Guardians of the Galaxy
I just saw Guardians of the Galaxy, and even though it was a Saturday night, I got my seat. Front row, middle seat, where I get to experience the movie in full color and bigger than life, and Guardians is a movie that wants to be bigger than life. It succeeds more often than it fails. The Guardians is a good format, with the basic group of losers rising above their loserhood to do good. And they have collected allies along the way happy to help. Sometimes for a price. Other times because the Guardians put up a good example. The origin story of volume 1 was good, the middle daddy issues in 2 were amazing, and 3 is where it all leads to, once more with feeling. The Guardians have learned to live up to their name, and I have loved the journey.
