Here's my video review of Guardians of the Galaxy. In short, this movie is awesome. I expected it to be good, but I didn't quite expect the level of awesomeness my eyes were saturated in when the film began its opening sequence.
GOTG is a game changer for Marvel and comic book movies in general. It's succeed where many other comic movie adaptations have failed, managing to combine solid humor with heart and emotion, creating a fun viewing experience the likes of which I've not had during a summer movie since I was 5 years old.
While as a narrative it wasn't as strong as Captaing America: The Winter Soldier, it serves as a solid bit of entertainment on the lighter end of the spectrum. So many movies that come out now are dark, gloom, and doom. This is a nice change of pace from the status quo.
