"Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2" has exploded in word-of-mouth, and the little tree man has become so cute that all viewers have been captivated.

The popularity of superhero movies produced by Marvel in recent years can be called a phenomenon.

Produced by Marvel

However, if you only understand Marvel’s superhero movies as simple and crude popcorn blockbusters that straight men are keen on, then it will be a pattern.

Thinking back to three years ago, the story of those cheap and cute "diaos" superheroes who made jokes and slayed demons along the way, and then protected the Milky Way to learn from the west, made Marvel successfully transform.

It is not an exaggeration to describe "Guardians of the Galaxy" as "Marvel's clear stream".

Because of the emergence of this new series of films, it has indeed poured cold water into Marvel's hot pot of lava.

Before, we saw Marvel superheroes like this,

Then it appeared.

Marvel fans at that time had never seen this battle before. The majestic superheroes used awkward dances to resolve the battle.

And now, this "funny masterpiece" has not only returned, but has also successfully achieved a funny upgrade.

After reading this article, Sister Bitch will take you five minutes to understand this superhero movie with a unique style. (Minor spoilers in the article)

"Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2"

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2

From the beginning, Marvel has embraced An ambition to make alternative superhero movies.

Therefore, this series is more like a unique recipe created by director James Gunn for superhero movie fans using the exclusive formula of "a league of losers + nostalgic hits + funny jokes + space opera" A feast for the screen.

Today’s sequels still continue the excellent production of movies produced by Marvel. Not only has the special effects been upgraded, but it has also maintained a good reputation.

The Rotten Tomatoes rating is only slightly lower than the first film by 5%, which is especially rare for a sequel movie.

The reputation on Douban has bucked the trend, rising from 8.0 in the first part to the current high score of 8.3.

Not only has the reputation been incredible, but the film’s box office has also taken the world by storm.

The first-day box office in North America took in US$56.2 million, easily winning the North American box office title that day.

In China, the film has also firmly topped the box office list with the huge appeal of the series, with a box office of 340 million in three days of release.

It is not easy for a superhero movie to achieve such outstanding results.

The plot of the sequel continues the setting of the first part. In this episode, the members of the first group of the Milky Way travel across the universe and continue their epic adventure in outer space.

The movie begins with a battle between the Guardians of the Galaxy and alien creatures.

Members of the Guardians of the Galaxy were hired by the Supreme Beings to find stolen valuable energy batteries.

Starting from this fierce opening show, the movie has set a tone of "funny and unconventional".

People are going to hit you in the chest with their little fists!

And this is all thanks to a character in the film who is so cute that a girl can’t help herself - Baby Groot.

Groot, originally the most powerful member of the "Guardians of the Galaxy", sacrificed himself in the first film to save his teammates.

As a result, his body shape and IQ also changed back to that of a baby, and he also lost the memory of his original adult state.

This little tree-man baby is the most adorable part of the film.

After the opening show, Star-Lord and his team handed the energy battery to Ayesha, the high priest of the Supreme Star.

In return, Ayesha gave their prisoner Nebula (the sister of the heroine Gamora, whose father is Marvel's ultimate villain Thanos) to the Guardians of the Galaxy.

However, Rocket Raccoon quietly stole the energy battery after completing the mission, causing Ayesha to launch an entire army to hunt down the Guardians of the Galaxy.

At the critical moment, a mysterious figure appears and instantly destroys the Supreme Star Legion that was chasing Star-Lord and others.

And this mysterious figure is none other than the elder of the Celestial Clan, Ego, played by Kurt Russell.

Ego claimed to be Star-Lord's biological father and led Star-Lord, Gamora and Drax the Destroyer to his homeland.

The perseverant Ayesha hired a team of predators headed by Yondu (Star-Lord's adoptive father in the first film) to continue hunting down the Guardians of the Galaxy.

Rocket, Baby Groot and Nebula encountered Yondu while trying to repair the ship.

On Ego's planet, Star-Lord gradually realized that Ego was not the father he expected.

In the end, after Yondu’s reminder and the help of Egg’s servant Mantis, Star-Lord and others finally discovered the truth about Egg’s search for his son.

The members of the Guardians of the Galaxy will also resist Ayesha's pursuit while preventing Ego from realizing his declared destiny.

If the theme of the first part of "Guardians of the Galaxy" is "adventure", then the second part is more like the screenwriter applying the classic tragic proposition of ancient Greece:

Patricide.

The biggest stunt of this sequel is that Star-Lord's biological father, who has been searching for many years, finally appears.

In the first film, Star-Lord's mother once described Star-Lord's father in the hospital bed:

He is like an angel!

The mysterious man who is "like an angel, exuding pure light" in the words of Star-Lord's mother finally explains his background in this movie.

