Directed by: James Gunn
Written by: James Gunn & a lot of other people
Starring: Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Dave Bautista, Vin Diesel, & Bradley Cooper
Rather than going my usual Sunday morning, I made an exception and went Friday night for this Marvel sequel.
The film continues where it left off in the first film. After establishing their reputation, the guardians have been hired to protect these powerful batteries. Unfortunately, after Rocket (Cooper) steals some, their group starts falling apart as they get bounties on their heads. Luckily for them, Ego (Kurt Russell) saves them and reveals that he is the father of Peter Quill (Pratt). He then wants to bond with his son and get to know him, but not everyone is so sure that his intentions are true.
This film was just as good as the first. But you're probably wondering: why the 4 popcorns? Well it isn't 5 due to some pacing issues. There were a few scenes that seemed to drag on, but they added to the story nonetheless.
Despite that though, there are so many other good scenes. For instance, the tape scene, or the beginning scene with Groot (Diesel) dancing, all the scenes with Drax (Bautista) and Mantis (Pom Kiementieff), the ending, and probably some more that I forgot.
It is definitely an entertaining film, but you should know that despite being about Quill's relationship with his father, the main premise is about family for all the characters, therefore there are not as many scenes with Pratt as there were in the first film. Also, of course, stay until the end of the credits.
4 popcorns.
