Movie Review: Guardians of the Galaxy

Hey there DJ Dizzy here back in action. Though its been a long time coming I said that I was going to do this, a review of perhaps one of the most talked about films this year: The Guardians of the Galaxy.





For those who haven't seen it its a sci-fi action adventure comedy about a group of 5 strangers that are made up of an assassin, a fugitive, a loose cannon fighter, & two thugs. Their mission to retrieve an orb with what's called an infinity stone which also acts as a peace treaty between two tribes. Our motley crew of heroes consists of:













Peter Jason Quill a.ka. Star- Lord: The human leader of the team who discovers that he's also an alien prince through his mother. He is constantly pursued by bounty hunters as he then goes off into space to retrieve an orb that's said to house a great power. Played by Chris Pratt.










Gamora: A surgically enhanced assassin who's parents were killed by the ruthless space tyrant Thanos & was forced to be taken in by him as his daughter. Because of this she has earned a bad reputation. She acts as the team's muscle. Played by Zoe Saldana









Subject 89P13 a.k.a Rocket Raccoon: A sharp shooting raccoon who's considered an experiment gone awry who's wanted for multiple theft including car jacking. But despite this he remains loyal to the crew & acts as the second in command. Voiced by Bradley Cooper.















Groot: A human like tree alien who acts as the team's muscle as well as Rocket's bodyguard. Though his vocabulary is made up of three words (I am Groot.) What he lacks in speech he makes up for with incredible strength & loyalty. Voiced by Vin Diesel.













Drax The Destroyer: The loose cannon member of the crew who lost his family to Thanos though he believes his daughter alive. Because of this he's out for revenge against Thanos & joins the crew in order to get it. But despite he's mean strike he has a good heart. Played by Dave Bautista.


Now as for the premise of the movie they're trying to deliver an orb that contains a stone called an infinity stone to the Nova Corps & then that's when Ronan The Accuser gets involved by teaming up with Thanos & his other daughter Nebula to stop them from making the delivery. Ten all hell breaks loose when Ronan double crosses them & them takes the orb for himself & now these unlikely heroes have to ban together & stop him & save the galaxy.






What to look for  there are some memorable lines that I'm sure you might want to quote not to mention some memorable scenes to go along with it. As for some favorite characters for me I have to say that Rocket & Groot really stole the show for me. The main questions I have about this movie would be since when is Ronan the Accuser considered a bad guy? Because last I remember he was a good guy. Also since when is Nebula considered to be Thanos' daughter? Because last I remember she was his SISTER. Lastly since when is Howard the Duck considered a hero?


There are also some outtakes that'll really get you laughing as you'll see here.

But all in all I highly recommend this movie & I give it a perfect 10. Though it may put you in mind of Star Wars with some  of the ships & the special effects but I guarantee you that you'll love it.
But with that said I should get going let me know what you think of this epic movie.


Here's a little something from the movie itself.
