Finally got round to seeing Guardians 3… What a waste of 2 1/2 hours that was. I enjoyed the first 2, but 3 was just terrible. The “story” is awful. Numerous, cheesy, cliché bits thrown together here and there. Nothing interesting or very cohesive. Nothing ever had a sense of consequence.
Even the soundtrack couldn’t quite save it (though was easily the best part).
“Written and Directed by James Gunn”.
Good luck DC, you’re gonna need it.
While I actually like the stakes to become lower again (we can’t keep increasing the stakes forever), I agree that the movie wasn’t what I was hoping for. The origin story stuff and cohesion of the group was nice, but the High Evolutionary was really odd overall.
Yeah for real, the High Evolutionary was such a weird choice. Throughout the movie, I kept thinking to myself, “this is the villain?!”
Matteo from Superstore as his top henchman probably didn’t help things.
Rocket’s origin story was cool, though.
