Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol 1

Hello Everyone, 

Spoiler Alert !!!!!


     I am back, its been a while since I've posted a review I know, been busy but I am here now so with that let's get on with the review. So last time I wrote about a sequel to a hit movie, this time I am writing about the original the one that started these fun movies with awesome music. And if you enjoyed the sequel then your going to love the original just as much if not more so. I though it was fitting to write about the first film after talking about the second. With that said let's get started with the review of Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol. 1!

     Now if you enjoyed Volume 2, then you will love the original Guardians of the Galaxy just as much if not more because as we know the originals do tend to be better than the sequels, it just depends on the person. I think the first thing we need ti discuss is the very beginning. I mean  when one of the first scenes is the main character dancing around on an abandon planet using a lizard creature as a microphone, you know this is going to be one fun ride for two hours. Everything about the first scene is just perfect. The title sequence, the editing, the music, everything about it is great and it's a fun scene to watch. Plus Christ Pratt is an awesome dancer, although I don't thing there's anything that man can't do. He is truly amazing.

     Since we are talking about dancing, let's now talk about the music. I mean I think at least for most of us can agree that out of all the Marvel films that Guardians has the best soundtrack. Each song fits in what is exactly going on in the scene in which they are being played and the movie in general. For instance, the title sequence show us what kind of character Peter Quell is and what song is better than 'come and get your love.' Peter is this wacky, silly kind of guy that is looking out for himself and the song choice shows that off perfectly. Every song choice is just perfect, plus they are really catching song.

     Now we already are well aware that Christ Pratt is a brilliant choice to play Peter Quell. But the rest of the cast are just as good and they all play their characters wonderfully. The chemistry between Pratt, Zoe Saldana and Dave Bautista is great. They really play off each other well. Karen Gillian's Nebula really has that love-hate relationship with Saldana's Gamora. and it's awesome ti hope that these two can figured out their issues with each other and really become sisters. Even the voice actors are terrific, Bradley Cooper is freakin hilarious as Rocket, and Vin Diesel can make Groot the most bad ass character with only one line. The entire cast just comes together in a way that is both engaging and overall just fun to watch. They really made characters that probably not very many people knew popular and it's thanks to the actors and the director of the film James Gunn. Thank heavens Marvel rehired him to direct Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol. 3. Am I right?

     As much as I love volume two and I think volume three will be just as entertaining I do think that volume one was a good introduction ti these characters and the story line and I can't wait to see where they go with it in volume three, that is after we find out how they bring them back after the events of infinity war. Because as I am sure all of us know by now Rocket was the only guardian that survived and I highly doubt that volume three will be a Rocket solo movie after all its Guardians of the Galaxy, not Guardian.
