Didn't like it. Too goofy.

It became predictable, every time a serious scene was going on, I knew they would end it with a joke or something goofy. I couldn't take anything serious. Same complaint as Guardians of the Galaxy 2.

Yet even Guardians of the Galaxy knew it had to have a big serious moment without a joke. Groot in first one and Yondu in second at climaz had emotional moments with no undercutting joke. I don't mind humor, but every single time and the delivery was just awful.

 

"Let me tell a joke" something dramatic occurs "Now let me explain the joke for thirty painful seconds". You need more of a balance for payoff in jokes.  It never trusted itself or the audience to care and give them more in a movie of such high stakes with death and destruction.

I was talking just about the second Guardians movie though. The Pacman and Mary Poppins moments really didn't do it for me.
