gamergcfan The first movie was great. It was exciting, packed with funny jokes, and very emotionally resonant. The plot was also good without being flaky. However, this seriously falters when compared to the first movie. It lacks the oomph the first movie had due to its dragging pace and lack of good characters to make you feel for what happened. The jokes feel forced here rather than funny. It also lacks the emotional resonance with poor, forced melodrama (and the characters, again). Finally, the plot is uninteresting and doesn't make a lot of sense. As always, good visuals, but there should be no reason for this movie to be rated a 7.7 when it is far inferior from the first movie.

elizabeth-12994 I thought this was a great movie and am still undecided between vol 1 and vol 2. It was a very funny movie and I was laughing all the way through. Although it was very comical, it didn't drag away from the main story line. The cast were phenomenal and all convincing characters. The graphics were great and really didn't let me down. I've lost count how many times I rewatched this movie but once again, marvel impressed us with this superb movie!

brian12994 When I saw this movie for the first time, I like it but I wouldn't have given it a 10. After seeing it for a second time I realized how great of a movie it is. The comedy just gets better and better and has me laughing even after seeing it for the tenth time. At this rate, GotG will go on longer than Harry Potter and that is perfectly ok with me!

priceturner Once again, I have to say this sequel isn't as good as the original, but that doesn't deny the best parts of the film. Our Guardians are still fantastic with everyone giving wonderful returning performances. Our newcomers Pom Klementieff and of course Kurt Russell do fantastic in their respective roles, the visuals are great, the music is great, the makeup is great, the direction is great, so what makes this not as good as the original. Well that'd probably be the writing. James Gunn does a great job with character development among other things but the story feels very much like filler and if the film was skipped in the MCU, you wouldn't miss much. However the Guardians like to keep things in their own circle, so it's not the worst, in fact it's very entertaining. Fun movie, with fun characters. That's pretty much it, also Michael Rooker!
