Unlike most people, I did not love the first Guardians of the Galaxy, I liked it. And that is also the case with Guardians 2. Some great character moments, once again stunning visuals and an amazing soundtrack. But is this movie perfect? No.Unlike most people, I did not love the first Guardians of the Galaxy, I liked it. And that is also the case with Guardians 2. Some great character moments, once again stunning visuals and an amazing soundtrack. But is this movie perfect? No. The story was not the most original and the character's relationships developed too fast for a single film. In the first movie I missed the character development and in this entry it was too much, it just isn't very believable in some cases. Because of this, emotional scenes sometimes felt forced and missed to really make you feel them. All in all I had a lot of fun with this movie and was positively surprised, even though I still had my problems with it. But hey, which movie doesn't have problems? It's pure fun and that's what it wants to be - watch it!… Expand

And good for them because it was a great movie and madeWhen Marvel made Buzz Aldrin an honorary member of the Guardians of the Galaxy and gave him an Infiniti Gauntlet you know the marketing team for Guardians of the Galaxy means business! And good for them because it was a great movie and made big business at the box office.

Guardians of the Galaxy 2 was better than Guardians 1 and I’ll list the reasons why because it is seldom where a sequel outperforms its predecessor. One thing was the soundtrack was fun! It fit the movie, and it was amazing. Fun tracks like “Come a Little Bit Closer” had me tappin my foot to the awesome mix. Baby Groot also makes this movie. Baby Groot is funner than Big Boy Groot. Also cuter and I’m sure the merchandising is cashing in on this aspect. Give me a hero who appears weak and powerless yet can get the job done in fun way. And that’s exactly what Baby Groot represents.

I watched Guardians 2 in the theatre and I knew it was a good movie at the end. Right after they started rolling the credits we were leaving and I saw a woman near the front who was an obvious comicbook fan who was crying, and she was talking with her friends and I heard her say “that was a great movie.” It's great when fans are moved to tears because they love a movie. And I’d have to agree with her. 10 out of 10.… Expand

It's just the premise and story of the film that chokes Volume II on its own ego, and the ending drags to absolute ridiculous proportions, mourning the death of a character that really didn't need that kind of send-off. But so far what we've learned from these Guardians movies is they seem to have all the pieces in place, they just can't write the best story for these wondrous characters to dance in.… Expand

Volume 2 is a good continuation of the first movie. The same chemistry is there, and the actors and actresses are obviously comfortable in their zone. While in that zone there is several new and older characters that make their appearance. My favorite new character is Mantis. I really think her and Drax would make a good couple (yes I am a romantic).

I don't think this is too spoilery, but Quill gets to meet his father, and I think they made an excellent choice by selecting Kurt Russell. It felt natural, and even though I saw the character arc with his dad it was interesting. As a side note there are several cameos that are great as well.

My favorite character though in this one was Yando. I like Michael Rooker in a lot of things, but I really think this is my favorite role of his. The relationship between Quill and him, and the actual story behind his raising of Quill made him a very satisfactory character.

The movie itself is full of good actions scenes, and even though I really wasn't fond of the golden Sovereign, it was a lot of fun to watch. I even enjoyed the 5 after credits scenes, my favorite involves Groot and Quill. I do have to say that movies are getting out of hand with after credit scenes. Couldn't they just put it at the end of the movie and not make us wait 10 minutes through credits?

It is definitely a see in the theater kind of movie.

The good: It is more of the same as Volume 1, with the addition of more Rooker and some funny cameos.

The bad: I didn't particularly like the sovereign, and after credit scenes have to stop.… Expand

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 is yet again a really funny entry in the MCU. Character development is really strong this time. Yondu (Michael Rooker) and Rocket's (Bradley Cooper) relationship is very well done and Nebula (Karen Gillan) and Gamora's (Zoe Saldana) relationship is also very well developed. CGI wasn't perfect but not horrible either. It was sometimes a bit distracting but it didn't distract as much as to just interupt the story for you. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 is a great follow-up to the first Guardians of the Galaxy but doesn't exceed it's predecessor. The villain is excellently developed and played by Kurt Russel and overal Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 is a fun time to watch.… Expand

MCU movies are notably dull or grey but not GOTG2. The vibrancy of the colours makes this one of the most visually pleasing movies to watch. This movie also has some nice neat moments such as the Yondu and Rocket "You're like me!" conversation and the moment where Mantis felt Drax's sadness. It does have a weaker plot though with 3 different ongoing plots that seem to be happening at the same time. These plots are barely connected and only get stitched together right at the end. Nevertheless, the cast is still phenomenal and the action set pieces are still enjoyable to watch. The soundtrack is great with one of the best opening use of Mr Blue Sky in cinema history.

