Recently, Guardians of the Galaxy vol2 came out, and all the reviews I have seen, have given it never ending praise. And I have to say, it was disappointing to say the least. This movie was lazy. Of course with any Marvel movie it was visually incredible, but it is obvious 5 minutes in, that all the charm from the first movie is gone.
The first movie was full of interesting character development, intriguing world building, with a few hard hitting jokes in there. However, none of that was present in the 2nd volume, the jokes in this one often took over the story and character development, to a point in which no character felt like they should, because they were all trying to be the comic relief. There was also no world building in this one, as the story takes place on just 2 planets, and there is a good hour where nothing really happens, and the movie becomes full of cringeworthy jokes and stale storytelling which is pretty much non existent. This movie really rode the marvel bandwagon and is mediocre at best. I really don't understand the reviews saying this film is a master piece, people really seem to be settling for mediocrity.