Ego in the movie claims to be a Celestial. They possess powerful power and interfere with and influence everything in the universe.

In the original comics, Ego, also known as Ego, is a planet with self-awareness and a powerful villain.

Inexplicably, I thought of the funny expression...

This character is played by the veteran tough guy movie star Kurt Russell.

You may think he looks familiar, because he is Mr. Nobody in "Fast and Furious 7 and 8".

Plus Vin Diesel who voices Groot (although the bitch can't tell it's him at all).

Two members of the "Fast and Furious" series were "reunited" in another way in the Marvel Universe.

"I am Groot ~"

Interestingly, in this sequel to "Guardians of the Galaxy", Star-Lord and others also uttered the slogan "family".

No wonder some netizens complained:

With the two "Quick" members coming, "family" is also mentioned!

GIF

Although this statement is biased, it points out the important theme of this sequel.

Compared to the strategic cooperation of the Avengers, the Guardians of the Galaxy, although very "unreliable", are indeed more like a family.

Director James Gunn once said that in his eyes, "Guardians of the Galaxy" is not a conventional superhero blockbuster:

"It is a family comedy and a drama. , an action movie that just happens to take place in space, and the protagonist has superpowers.”

After experiencing a life without father’s love for more than thirty years, the protagonist of the series, Star-Lord, has always had a deep love for his father. Full of desire.

Returning to his father's planet, he felt cared for like never before.

Until Star-Lord’s father personally told him the tragedy that he and his mother fell in love but could not stay together, and even did unforgivable things.

So Star-Lord finally had to choose to have a decisive battle with his biological father.

Despite such a tragic ending after the father and son recognized each other, the screenwriter and director still found a trace of tender sustenance for the audience.

This character is Star-Lord’s adoptive father-Yondu.

Yondu was originally hired by Star-Lord's father to take his children to his planet, but Yondu, who had a conscience, adopted Star-Lord instead.

Animation

This character was not given much characterization in the first film and only appeared as a villain, but his performance in the sequel is even more eye-catching. The leader, The qualities of a hero and a father are clearly revealed.

Although Yondu is not Star-Lord's biological father, he has fulfilled the duties of a father since he was a child, and even sacrificed everything to save Star-Lord.

GIF

At the end of the film, the scene of Yongdu’s sacrifice made Sister Bitch cry several times.

In addition to superheroes sacrificing their lives for justice, as a unique comedy superhero movie under Marvel,

the film also takes comedy and amusing to the extreme.

In addition to Groot, the tree man baby who is always cute, there is also the "laughing, honeyed and weird" big Destroyer Druid who fully displays his talent for comedy in the film. Lux and the new character Mantis.

Mantis is a new character added in this film, played by Pom Klementieff (who looks Asian from the front), who is of mixed race.

Although Drax, a big man with "unusual aesthetics" has always complained about her ugliness, the girl is still beautiful under normal makeup.

In the movie, she is a humanoid creature transformed from a mantis larvae by Ego. Her only abilities are to perceive emotions, soothe emotions, hypnotize, and make jokes with Drax.

Growing up on Ego's planet, the mantis girl who lacks social common sense and the stubborn Drax are really a match made in heaven.

After watching it, Sister Bitch is inexplicably looking forward to the wonderful and hilarious sparks they will create in their future collaborations.

Of course, comedy and gags alone are far from reflecting the sincerity and creativity of the film.

Half of the reason why "Guardians of the Galaxy" is unique in the Marvel Universe is because of its "80s retro style at its core."

In particular, Star-Lord’s tape is a memory of a generation.

Regarding the first "Golden Song", which runs throughout the film and was highly praised by global audiences, director James Gunn said that the second film still adopted the production method of the first film and wrote the script. The second volume of "Golden Songs" has been implanted into it.

So the second volume (VOL.2) in the title comes from this.

Every golden song in the movie can be regarded as a classic. I am not a professional music fan, so I will only briefly introduce two more important ones.

Brandy (You're a Fine Girl)

This is Star-Lord's mother's favorite song, and it is also what Star-Lord and his biological father Ego both consider "the most beautiful song on earth." Great song” (actually one of the director’s favorite songs).

At the beginning of the movie, the young Star-Lord’s parents were listening to this song while driving. After Star-Lord and his son recognized each other, the two became closer through this song.

BRANDYLooking Glass - Looking Glass

The lyrics tell about a girl named Brandy who fell in love with a sailor, but the sailor’s heart longed for the stars and the sea, so he had to leave Brandy behind...

This also reflects the idea of ??Star-Lord's father abandoning his wife just to conquer the universe.

Father and Son

During Yondu's funeral, the song "Father and Son" slowly played, which was very appropriate for the occasion.

