baby Groot, and Rocket.



Another thing I liked about this movie was the music. Guardians of the Galaxy did a great job with their choice of music. Both songs you heard from the 80's and the movie's score.



The movie much like the first again has great visual effects. I especially loved the look to Peter Quill's/Star-Lord's dad planet that place looked beautiful.



Now to take about the action. I loved the action in this movie mostly in the beginning and ending. It had my heart pounding.



Now for my biggest compliment to this movie is it developments a large majority of the characters. The movie just doesn't focus of Peter but also other characters as well. We get to understand why Nebula has all those machine parts. Yondu also gets some attention, and we also get to understand why Rocket does the things he does.



Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.2 has good character development, it's also very funny even if there were scenes where I think it didn't need a joke, the visual effects are yet again amazing, the music is fun to listen, and Baby Groot. My biggest problems with this movie are the Sovereign and Drax's lack of development.



My final rating for this movie is Good.




Now I'm going to give some news I saw this movie at my theater but I was very annoyed before the movie started I'll explain on Thursday. Also while I did easter eggs for The Lego Batman Movie & Logan I won't be doing it for this movie the reason is my scheduling won't work. I got a review for The Amazing Spider-Man & I also want to review Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox. So one thing had to get cut and that was an easter egg post for this movie but don't worry I'll do one for Wonder Woman & Spider-Man: Homecoming.
