Can you catch lightning twice?

Rating: 8/10 (27 April 2017)

I think that when you have such a phenomenon like Guardians of The Galaxy it is really hard to duplicate its awesomeness, it's almost like catching lightning in a bottle, and the attempt to do it again without exploding. And that's why with a few exceptions most movie sequels tend to suck. Now, this movie didn't suck, in fact it was pretty good!
And, tho the first act was a bit prolonged it laid the foundations to one of the greatest story lines I have seen in Comic Book Movies as of yet, James Gunn takes us to a journey where he is not afraid to show us the silly and incredibly side of the Comic Books. A couple of easter eggs will take your breath away, but the story line is really smart and remarkably emotional at times, this felt almost as a conclusion to GoTG so I can't dare to think what the hell are they going to do for Guardians of The Galaxy Vol 3.
As you can see I'm not talking about the plot, and I'm not going to do so as I would not want to rob you from the roller coaster of emotions you are bound to experience when watching this outstanding movie, but I will say this: You thought they turned Comic Book Movies "grounded" feeling upside down in the first one with a walking tree and a gun wielding raccoon? Just wait to see what they do with a character called "Ego the Living Planet."
Was it as good as the first one? In all honesty it was probably not, but it did not disappoint either. My rating is 8/10. And tho it goes without saying... stay until the credits have stopped rolling.
