So, ok, it’s true, I admit at the outset, I like movies that are set in outer space, feature extraterrestrials and laser fights, and show things blowing up. Those are qualities I seek in excellent film entertainment.
Guardians of the Galaxy delivers. It’s set in outer space and things blow up. There’s a gee-whiz spaceship fight. Chris Pratt is adorable and hot, both at the same time. The characters are cute and quippy. The plot moves along quickly and has a few moments that are almost touching.
This flick is great fun. It is what it is, and it is enjoyable.
