Road to Infinity War - Week #15: Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2
GOTG VOL. 2 is still as gorgeous and visual stunning as the first time I watched it back in theatres. For it being the sequel to my favourite movie of all time, I was so happy to not be disappointed. While others see this to not be as good or think it doesn’t really deliver, a lot of those people don’t really see that this film gives us four seperate storylines for our characters: Peter and Ego, Gamora and Nebula, Yondu ans Rocket, Mantis and Drax. And each storyline only develops these characters even more. These characters all have broken, abusive pasts and this is a story of these broken people finding happiness and safety and comfort within each other. There is so much heart to everything about this movie and it only makes these alien characters more human and relatable to some degree. I just love this movie!
The only negative I can really think of is one or two scenes get a little slow for my liking as there’s other things going on that I would like to see happening instead.
Final Grade: A-
