A big, loud, dumb sequel that feels like it’s taking the franchise down a dead end from which it will never return, but ridiculous action scenes and an iconic performance from Jason Momoa save the day.

A big, loud, dumb sequel that feels like it’s taking the franchise down a dead end from which it will never return, but ridiculous action scenes and an iconic performance from Jason Momoa save the day.
Despite the film’s bloated length and tendency to embrace nostalgia without an ounce of moderation, it’s a fitting and heartfelt sendoff for the beloved crew of misfit mercenaries.
The franchise is bordering on parody at this point, defying all laws of gravity, physics and logic.
Absolute junk that will die a quick death at the box office.
There’s not much craft nor artistry to “Guardians Vol. 2”, but it’s as good as the first movie and it’s still fun enough to not become a total disaster.
The films are thrilling but they are also all about family, and you can’t help but smile, buckle in, and hang on for the next ride.
