Thanks to Marvel Studios for the sneak peek at Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2! All thoughts and opinions shared are my own.
When I was offered the chance to see Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 before its official theatrical release, I jumped at the chance! Hubby and I had just re-watched Guardians of the Galaxy a few nights before, to get up to speed before seeing the second installment of the series. I went into the theater expecting to be entertained and hoping that I wouldn't become bored during the show. I did see this one in 3D, which was a lot of fun!
GOTG Vol. 2 picks up where the first Guardians movie left off- the Guardians are hired to fight monsters and protect the galaxy. From the very beginning, this movie is hilarious. I'm not one who will usually laugh out loud in a movie theater, but this movie had me in stitches. Ringing in at about two hours and twenty minutes for its runtime, Guardians Vol. 2 will have you captivated each and every second.
This movie gives us a glimpse into Star lord's back story- we learn about his parents, and how Star-ord wound up protecting the galaxy. There seems to be a family theme throughout the movie, which Yondu, Star-Ld, Gamora, and even Drax explore. You'll see some familiar enemies and some surprising new ones. Baby Groot is absolutely adorable, and Rocket doesn't disappoint with his constant need to banter.
I wasn't the biggest fan of Guardians of the Galaxy story the first time around (but watched it because I love Chris Pratt), but in my opinion, Guardians Vol. 2 is better than the first. It's a bit more graphic than the first movie, and the language is definitely not for little ears, much to the disappointment of a big six-year-old fan in my house. It was hilarious- I laughed the whole time (and might have cried once or twice, too!). It'll pull at your heartstrings, and leave you smiling!
The movie opens it up to the suggestion of the next film, which has been confirmed by Marvel Cinematic Studios. We can't wait for the next installment of Guardians of the Galaxy!
