Review of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (2023) by Busiek — 11 May 2023
It's very good film, but now no one believes Marvel can make anything good. Better than anything MCU produced since "Endgame" (and we know that bar was very low except "Spider-Man: No Way Home").
Not the best part of Guardians' trilogy, but make GoG trilogy best in the MCU. Story of Rocket is very good (and quite disturbing), lots of emotions, but the rest is good too... Story arc for all characters is quite satisfying.
Nice visuals, good acting. Villain: he is sinister, terrifying and pure evil ("Kang, hello!?! He is better villain and looks like you, just saying"), but no background and good motivation make him little flat.
.. Music was always part of GOG, but this time too much, disconnected, unbalanced and sometimes quite annoying... Probably best "one-shot" scene of all MCU! Adam Warlock: he came out too late to be relevant.
I like tone shift of this movie, I like darker and more serious take to GoG, but they afraid to kill any of main characters... No agenda, just film - which is always GOOD!. Overall it's quite good goodbye: end of GOG (?) and James Gunn left MCU.
It's time to close this phase of MCU. Probably my last take to MCU till "Deadpool 3"...