A great sequel!… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Thoughts on Guardians of the Galaxy 2 because I decided to re-watch this instead of the new Indiana Jones movie. It’s kinda weird when they leave room for audience laughter after every joke and you’re watching this at home and it’s always because no one laughs at the jokes because they’re just not funny. I have no feelings towards that cartoon tree baby. Toe gag still biggest laugh for me Back then I didn’t like the story and enjoyed the action/comedy, now I don’t like the action/comedy but I start to care about the story and its themes. Why is it so long??

The vfx quality got worse somehow. Omg young Kurt Russell looks absolutely horrifying, almost like an alien ..wait. So.. did Vin Diesel dressed as a baby tree put a bomb up Kurt Russell’s ass?! Ugh, I hate Chris Pratt Why is there Pac-Man? This movie feels like four hours, I don’t know how I’m supposed to make it through infinity War which is actually four and a half hours long

It was an incredibly good surprise. Vol.2 is none of those things. One has to wonder what changed? One obvious thing is Nicole Perlman is no longer in the screenplay credits. Guess what? That made all the difference:
The humor, which is what MADE guardias vol.1 so great - has become cliche, not a single moment was funny. In fact, sometimes the pace is deliberately slowed down - in order to actually repeat some awful cringe-inducing gigs.
Rocket specifically has the worst lines by far. The direction went as far as giving rocket a voice that makes the viewer feel like Rocket KNOWS his gigs are awful - and yet he continues to do them, as if spellbound...
It's possible guardians of the galaxy vol.2 was all one big plot of Rocket - for the "bounty money" he knew the film would generate.
Spare yourselves ladies & gentlemen - this movie is so bad it stinks. If you're gonna watch it - make sure to mute the sound and put some music in the background - you've been warned.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2. Another movie entering the Marvel Cinematic franchise, to bring in the big bucks. This movie brings in, brand new ideas, of comedy, lore, and cliffhangers that get you thinking. Guardians 2, is an amazing movie that is accompanied by, Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Dave Bautista, and many more to accompany this next MCU movie. This movie has creative side plots, a big plot involving Peter Quill's(Chris Pratt) father while growing his relationship with Gamora, and Nebula. This movie is full of comedy, and it really shows how much characters can grow, and it really shows that in this movie. It really makes you miss the first movie after 3 years of Marvel Cinematic Masterpieces.… Expand

This film is a big "watch and learn" nudge to poorly directed comic book films. James Gunn showed us how to effectively use humor to ante up the storytelling, and even took us to Slow-motion 101 Class.

You can clearly see that Marvel trusted James Gunn. Everything he did, even the slapstick-LooneyToon-ish kind of humor were perfect. He clearly had fun conceptualizing and visualizing everything.

The villain, like any other Marvel villains except Loki, sucks. Unclear motivations + can be defeated by the power of love. You know, all that jazz. But aside from that, the entire movie was a very enjoyable watch.

It is a pretty good sequel to Volume 1. What we thought to be an epic dad-son moment was just a facade, and honestly, to Quill, who just wanted a father all this time, it was a bit sad.

I actually didn't find the story in this as interesting as in the first film, but the humour - which is still up to the mark in 'Guardians of the Galaxy' - is much greater here; it got more laughs from me, that's for sure. The ending to this is also entertaining.

Chris Pratt and Co. are just as enjoyable as before, with Dave Bautista particularly standing out to me here; if only due to his amusing moments. I like the addition of Pom Klementieff, I can see a spot for her in the crew. Kurt Russell and Elizabeth Debicki make for contrasting newcomers, Russell is just about good but I felt Debicki and her lot were underused/unintriguing.

Not the most compelling plot, which I found more predictable than what the MCU usually produces, but the strong action end and noteworthy humour elevates it to become a pleasant film to watch; if a drop from the original.… Expand

The memorable movies were the ones that I still remember veryAfter the release of Infinity War, I had been bingewatching all the MCU movies to catch up with everyone before Endgame comes. And of course I was watching them all very hurriedly. The memorable movies were the ones that I still remember very clearly to date (it's been nearly 3 years), while the ones that were terrible and a drag to watch, I forgot them instantly. I'd say this movie comes between the two categories, and as far as I can think right now, it's the only one to be in this exceptional category.

No matter what everyone says, I absolutely hate baby Groot. Cuteness only suits on creatures we are used to perceiving as cute. And thus Groot, a tree, looks very, very awkward with those chubby cheeks. It seems as though that face wasn't meant to be on that body. Also the entire point of his innocence is very irritating, especially the part where he wanted to use Rocket's buttons in spite of him repeatedly telling him not to do it. That scene does not even make any sense, since other than that part Rocket and Groot seem to understand each other literally all the time. Groot becomes stupid or intelligent, strong or weak as the story demands it, which is why I absolutely hate him.

