Like most movie sequels before it...

Rating: 6/10 (9 May 2017)

This movie leaves you wanting. Yes, the characters we've all grown to love are back, but any real dialogue and interaction are dampened by 2 things: *** too many frickin' crashes and explosions ***!! They really got in the way!Towards the end, I actually found them to be distracting. Add to it a lean plot, and too much weepy 'we're family' whining; those things really dragged on the movie. I found 2 additional things to be pointless. The first was killing off Yondu. Why?? The character added much to the first movie! He was wasted in this one. Second...what the hell was Sylvester Stallone doing in this movie?! Dumb. Overall, the movie tried a bit too hard. But, I wouldn't go do far as to say 'skip it'.
