I think one of the movies I was most excited to see in my journey to see as many Marvel Movies as I can was Guardians of The Galaxy Volume 2. I had seen the first one in theaters and I really wanted to see this one but just didn't have the time... so I was just looking for a fun... slightly lighter Marvel Movie... and I kind of got that but the end upset me.
So I feel like Yondu really shines in this movie and they were really building him up to be one of the Guardians of The Galaxy... and then Spoilers... They kill him. Which made me really sad because Yondu was so funny and I felt like he helped connect the characters. He raised Peter, so obviously he had some connection there... plus throughout the movie he had a kinship with Rocket... and that was kind of nice to see too. Plus he definitely had the coolest weapon of any movie... it was basically a laser arrow that did, in fact, make him look like a very cool Mary Poppins.
I thought this movie was even a little funnier than the first movie... for like half the movie I thought it was pretty much nonstop laughs... Drax is just so literal and bad with interactions of any kind. Rocket Racoon and Yondu were just really great. Of corse Groot was really adorable.
Fun fact: Rumor has it a class was assigned to do a Resume as any Marvel Character... someone chose Groot of corse.
I don't know if I felt as strongly about this soundtrack as I did about Volume 1's soundtrack... I did really like it. I love the song The Chain by Fleetwood Mac that they played during a dramatic scene... I like that Rocket and everyone else kind of needs the music now too... I thought that was a nice little detail.
The action scenes were all good too... and the characters are pretty deep and there are lots of connections and backstories... This movie was also a major part of setting up Infinity War- you could tell from their mentions of Thanos and Gamora and her sister's anger towards him... it was a good way to set it up from what I understand without having seen Infinity War... So I guess I'm not really sure but I think it's pretty good.
I feel like that is really everything that I want to say about this movie... I didn't think the plot itself was all that strong- but all the little details about the movie made it so great and I thought it all worked pretty well... so I liked the movie a lot as a whole... and I think if you're not super into comic book movies... Guardians of The Galaxy is pretty great. I would say it's on par with Star Wars, but a lot funnier.
