It was the first Marvel movie that added a sense of humor and some color and it was fun af. The music was also a huge draw as it was well-used in every instance. No fat on that movie at all, no down time. It was enjoyable for every second. Guardians 2 was not as good, but still maintained that energy we loved. Guardians 3 was...okay. Obviously the humor toned down a bit for me as Peter Quill was going through some **** And of course the whole Rocket backstory. Besides that, though, everything was a little off. The music selection was great, but it was all over the place and didn't really resonate with the story. It was just there "hey, member this song??" The villain was kinda goofy and I didn't get why he was doing what he was doing. The plot, along with the soundtrack, was just all over the place again. Still the same vibe, but somehow diluted. Overall, it was a rather disappointing Marvel movie and there hasn't been a really good one since Infinity War for me (Endgame didn't do it for me). Expand

This is a complete disappointment that does NOT wrap up the characters, just pays lip service towards doing so. It is by far the weakest of the three, being a mess compared to the first two, which had much tighter stories. The script itself is formulaic and simplistic to the detriment of all character growth. There is pretense to some of that at the end of the movie, but it is growth that already took place in previous movies. With a lot of childish elements and characterizations, a McGuffin chase, and too much focus on "Hey this is a cool concept, let's waste 20 minutes on it".

On a more functional level, Gunn's story telling has completely devolved as he has now cranked the plot armor to completely invulnerability when convenient, but will turn that right back off when the plot needs that to happen as well. There is absolutely no way to gauge what kind of danger anyone is in, so there are zero stakes. He films those scenes at a JJ Abram's break-neck pace hoping you cannot pay enough attention to notice that. The worst part is when Gunn proves to be an unreliable narrator and fakes a death, slowing down time, focusing on the wound playing emotional music. Only for it to all be just fine immediately afterwards. That sums up this movie. I had such high hopes, only to see them frittered away with emotional manipulation and proof that continuity is beyond Gunn. The retconning he does in this will be a high point of discussion in the next few weeks as people begin to realize how much this would have changed at least one character.

But it was too easy to watch there was no meat to get my teeth into, and not enough wry smiles or even laughs.

This is by far the best of the mcu at the moment and it really wasn't that good, it's still only average.

No Heart, but Good Enough.

Just watch this Dumb, Not Star Wars Movie by James Gunn. We enjoyed the first installment because we had not connection to the characters, which gave him the edge in originality, but this third installment jumps from one plot point to another. Show don't tell is the best way the viewer can project their feelings into this story, but the story in this movie seems to rely on "Best Of" rather than challenge our characters and viewers with themes of evolving and growing up past your found family troupe that Gunn has enjoyed in many of his projects. I would suggest this to folks who want to watch a self contained space adventure with plenty of jokes, but don't expect to laugh out loud unless you have plenty of friends to go with you.

First off, way back when this was first announced years ago, I couldn't help but roll my eyes, as I felt as though a third Guardians film was completely unnecessary. Everything was capped off and ended so perfectly for the Guardians with not just the second film, but also 'Infinty War' and 'Endgame' as well, so I couldn't help but feel like a third film would be overkill. Sure enough, my suspicions were confirmed with this two and a half hour mess of a film that felt more like three hours. I was checking my phone several times in the hopes it would end sooner rather than later. Production values were questionable and cringeworthy at best, with the most absurd and ridiculous-looking costumes, set pieces, etc. The worst of it, which is certain to give me (and I'm sure several others) nightmares for days, is a sequence midway through the film on an alternate earth that's inhabited by several anthropomorphic animals that speak some annoying gibberish alien language. It's incredibly off-putting and disturbing to say the least. Storywise, none of it ever feels all that justified. It's mostly forgettable, and the main antagonist is incredibly weak and poorly developed. He's one of those characters that's just evil for the hell of it, with no rhyme or reason whatsoever or any background motivation of any kind. Gamora's way too pissed off for her own good and simply just storms around taking prisoners the whole film, and her and virtually every other character in the film spends well over half of it shouting at each other irritably. Not to say that there aren't any heartwarming moments throughout some of it, but they're all completely overshadowed by the rest of the film and its loud shouting and obnoxiousness. Even this film's soundtrack was a letdown. While the previous two installments had pretty great throwback in retro music throughout, this one instead settles for mid90s punk rock for the most part, which did not match the tone of the previous two films well at all! It all sounded so out of place in a Guardians film and sounded more like something a whiny angsty teenager from that era would be listening to as opposed to the suave, classy, and charismatic '70s and '80s tunes that we all loved hearing in the previous two films that fits Starlord's personality so much better. As far as cast and performances go, the only true standout to me was Will Poulter as Adam Warlock. By the films end, despite its (very forced) attempt to tug at the heart strings as much as it possibly can, I still couldn't help but think to myself what an unnecessary film this was that absolutely did not need to be made at all! Overall, easily the worst Guardians film of them all, and one that jumbles itself all over the place with hideous costumes/set pieces, a pretty aimless story, and simultaneously the most annoying and nightmare inducing anthropomorphic animals one could possibly imagine (who would have ever thought something could be annoying and terrifying at the same time?) It only further adds insult to injury with the fact that they try to manipulate our emotions so forcibly at the end when it simply was not earned with this film. I wasn't buying it. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I went last night to see it, and I liked how they told the story of Rocket and ended the Guardians of the Galaxy story arc, I very much disliked Gamora's role - she always felt out of place.