The visuals are absolutely gorgeous. Though it feels as though there is too much yellow in the colour palette and the overall tone is more inclined towards the warm shades, the CGI world is marvelous to look at. Ego is a great planet to look at. I have seen Ego in the comics now so I can't believe they were actually able to translate him so well on the screen. Seeing the spaceship battles always kept me on the edge of my seat. It's just like how I was expecting the movie to become better as time progresses.

But the way the conflict between Peter and Ego came was very bad. First of all, the way they bonded was wrong by their characteristics. Peter is a gullible guy who always thinks by his emotions while Gamora is the sensible one. Yet here Peter was the one suspecting Ego while Gamora wanted him to trust Ego. And then the way Ego revealed his mother's death, ugh! Why did he even need to say that! Firstly no matter how much you are in a flow, you'd never say something like that. And secondly if he knows so much about Peter, how did he not know saying that would make him angry?

I really liked Mantis. I never understood why her character arc was about her being ugly. She looked way better than Nebula or Drax. She was kinda cute though. I couldn't hear any of Drax's jokes so I won't be talking about him. Yondu was also a very nice character. As much as I rolled my eyes seeing him in the movie, I really enjoyed seeing what he had become. His character development is fantastic, because of the redeemed person that he is. His whistling and shooting arrows was very much fun to watch.

Overall this movie is a very mixed bag of opinions for me. I think it's really bad compared to the first movie, but at the same time really entertaining compared to most MCU movies. There is so much CGI, so much world building in GotG that I can't possibly hate it. I'm just gonna try to remember this one. I had forgotten everything about it except the good scenes, so I had to watch the Cinemasins video to remember it. I hope Volume 3 surpasses my expectations.… Expand

Fun really is the one and only best word to describe this action-packed film. Not only was I laughing more and harder during this film, but it also did what proper sequels need to do, which is to further flesh out the established characters and provide more engrossing backstories to them to make us care for them even more. The plotline too, is also much better, with a villain who is much more interesting and menacing. Furthermore, there are some legitimately sorrow scenes in this film that help elevate it to being more than just a real goodtime action flick. I'm so happy to have seen "Vol.2" and to witness its identity in full bloom rather than in chrysalis form during the first film. This is another big win film for Marvel Studios. P.S. I frigging love those gold aliens who think they are so perfect when in reality they are not. Oh man, hilarious...and also...who the hell wants a nickname like Taserface?? Ha ha ha!… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Guardianes de la Galaxia Vol. 2, dirigida por James Gunn, regresa con una secuela que captura la esencia única y vibrante de su predecesora y la lleva a nuevas alturas. Esta película es un festín visual y emocional, llena de acción, humor y un elenco carismático que nos sumerge en un viaje cósmico lleno de sorpresas y emociones.

El mayor logro de Guardianes de la Galaxia Vol. 2 es su capacidad para profundizar en los personajes y explorar sus relaciones de manera significativa. El guion de James Gunn se adentra en la historia personal de cada uno de los Guardianes, ofreciendo momentos conmovedores y revelaciones impactantes que nos hacen conectar aún más con ellos. El enfoque en la familia elegida y la importancia de la amistad añade una capa de emotividad que se entrelaza perfectamente con la acción y el humor.

El elenco una vez más brilla en sus respectivos roles. Chris Pratt como Peter Quill continúa demostrando su carisma innegable, pero es en las interpretaciones de los personajes secundarios donde la película realmente destaca. La interpretación de Zoe Saldana como Gamora muestra una mayor profundidad emocional, mientras que Dave Bautista nos sorprende con un Drax lleno de humor y vulnerabilidad. Además, las actuaciones de Michael Rooker como Yondu y de Kurt Russell como Ego añaden un nivel adicional de calidad al reparto.

Visualmente, Guardianes de la Galaxia Vol. 2 es un festín para los ojos. La dirección artística y los efectos visuales son deslumbrantes, creando mundos coloridos y llenos de vida que nos transportan a través del cosmos. Las secuencias de acción son espectaculares y están coreografiadas con maestría, ofreciendo momentos emocionantes y visualmente impactantes que nos mantienen al borde de nuestros asientos.

El humor también desempeña un papel crucial en la película. Los diálogos ingeniosos y las situaciones cómicas están perfectamente equilibrados, lo que añade ligereza y diversión a la narrativa. El humor no se interpone en los momentos emotivos, sino que los complementa, creando un equilibrio que funciona a favor de la historia.

En resumen, Guardianes de la Galaxia Vol. 2 es una secuela brillante que expande el encanto y la emoción de la primera entrega. Con su guion inteligente, actuaciones destacadas y un mundo visualmente deslumbrante, la película nos sumerge en un viaje emocionalmente resonante y lleno de acción. Es una experiencia cinematográfica que deleitará tanto a los fanáticos de Marvel como a los amantes del cine en general.… Expand
