7/10
A Father & Son Movie
28 December 2019
Warning: Spoilers
I just watched Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol 2.

I really enjoyed the first one, but this one less, so as it's very disjointed, the soundtrack is not as fun and not all of the humour lands. It had too much humour (including long running jokes) just cos everyone loved the humour in the first one, doesn't mean we needed more of it here.

Yondu (Michael Rooker) was by far my favourite character here (he steals this movie). Give us a Yondu movie, Marvel. Kurt Russell is great, (The young CGI Kurt is great) Nebula was great, her scenes with Gamora were good too!! They were Gamora's best scenes. It's Starlords movie (as about 90% of the movie is about him and his Dad) and Pratt is surprisingly subdued.... Maybe because Russell is so charismatic. I really enjoyed the Stan Lee cameo.

Baby Groot is ok but Drax doesn't really do anything except be comic relief which is fine. Rocket who I loved in the first movie is a bit of a idiot here, but he has some good lines here and there. The Gold people were ok at the beginning, but they should have just been left there.

Sly Stallone pops up, and seems very out of place. It's like he is just playing his Toymaker character from Spy Kids 3-D. Although Iike his post credit scene, and would love to see a RAVENGERS movie.

Sadly, despite the fact that I cried at Yondu's death and funeral, I don't think I'll ever feel the need to rewatch this one.