But the worst part is that we get the same stupid idea of a villain that has infinite time and resources and still gets his plan destroyed by a group of randoms. I mean they keep using these geniuses of villains in a really cringe way. Another bad part is that you could notice that some of environment designs were bad and the same of the acting of extras in the set.

But is continuing to do the same jokes also 10 years ago and even if was a good . A pointless joke a how to sit down a couch how to open a car. Among us reference really. Adam warlock didn't do anything to for the plot of the movie. You can replace for some random person and it would be the same. Like they build him up to be this almighty person as strong as thanos . Now villain was bland was he screams so much

I was really looking forward to this one and it delivered a nice swan song, but was devoid of any truly original material. Some awesome scenes keep you tethered, but it’s an awfully long ride to take for those small moments that act as the overall payoff.

If anything, it was Gunn’s personal sendoff of the comic book property that made his career without any sequel strings attached. ‘Nuff said.

Why? What is Sylvester Stallone doing here? Doesn't Marvel have any money to invest in a decent script rather than in actors that don't belong to their universe?

Yes, the scenario is deadly boring. It manages not to be predictable but only because it is totally crazy. Some scenes got me out of the movie just thanks to ugly and random events or characters. All the scenes on Counter-Earth are confusingly stupid. On the other hand it is an interesting way to explain Rocket's background journey (which is sorely missing to the other protagonists). Unfortunately this is poorly done. And here comes the major flaw of 'Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3' : the pathos.

The story only shines by the numerous scenes of suffering or evoking intense emotions (the (near)death of a character, a disillusionment, a missed objective, etc.) that only ends up in a silly and terrible 'I love you guys'. Because this movie fails where it says something it could otherwise show or just poetically evoke.

The pace is frantic as the movie appear to be really loud, there is no place for silence but to yell even more at our faces. Between the sound effects, the music, the dialogues and the fights, it feels like we are babies to be entertained by a bunch of keys constantly waved before our eyes.
The humour is classic, sometimes quite subtle, often honestly gross or terribly childish.

Some characters are barely introduced, notably as Will Poulter who embodies Adam Warlock : an overpowered character who doesn't bring anything but some deus ex machina patterns. His characters clearly was underused in addition to that.

The post-credit scenes are ones of the most disappointing that I saw in the Marvel franchise.

Incredible playlist as always, not too mainstream thank god. Amazing scene paced by 'No Sleep Till Brooklyn' from the Beastie Boys (shoutout to this amazing band). On the other hands, fistfights never seemed that brutal to me. In such a way that it less feels addressed to children (as the previous Marvel movies also were). Overall, the fights seem to me to be more intense, but not always in a good way since the heroes show a fickle weakness to some moves while others do not.

The special effects are obviously magnificent (since they are the ones that swallowed all the money) even if some of the fight scenes kind of look messy.

