I’m going to be an outlier here, and I hate to be. Like I said, I absolutely loved the first two films. I wish I felt the same about the third.
Spoiler!
It wasn’t bad…but I didn’t enjoy my time watching it. My expectations were low and in check, and with the Radiohead acoustic tune starting it off with Rocket (the raccoon, I knew it!) singing, I thought we were in for cinematic greatness. Unfortunately, the rest of the movie mostly bored me with laughs feeling strained and the songs just never bring as impactful as in Vol 1 and 2.
I certainly enjoyed Rocket’s backstory, but didn’t enjoy not having Rocket in the rest of the movie. I also didn’t like how most of the characters were separated from each other instead of being a motley crew together. The one on one dynamics just didn’t work that much for me.
I’m thankful that I didn’t have a lot resting on this movie for me for the story, since it doesn’t have too much to do with the previous titles. I still love the first two and I’ll always have that.
I’m not trying to be a hater or take the mood down for anyone else who enjoyed the movie. To be fair, I’m really over Marvel movies in general and it was only time until my fatigue crept into the greatest of the bunch.
