I was really looking forward to this one..
This is Marvels 'space opera'. It starts off with Peter 'Star Lord' Quill (Chris Pratt) as a small child being abducted by aliens after his mother has just died.. Cut to 26 years later and he's on a planet about to steal a mysterious orb. He escapes the clutches of Ronan (Lee Pace's) hoodlums lead by Korath (Djimon Hounsou) and heads off to some planet to sell it.
Along comes Rocket (a raccoon voiced by Bradly Cooper), his side kick Groot (a tree voiced by Vin Diesel) and Gamora (a green alien played by Zoe Salander). There's some shenanigans and they all end up in prison.. Where they bump into the fith member of the Guardians, Drax (a meat head played by Dave Bautista). To say anymore would be plot spoilers but needless to say they break out..
The problem with this film was that I was expecting this years Avengers.... And it wasn't.. That's not to say it didn't have it's appeal. It was funny, the action set pieces were very good and the CGi was as good as expected for a movie of this budget..
Overall a ***1/2 star movie
