Overall Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 2 is a good Marvel action film filled with action, violence, fast paced stuff, some funny moments, tongue and cheek stuff, thrills and spills, team work, togetherness, loyalty, betrayal, explosions, things getting wrecked, blown up and destroyed, fall outs, arguments, disagreements, family, friendship, some weird looking people, monsters, creatures, different planets and universes, flashbacks to the past and many other things throughout the film.
So I will give Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 2 an overall rating of 3 out of 5 stars and in my opinion Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 2 is not as good as the first Guardians Of The Galaxy film from 2014 but it's still a good film and Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 2 is worth seeing if you like the first Guardians Of The Galaxy film, the Marvel films, the X-Men films, the Star Wars films, the Star Trek films amongst others. For anybody out there who doesn't know already but there is going to be a Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 3 going to be made so I say bring on Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 3 when it comes out in cinemas whenever that happens.
So if you get the chance to see Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 2 in the cinema then you should go and see it sooner than later.