All the times, that I've cried

Keeping all the things I knew inside I will keep it all deep in my heart

And it's hard It's not easy

But it's harder to ignore it But it's harder to ignore it

If they were right--I'd agreeI admit that sometimes other people's lives are right

But it's them--they know But that's other people, it's the life they pursue

Not me. Now there's a way , and I know It's not me, now I know what to do

That I have to go away I will leave your life and go out on my own

I know, I have to go. Yes, it’s time for me to go...

The song is intended to express the generation gap caused by the gap in concepts between the younger generation and the older generation and to describe the inseparable family love between father and son. A few lyrics make People are moved.

And this is probably what Yondu wants to say to Star-Lord.

Of course, as a superhero movie produced by Marvel, there are always various tributes.

For example:

Careful friends must remember the funny scene at the end of the battle:

When Star-Lord fought with his father, he controlled the "god" in his body The power “gradually became a character in the Pac-Man game.

Animation

No image found, but the specific screen is as shown.

It can be seen that Star-Lord must be a die-hard fan of this game.

There are many such tribute movies, and attentive viewers can look for them carefully. This is where the fun of enjoying Marvel movies lies.

Finally, a special reminder, please insist on watching the entire movie amidst the hostility of the cleaning lady, because——

There are 5 easter eggs at the end of the movie! ! !

Sister bitch, let me take a closer look at it.

Easter egg 1: Yondu’s successor

Although Yondu ended his career, in the easter egg, one of Yondu’s lieutenants, Grayling, inherited Yondu’s “shark fin” training "Whistle Arrow".

Easter egg 2: The previous generation of "Guardians of the Galaxy" assembles

In "Guardians of the Galaxy", the coolest walk-on player in the entire film is Stallone!

He plays a raider captain named Starkar, who seems to have a high status.

This character is actually the prototype of the superhero Starhawk in the comics, and is also one of the earliest members of the Guardians of the Galaxy.

The old version of the Guardians of the Galaxy comics was born around the 1970s. The protagonists include "Starhawk" Starkar Ogor, the mutant with telekinesis "Colonel Victory" Astro, Members include the Plutonian Martinez with a crystal body, the muscular Jovian Charlie-27, and the familiar Yondu.

And this is also the director's tribute to the earliest "Guardians of the Galaxy" comics.

In addition, in addition to Stallone's Star Eagle, Michelle Yeoh, who wore thick smoky makeup, played Aletta O'Gor. The bitch almost didn't recognize her at first.

In the last Easter egg of the movie, Yondu's sacrifice allowed these old team members to gather together.

As for whether the old and new generations of "Guardians of the Galaxy" will meet in the future in subsequent plots, Sister Bitch is very much looking forward to them "making big news"!

Easter egg 3: The villain—Adam

At the end of the film, after the High Priest was defeated by the Guardians of the Galaxy, she created a secret weapon—Adam.

Animation

Adam was also one of the early members of the Guardians of the Galaxy, and had previously appeared as an easter egg in "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 1"

That's right , that’s the cocoon~

His strength, endurance, and sensitivity are all superior to ordinary people, and he can also fly.

Since it appears in the easter egg, he should be the villain that Galaxy Tiandan will face in the future! However, he is the big villain in the later stage~

Easter Egg 4: Young Groot

I have to say that the whole movie is so cute with Baby Groot, although he Still only has one line: "I'm Groot".

GIFs

In the easter egg, Baby Groot has grown up, likes to play mobile phones, video games, and even wraps up some tissues...

Well , he is indeed a rebellious teenager.

Animation

Easter Egg 5: Stan Lee remains unchanged

There is an old saying in the Marvel Universe:

Flowing water Super hero Stan Lee.

Some of the Marvel movies in which Stan Lee guest-starred

The old man even appeared twice in this film, once when Rocket Raccoon Yondu and others were jumping among the stars. in the background, and another time in the final Easter egg.

The old man who guest-starred in "Guardians of the Galaxy"

Having said all that, I just want to say that this is an extremely good commercial blockbuster.

Animation

It has all the routines of a commercial film, with gorgeous special effects scenes and hilarious characters. Under the comedy shell, there is no lack of warmth and sadness at the core.

Animation

Although the first half of the story is a bit weak, such as:

The supreme clan in the movie is actually more like soy sauce, but only when the director feels it is necessary When there is a big battle scene, just running over and intervening, it actually doesn't help much in advancing the plot.

However, these shortcomings in the script do not prevent the audience from enjoying the two-hour movie.

GIF

It must be admitted that "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2" is not a movie without shortcomings.

But Sister Bitch feels that for a commercial movie, the laughter in the cinema has already proved everything.

Sister Bitch gave this film four stars, two stars for the production of the film, one star for the cute Groot, and one star for Yondu.
