It’s not just a film, it’s a blaze of glory, and that sense of daring is both the best thing about Vol. 3 and, occasionally, the worst.
Classic rock needle drops and showy, snaking, single-shot action sequences – both GOTG trademarks – abound in a picture that balances a slightly overstuffed storyline with mischief, humour and the biggest of hearts.

Best guardians of the galaxy film ever period. It might also be the best thing since infinity war. A must watch for every human being.

MCU’s movies post-Endgame have been…Rough. And I doubt I’m the first person you’re hearing that from. While their output of products have gone up, I feel the quality assurance has kinda gone down- they’re just a lot more…Dull. And forgettable. Cookie cutter even. But in spite of that, I held out hope for Guardians, because I trusted James Gunn to bring it home. And damn did he. In my eyes, legitimately- Guardians of the Galaxy 3 is the best movie of the entire franchise, hands down. And that comes down to one thing- intention. At every moment, Gunn’s voice comes out clearly in the finished product- every shot, every joke, every set, it all feels intentional. Calculated. Important. There’s never any point when I watched this where I felt like he phoned it in- nothing here was forced. And the characters, GOD, the characters- the Guardians became fan favorites because of these movies and man…This felt like such a powerful, cathartic way to end their stories. THEY MADE ME CRY ABOUT THE CGI RACCOON, GUYS! Just, beyond a shadow of the doubt, Guardians 3 was great. It was everything I wanted with a final outing for these characters.

The Guardians of the Galaxy deliver their swan song in Vol. 3 and it’s a rockin’ good time. Through Rocket’s tragic origin story we’re given a new appreciation for this whole family of lovable malcontents. And even though the plot has a bit too much going on, some of the humor feels stale, and Adam Warlock was woefully underused, the cast’s incredible chemistry and James Gunn’s soulful style remain unlike anything else in the MCU, and this movie sends them out on an emotional and action-packed high note.
For all its backsliding into bleak—what’s with torturing Bradley Cooper’s talking raccoon—this spirited summer kickoff delivers the requisite thrill ride and ends the GOTG trilogy with the sweet sorrow of saying goodbye to Star Lord and his wacky space dorks. It’s been a trip.
This one may be the most unruly and excessive of the trilogy, but it is as sweetly touching as any film with so many slimy, tentacled monsters in it could be.
The film undermines its initial sense of intimacy and momentum with a stop-and-start story structure that by and large exists to make as much room as possible for its characters’ banter.
The full-on assault on the audience’s tear ducts in much of “Guardians 3″ may be sincere, but the rhythms and pacing of the film never find the beat. We end up waiting for the reductive punchline, or for another round of wanton slaughter.
Amazing movie with great performances.I am going to watch this one again and cry again for rocket's backstory. The visual effects were also quite different from typical Marvel movies.

Well folks, the Guardians of the Galaxy are back again for what I assume is their last outing together, though you never know with the big superhero franchises these days. But if this is in fact going to be the last movie in the Guardians story then it’s a lovely send off that tries very hard to tug at the heart strings.
They’ve come a long way since their first appearance in 2014 and now in 2023 the much loved Guardians of the Galaxy are back. Despite still reeling from the loss of Gamora (Zoe Saldana), Peter Quill (Chris Pratt) rallies his team to defend the universe once more. But this time they must protect one of their own and they embark on a dangerous mission that could mean the end of the Guardians if they ****’s great to see the return of our favourite characters again, Peter Quill, Gamora, Drax (Dave Bautista), Mantis (Pom Klementieff), Groot (Vin Diesel), Rocket Raccoon (Bradley Cooper) and Nebula (Karen Gillan). Well whoever your favourite is, this is definitely Rocket’s movie. All the backstory into his character that had been hinted at in the previous movies is delved into for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 and it’s a heart wrenching and emotional story that will have the audiences fully invested and maybe some of you in tears too. The rest of what’s going on is the typical destruction in space with the group bickering at each other constantly. Lots of wacky scenes in space, filled with endless jokes and accompanied by the signature soundtrack that the Guardians of the Galaxy movies are known for. And sure not all of the jokes will work for everyone but enough of them do to get away with it but maybe not to justify the runtime. Because it is dragged out in places and honestly, any time it switched back to the present timeline I was just waiting for it to go back to the flashbacks with Rocket.
You can make or break a superhero movie with the choice of villain, get it wrong and the entire storyline suffers. Some go for a villain that you can almost sympathise with, Magneto, Killmonger, but for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 they went down the route of pure unadulterated evil. Chukwudi Iwuji as the High Evolutionary is a villain so heinous and sadistic that absolutely everyone can get on board to hate his guts. He might be one of Marvel’s darkest villains yet and yes I know Thanos etc. but this guy might just be worse. It’s certainly got a much darker theme running throughout than expected.
The Guardians of the Galaxy movies have stood out from some other comic book movies because of their strong focus on the characters. Now with the third instalment it’s another heartwarming story that isn’t overly reliant on tie-ins with other movies or tv shows and it’s a nice change from some of the other formulaic comic-book movies. There is more depth to the story than I was originally expecting and it’s definitely a great example on how to make an emotional and funny superhero movie for all the fans.
The Guardians of the Galaxy movies are comedic and great fun to watch. The two sequels may not quite be up there with the first movie but together they’re a solid trilogy. Recommended for the Marvel fans and a must see for all those who love the Guardians of the Galaxy.

I loved the first Guardians. It was one of the few movies I saw twice in the theater. It was the first Marvel movie that added a sense of humor and some color and it was fun af. The music was also a huge draw as it was well-used in every instance. No fat on that movie at all, no down time. It was enjoyable for every second. Guardians 2 was not as good, but still maintained that energy we loved. Guardians 3 was...okay. Obviously the humor toned down a bit for me as Peter Quill was going through some **** And of course the whole Rocket backstory. Besides that, though, everything was a little off. The music selection was great, but it was all over the place and didn't really resonate with the story. It was just there "hey, member this song??" The villain was kinda goofy and I didn't get why he was doing what he was doing. The plot, along with the soundtrack, was just all over the place again. Still the same vibe, but somehow diluted. Overall, it was a rather disappointing Marvel movie and there hasn't been a really good one since Infinity War for me (Endgame didn't do it for me).

Huge fan of the first film, the second one was so-so, and I think this is the worst of the bunch. The plot felt jarring, only a few bits of comedic lines work (largely with Drax), the characters felt like they took a step backward, and it tries too hard to be emotional without being emotional. And for the first time, the soundtrack did not feel like a proper part of the film. It felt tacked on and meaningless. All in all, I am glad I waited until it was streaming to see this.