In conclusion: you don't need 150 minutes to tell a story that dumb and that fits on half a page. Also, there is no need to fake people's deaths just to save a little time for a story that already lasts what seems like an (painful) eternity.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This was not a great Marvel movie. It was an OK Guardians movie. The Guardians close out the trilogy, and their best performances are still in other movies where they can play off other characters. This has one of the worst villains of any of the Marvel movies. His motivations are paper thin, and completely indefensible. Rocket isn't in most of the movie, and instead of his comic relief and snark, we get Adam Warlock. One of the greatest antiheroes of the comics, reduced to an idiot for comic relief. I am so let down by James Gunn here, his exit for the DCEU shows where his heart is. It's not the worst movie in the MCU, but I would say Age of Ultron was a far more enjoyable movie compared to this. Disney is really trying to find their footing with these almost-all-CGI movies. This one, like Ant-Man and the Quantumania before it, just feels at times like you are watching a high-end 3D cartoon. Especially at times where characters can just feel weightless, as their bodies ragdoll and contort. It's shiny, and colorful, but I still would not say this is good CGI; and that's a serious problem when that's 80+% of your movie. What would I change?
*This movie badly needed Thor in it
*Rockets origin story had no flow in the movie, you could have just shown it in one sequence and the story would have been more even
*Get rid of this villain, just completely, make Adam Warlock the bad guy here and give him a redemption arc. The scientist dude can just die when Rocket escapes, and be a much more minor character. I don't think the movie loses anything, it gains so much more.
*Do not make a cool character like Adam Warlock a bumbling idiot
*Cut at least 20 minutes off the runtime, I felt like we had 3 different celebrations at the end, and none of them were anything like the touching sendoff for Yandoo from Guardians Vol. 2
*It was unforgivable that Groot spoke. You just destroyed his entire character. There is no reason, explanation, or anything. Just needed a touching moment, so boom, Groot can talk now.

People are definitely going to mixed on this. It is a touching sendoff, Groot definitely has some moments here.

Actors that are returning include: Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Vin Diesel, Bradley Cooper and Dave Bautista. Also joining the cast is Shawn Gun from the Suicide Squad, and Chukwudi Iwuji from Peacemaker, John Wick chapter 2, and designated Survivor. The Guardians return for their final solo mission. After Rocket gets shot, the other Guardians have to learn more about where he came from to try and save him. Will Rocket Survive? Gun integrates a little of everything: action, teamwork, humor, and heart. Between all the fights and the Guardians trying to escape from danger, there was action all throughout the film. In previous Guardians of the Galaxy films only certain people got to save the day. Here however they all got a moment to shine. Groot is older now and has earned the right to have guns in his branches which makes him look like a killing machine. Drax spoke to kids in their native language. Rocket stands up to the people who made him. Nebula, Drax, and Mantis return to rescue Star Lord and Groot from the high evolutionaries ship. Just like all the other Guardian film’s there is humor infused into the characters. Not as funny as the second one but it is dealing with more serious stakes. Rocket’s backstory is not one any animal should have to endure. At the heart of all three Guardian movies are themes of family and fitting in. All the Guardians are outcasts and don’t really have a family, until they all meet in the first film. They all have different strengths and with combining those strengths and working together they have become a family and can achieve whatever comes there way. If you liked the previous two Guardians of the Galaxy films you should go see how the story ends. It’s a good conclusion to the trilogy. Expand

While overlong for its story, not enough time is dedicated to flush out this movie's new characters (Rocket's cage pals, the Sovereign's golden boy, astronaut dog, etc.) and they appear at crucial moments in the film only to leave the audience with questions like, "What?! Why?" and "Who the heck was that?"

This movieThe first Guardians movie is one of my favourite marvel movies of all time, great pacing , fun story, fantastic soundtrack, nice action scenes and even though they were just being introduced each character had a moment to shine. This movie has managed to take all those elements and somehow dilute then into something way less compelling. The pacing is pretty weird, the story is all over the place, albeit not as much as the soundtrack. Where the songs complemented and enhanced the scenes of the first movie in the third you can tell they’re there solely to try to reproduce “cool” moments with little to no success. In very random moments the music starts as the guardians walk in slowmo from here to there trying to look hella cool but it literally has no connection with the story and mood of the previous scene. The character development is also pretty underwhelming, Peter is barely a character, Draxx and Mantis have some fun back and forth but don’t go much further than that, Gamorra was insufferable , Adam Warlock was there. The difference is staggering, in the first movie for example, there’s a scene where Peter sees Rocket undress and notices his scars and implants, that one moment literally told us everything we needed to know without any words, in the third the same concept is explored in greater detail only to then have rocket not have any particularly relevant payoff… It’s so sad to see how mediocre these movies are becoming, there is a wealth of material to draw from but we end up getting these poorly written messes. Like how often can you see a character seemingly die, everyone screaming in panic and crying, only for that character to get up an walk it off in the next scene? Lazy writing Expand

