Marvel Studios have done it again with this superb production of ‘The Guardians of the Galaxy.’ Packed with great effects, a brilliantly witty script and lots of action to keep you on edge. Of course this is only to be expected following the last few marvels the studios have produced. It’s a catastrophic adventure happening in space with new characters for the next generation of inter galactic movie fans. If you’re as old as me and you enjoyed the original ‘Star Wars’films the first time ‘round, then you’ll love this, unless of course you have lost the ability to run away with your imagination. The story was easy to follow even a little predictable but that’s ok. A new set of Galactic heroes are formed when Peter Quill (Chris Pratt) discovers and steals a mysterious metallic orb. To begin with, they are an unusual bunch of misfits who don’t belong together, or even like each other. However, they have one thing in common. The fear of a Ronan, with his reputation for cruelty who wants the orb. He will stop at nothing to get it destroying anything in his way. Not only that but the orb in his hands could mean danger for the entire galaxy in his lust for power. Sound familiar? Ronan, (Lee Pace) looks much like a dark lord. A deep voice, an English accent and his regal attire, give him that certain aura that makes you want to hiss when he appears.
A wonderfully entertaining film making me laugh, cry and flinch. There is an open end for a sequel. Hopefully Marvel will keep up the good work.
