Finally got round to seeing Guardians 3… What a waste of 2 1/2 hours that was. I enjoyed the first 2, but 3 was just terrible. The “story” is awful. Numerous, cheesy, cliché bits thrown together here and there. Nothing interesting or very cohesive. Nothing ever had a sense of consequence.
Even the soundtrack couldn’t quite save it (though was easily the best part).
“Written and Directed by James Gunn”.
Good luck DC, you’re gonna need it.
I liked it fine (I liked the first two a little better), but I thought the soundtrack was a bit of a mess. Ultimately I thought it was a perfectly adequate way to wrap up the trilogy.
As for having a sense of consequence, you have seen a Marvel movie before, right? It’s always cotton candy, even though Rocket’s flashback storyline was quite grim.
