I can get behind these misfits

Rating: 7/10 (27 December 2014)

I'll admit right now that I did not expect much from GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY. Never heard of the comic and didn't have hopes of any height. But they turned all that around with the trailer (they knew Chris Pratt's charisma would sell this). What's really cool is that every character had personality beyond just Pratt, and I really dig the movie's sense of humor; some really good one-liners here. And I love that Quill's Walkman played such as important role in the movie. It was a nice character touch. The fight (and dogfight) scenes were exciting, it didn't take itself too seriously and it made for a good time at the movies.
Bring on the sequel.
