Comedy and soundtrack are the highlights

Rating: 8/10 (29 April 2017)

Of all the Marvel films that I have seen over the last decade , The Dark Knight and Guardians of the Galaxy are my favourites. Because of this I was so looking forward to Volume 2 and I'm please to say I wasn't disappointed. This time the Guardians come across a mysterious being known as Ego , who claims to be the long-lost father of team leader Peter Quill . As Quill learns more about his past, the Guardians do battle with enemies old and new.
The reason I really enjoy these films have nothing to do with the story lines but more about the humour and soundtrack and volume 2 is ram packed full great tunes and brilliant one liners. Dave Bautista gets the best lines and he's laugh is infectious. From the brilliant opening credits where Groot is dancing to Mr Blue Sky by E.L.O while the guardians are fighting for their lives , you can't help smiling . loads of great obscure songs are squeezed into this film and there some inspired choices. Only when the film concentrated on the action in the second half of the film did I find myself getting a little bored not that the action wasn't great. Good stuff
