Review of Guardians of the Galaxy (2014) by Nikolayg — 05 Dec 2014

Ummm. No. This movie actually isn't much good. Way too many effects overload the story until at times the screen is a virtual moving abstract painting hardly making any visual sense at all. The tongue in cheek cuteness is way too self conscious. Zoe looked great in blue in Avatar, but covered in green in many of the shots she looks unattractive, which is something I never thought I would say about her. She's always been the sexiest actress around in my book. The story is your average save the world from a weapon of mass destruction plot, where the bad guy has absolutely no motive for being destructive. Maybe once it becomes available for a few bucks it might be worth a casual viewing from the corner of your eye when you're doing something else, but as I write this it's only downloadable for $20, and it is definitely not worth that.

I have to add something about the reviews posted here. In more than one review, a poster criticized the "dialogs" in the movie. There is no such word as "dialogs." The plural of dialog, is dialog. Just like the word "fish." And the better spelling is "dialogue." And I will agree, there was a lot of bad dialogue in the movie. But there were no "dialogs.
