Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol 3 Review: The Best Marvel Movie In Years
When Guardians of the Galaxy debuted in 2014, it was the somewhat obscure heroes who served as entertainment between the shocking scenes of Iron Man and friends. Writer and director James Gunn has directed several horror films, an ultra-violent comic, a standalone comic, and two Scooby-Doo movies. The leading man, Chris Pratt, was best known as a promoter of parks and recreation . But here there are external factors. You have nothing and everything to prove, and Guardians of the Galaxy has taught every comic book movie that there are no limits to how funny and funny, but still very honest, you can be with your characters.
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is a farewell to the franchise (at least from Gunn's perspective, since he's since moved to DC), a reminder that they actually delivered some of Marvel's best shows. What Gunn did here isn't rocket science (raccoon); He simply weaves and weaves characters into a story told with great care and devotion. And it's clearly a story told in a world that still feels almost entirely self-contained, elegantly detached from the larger MCU narrative. Part 3 features Marvel's first bomb (which landed at the perfect time) and a heist on a fleshy moon, with the Guardians jumping into primary color, 2001: A Space Odyssey's spacesuits .
Gunn, who also wrote the film's screenplay, has repeatedly said that the end of his trilogy centers on the intergalactic gang, the violent Rocket Raccoon, voiced by Bradley Cooper. This is certainly true in one sense. Much of the action here revolves around discovering the true source of the Guardians' rockets, which are tied to the experiments of a Galactic High Evolutionary (Chukwoodi UG, a powerful but evil villain). We get a lot of feedback about the rocket. Watch out for Grogu, as your business empire collapses and he finds his true family amid his innocent and deeply traumatizing experiences, voiced by Linda Cardellini, Asim Chaudhary and Michaela Hoover. As you can imagine, this is a motivational movement.
However, this is disappointing in comic book movies; Volume 3 is fully invested in not only how its main characters have developed thus far, but how they will continue to develop. No one is left behind. No one gets lost. Apart from the main plot, it is a breakup film about coming out of a previous relationship and realizing that they have moved on. While, in this case, it's the previous Gamora who has to face Star-Lord (who Pratt reminds us can be quite charming when the role calls for it), Zoe Saldana's Gamora is actually an alternate universe version with no memories. for him
Part 3 is also about the friend behind all the jokes, a complex person whose life still has value and meaning (it's true that Pom Klementieff and Dave Bautista's Gremlaug Mantis are literally more Drax than Drax: funniest and sweetest material). of the film). It is pressured to be covered with gold and completely crushed; Made to be the perfect man, Will Poulter's Adam Warlock turns out to be the child of Elizabeth Debicki's troubled mother, Aisha.
It doesn't matter who the characters are, aliens, psycho dogs (voiced by Maria Bakalova-Cosmo) or grown men who weren't so emotional in the 80s. The movie Guardians has always been about the fact that most of us are like putty, shaped not only by where we come from, but also where we are and where we can go. Part 3 fans should be excited about what's to come in Gunn's new role as co-president of DC Studios. For Marvel, it will be their loss.