I just can't help it that certain movies that people love I can't get into and vice versa. I personally think this is James Gunn's most disjointed movie. It's weird on the 3rd and final film to throw Quill to the back burner to give Rocket center stage. I like both characters a lot but GotG3 feels like it should have been a Rocket spinoff movie after the GotG trilogy ended. A lot of the humor falls kind of flat for me and it results with the crew mostly yelling at each other for the entire movie. Is yelling funny now? On top of that there were zero surprises in the story and I think we all pretty much knew how it would play out. I secretly wished the group would all die in a blaze of glory like Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid or something but what we got was very safe. But how about those trailers and commercials teasing big character deaths, eh?
One big bone I have to pick about the MCU in general is how they are picking weirder and weirder stories and topics for their films and the kinda bad color scheme and design choices they are using to stick as close to old dated comics as possible, like the Kirby color palette. I understand the theme of animal testing and Rocket's friends looking like they have been tortured. But Rocket is a raccoon with some scars and some implants. Did we need a walrus with wheels or a rabbit with robotic spider legs? Kind of too goofy and freakish at the same time.
All this being said, the movie was still touching and moving and I actually liked where the film left most of the main characters. I just wish we took a different route to get there.

Better than the second movie, but not very good. Weak plot. Incredibly weak and poorly written villain. Somehow the writers forgot that Quill has a spacesuit. It's just not a fun movie.

Начну с того, что Квилл пропил свои реактивные ботинки и свой бронекостюм! Почему? А хрен его знает. И в этом весь фильм.

Начну с того, что Квилл пропил свои реактивные ботинки и свой бронекостюм! Почему? А хрен его знает. И в этом весь фильм.
Ганн напихал в третью часть всего, с таким расчетом, как будто думал, что все все должны были прочитать и комиксы, и игры пройти про стражей!
Кто этот/эта Космо, что такое Забвение, что делает в нашем измерении живая Гамора, кто такой Варлок и почему он идиот, кто такой Сталлоне и чо он делает у опустошителей?
2/3 хронометража Ракета лежит в коме, так что 90% шуток фильм потерял. Но вот "шуточек" про фекалии добавилось изрядно.
Вообще фильм стал каким то нудноватым.
Опять же кто этот Высший Эволюционер? Как он, будучи по сути простым человеком до случая с Ракетой, мог сотворять целые миры? И где вообще он был последние 10-20 лет? Ведь явно, что со дня побега Ракеты прошли десятилетия. Это и дружба с первым Грутом, и знакомство со стражами, и приключения с Таносом. А здесь ощущение такое, что Эволюционер ищет Ракету, ну вот день, может неделю! И где он был до того?
Ощущения от фильма очень двоякие. Вроде как открыли нам секрет появления Суверенов, показали наследника Йонду. А с другой стороны в конце развалили всю команду. Линия Квилла и Гаморы кончилась, Мантис ушла (на мой взгляд очень харизматичные персонажи) и, что дальше. Концовка как то разочаровала.
Не обошлось и без плевка в сторону СССР.
Как по мне третья часть слабее предыдущих.
Хотя... очень понравился персонаж Юра, сыгранный Даниэлой Мелшиор, очень красивая!

Applied the usual formula. People always have a soft spot for animal cruelty. Take that away, it had nothing. No character development at all with sub-par CGI. Mismanagement of characters like Adam Warlock. This movie was an overhyped mess.

The melodrama is grating. Some good jokes and cinematic tricks. James Gunn hit gold with the first one. Now he is recycling all his ideas, reworking them, and trying to make them hit hard.

Now he is recycling all his ideas, reworking them, and trying to make them hit hard. Instead, the movie hits very soft and feels way too long. Cut out some of the melodrama, don't overstuff it with so many broad character motivations, and focus a bit more on developing the antagonist maybe. Basically, if this movie was tightened up A LOT, it would have been an 8/10. As it is, it feels like a jokey/emotional Marvel soap opera series, smashed and squeezed into an overflowing mess of a movie. Expand
