I went to go see ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ and it didn’t disappoint!

In my past post I mentioned that I was very keen to see this movie, it had gotten great reviews and plenty of hype all around. The film was definitely one of the better films that has come out of Marvel Studios, but is it the best ? I went to watch it with two of my mates and they both agreed that it was the best, but personally, I think that it doesn’t beat the Avengers. For me the Avengers just had so much more hype around it; I mean, it took about 5 movies to get there! And it had characters that I grew up with and loved, unfortunately i’m not so familiar with the ‘Guardians’.

Also mentioned in the reviews, was it the funniest movie to come out of the marvel studios? I found these comments to be misleading. Yes it does have its funny bits and could well be the funniest marvel movie, but it is not a comedy! There are classic funny parts in the film, many of which I find are just recreations of happenings in other films such as the Avengers. It is funny but that is not the main point of the film.

Final thing I would say is it is much more enjoyable if you have an understanding of the comic book marvel universe in a childish love, it just makes you a happier viewer when watching it.
