Heartwarming and extremely entertaining

I had a great time watching this! Vol2 is as charming and funny as the first one and i appreciated how they devoted time into expanding the GotG universe and exploring character development/relationships instead of trying to come up with a plot that would tie in the Guardians to the general MCU. I personally enjoyed the Rocket/Groot/Yondu part of the story a bit more than Peter's and Gamora's personal story lines. It was more interesting to me and Rocket and Yondu freaking MVPd both their humorous but also their heavily emotional scenes. The Drax-Mantis dynamic was also a great addition. As for the villain part of the story...well... I did not really care for the Sovereign Race sidestory and i wished that after their role as plot device was done and over we would not see them again but the post- movie scenes suggest otherwise. Pity. And Ego. I don't know. A typical megalomaniac who wants to destroy the universe just as many others before him. Though it still baffles me how a being who began its personal quest because it was eager to not be alone decided that its purpose in the universe was to be all there is. It sounds kind of stupid???
