Guardians Of The Galaxy

Like I wrote in my last review. The next movie I was looked forward to watching was Guardians of The Galaxy and Hell yeah... What a watch it was. Take a bow James Gunn and Nick Perlman. Guardians of Galaxy, an underrated comic book adaptation given the proper amount of marketing and hype could turn out to be the success story of the Summer.

The movie is filled with amazing soundtracks, witty dialog, an adorable tree and a proper sit back and relax moments. The film has a very least continuity from the last Marvel Movie. The Collector and Thanos were the only recurring characters from the end-credit scenes. If you are a newbie to the Guardians of Galaxy, you can still watch this as this will just make you crave more for them and you will then end up looking at their back-story once you are back from the movie. The film is fast paced and will always keep you in splits. 

I am Groot : You will love this line every-time it is uttered. Now for the character reviews.

Rocket never sounded like Bradley Cooper. Hilarious and Unpredictable. And that Hangover reference. Ha Ha.

Groot, like its first, peek in the first trailer that suggested. Adorable. He is the most adorable one of the lot. And the mini-Groot groove was fun. Vin Diesel -> FTW

Chris Pratt, came a long long way from getting his teeth broken from Wanted. Wow, this guy came up tops.

Zoe Saldana, Seems people have a kick in watching her in a color-painted body. That she is cast as a character that is of the same mold of the one she had in Avatar. Wild and Action packed.

Dave: This guy pulled off the cheeky lines with ease. Probably he is one wrestler who can pull of an act. Remember HHH in Blade 3? (surprised)

The villains did not have much of a development in the movie. All they cared for is the lust for power. 

The soundtrack timing is impeccable and what a treat to listen to these songs all over again. Plus the theater acoustics was one of the best in town.

Looking forward to seeing more of Thanos and Collector (Of course) after their blink and miss appearance. And As they said, Guardians of Galaxy will return.

It would be too unreal to bring them in Avengers: Age of the Ultron. But again, you never know.

Marvel, I am so much in Love with you.

Song of The Movie: Hooked on a Feeling - Blue Swede

PS: Go ahead and listen to all songs in the movie. Epic ones. Takes me back to the past. Also, the End Credit Scene may confuse you (winks)

Ain't no thing like me, except me!

Captain America: The Winter Soldier

I missed out watching the First Avenger in a theater when it got released. Well, Captain America will always remain as the sanest/sensible one among all the other heroes of the Marvel Universe in the Avenger Lineup.

The promos of the movie already gave the viewers a peek over the neck and neck dual between the Winter Soldier and the Cap. Now for the movie, it carries a good pace with itself and the story-line brings the gap closer to Avengers: Age of the Ultron.

Chris Evans as Cap Am gained some extra pounds and is well toned to look more huge, especially in 3D . Chris Evans has come a long way from playing a goofy Pyro in Fantastic Four. Good to see him back donning the American Colors. His action execution has improved, thanks to the wonderfully choreographed stunts and possible competition from Seb Stan.Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow continues her role with a mysterious past and an aging future. She looks terribly old in certain parts of the movie. In other areas, she performs her stunts with ease and shares a good rapport with Cap Am.Anthony Mackie as Falcon, in his debut "superhero" movie, dons the Stark Industries powered Wings and assists them in the final stages of the movie. I personally think he deserved some more fire power as he looks a bit vulnerable in that part. Tony... Could you help him with that?

Sam J as Nick Fury. There is nothing to describe his character. We all know how Sam J takes any role and how easily he fits into a character like Nick Fury. Robert Redford as Pierce. Good to see Redford back again in the universe. Even if it was only for one movie I guess.

Sebastian Stan as the Winter Soldier. Perfect match for the Cap's moves. A level higher than the Super-soldier sometimes. Playing a villain to a superhero is not easy especially when it's in the ratio of 3:1. Would love to see what the future holds for him. Also the future of Rumlov's.

Good to see the Russo brothers keep the continuity of the Captain America adventure. Let's hope they do continue as they are raising the bar for themselves.

Stunt Directors and VFX: You guys are the unsung heroes of almost every movie in 4. It is high time people start taking you seriously. Hats Off.

Do not forget to sit through the end credits. They are 2 of them.

PS: Also watch out for Stan Lee as usual in his hide and seek role.

Now, for Guardians of Galaxy... Ooga Chaka Ookha Ookha !!!

Dialog of the movie: On your left !!!

The price of freedom is high... and it's a price I'm willing to pay!
