Really disappointed...

Rating: 5/10 (30 November 2014)

After all the hype and amazing reviews I was expecting a lot more.
After watching it for about 10 minutes I realized this film was not gonna be as good as I'd hoped.
The opening sequence was like dozens of others sci-fi movies I've seen. The storyline and dialogue are painfully predictable and seem forced. It's not original at all.
The "bad guys" are so overly evil it's ridiculous. The intended humor didn't come across and the only times I laughed were when the situation was unintentionally funny.
Acting was not great either, I was especially disappointed with Karen Gillan who I loved on Doctor Who but failed to convince as Nebula.
I did like the CGI stuff, especially Groot. The music was beautifully chosen and the only thing that made an impression.
It's not the worst sci-fi film I've seen but definitely doesn't live up to the hype.
