There are always some fun aliens to look at, but you might not follow or care what's happening.Ĭonsidering the name of their team, it might have helped if the Guardians of the Galaxy had done a bit more galaxy-guarding. Watching it is like flicking channels between a whole Star Trek TV series and a whole Star Wars TV series. Guardians Vol 3 is two and half hours long, and it's so chaotic and convoluted that it feels twice that long. Still, maybe the studio should have reined him in a little. But they're the least weird thing about Guardians Vol 3.

They're an endearingly odd bunch, by anyone's standards. Its heroes are a ragtag band of mercenaries comprising Peter Quill, aka Star-Lord (Chris Pratt), a manchild who is obsessed by soft rock anthems Rocket (voiced by Bradley Cooper), a tough-talking raccoon Gamora (Zoe Saldaña), a grumpy, green-skinned assassin Nebula (Karen Gillan), a grumpier cyborg Groot (voiced by Vin Diesel), a walking tree Drax (Dave Bautista), a hulking warrior who doesn't understand irony and Mantis (Pom Klementieff), a wide-eyed empath with antennae. The franchise was always on the fringes of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, of course. The horror shocker that set off a culture war Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3 is a film with the colossal budget of a typical Marvel blockbuster, but the sensibility of the low-budget cult horror comedies that Gunn made with Troma at the start of his career. We'll probably never know how the negotiations went, but it seems likely that one of Gunn's conditions for returning to work was that he be allowed to do absolutely anything and everything he wanted. Gunn was then fired by Disney, the company behind Marvel Studios' superhero films, but because the cast and fans of Guardians of the Galaxy stood by him, he was eventually rehired. Shortly after the release of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2 in 2017, someone made a fuss about the tasteless jokes that its writer-director, James Gunn, had made years earlier on Twitter.
