The Guardians of the Galaxy are back in a new adventure- but
is it as fresh, funny and epic as its predecessor? The short answer: overall, yes.
Like all good sequels, the new story builds on the first,
without becoming overly reliant on it, as the primary focus is put onto a mystery set
up in Vol.1, that being Peter Quill’s heritage. The story is also set up and
paced rather well. Although it’s a tad predicable, the story most viewers will
be able to see clearly is effectively twisted and turned enough that it is not
too much of an issue. The film also handles its dual storylines surprisingly
well, giving each enough time to develop.
Everything that made the first Guardians of the Galaxy so
much fun is back in full force here- the film is once again hilarious, with
great action and of course a brilliant soundtrack that once again gives the
whole thing a fantastic feel good atmosphere.
So much depth is also added to each and every character and
story, adding in a good amount of heart and ensuring that the characters and
emotions are at the core of the story, as well as the action. And the action itself
is also very well done, as it should be in any good superhero movie.
Overall, this is a fun adventure that fans of the first film
will definitely love.
