    Any movie over 120 minutes should have an intermission.

    You do that, I will go to the theater.

    i over heard several small kids ask their parents if they can go home like midway-2/3 of the movie.

    even worse, some forced their kids with bloated bladders to sit thru the credits for that useless post credit scene. is marvel gonna make any good post credit scenes anymore?

    9/10 for me. This was among the top tier of Marvel movies. I can understand the genre fatigue, though. There was quite a bit of mediocre content released since endgame. This isn't that. For those on the fence, it's definitely worth watching.

    My kid was born a fury Forrest creature and I've got a mini satin rabbit, a cat and goldfish. Yeah the animals did get me emotional.

    Thought it was the best GOTG movie by far.

    Could have done without any Adam Warlock.

    There are some SCARY looking creatures in this movie, very Snyder-DCU looking monstrosities.

    Nice! After watching the Antman snoozefest, I'm ready for a fun Marvel movie.

    Saw it today.. Pleasantly surprised it was that good .. But as I've said before , I think I'm out on Marvel after Secret Wars.. I just can't get into any of the new characters. I've tried but they seem so corny and cringy now..

    Clearly you weren't drunk or high enough when watching antman quantumcockmania. Or not enough mushrooms. Probably all of the above.

    Saw this today. Was pretty good. The animal cruelty stuff is a bit overblown, there was maybe one animal scene that was a bit much, but not to the point of needing to "protect your children."

    Oh yeah, forgot to add, even though GOTG isn't my FAV thing, the character development over the course of 3 films (and other films and XMAS show) is underrated. It's basically a cartoon, so, easy to dismiss. But the character dev is nuanced and polished, AND NOT just by superhero movie standards.

    GOOD LUCK (lol)

    Nah, it's not for kids at all. Nightmare fuel for little kids-
    an adorable bunny with scary robot legs and a giant metal monster mouth is terrifying when you're 5. Cute animals getting killed, a planet full of cute animal people getting destroyed. Main villain gets his face ripped off.
    Nah, brah. Not for kids at all.

    Properly rated at PG-13.

    back in my great grampa's day during the great war, these morbidly disfigured animals are cute.

    also... antman did it better

    He did. Ascetics weren’t his strong point or area of expertise.

    The movie almost felt like an experiment to see the reaction of certain scenes. Coincidentally, there was usually a bright white light after those scenes and I would look around and I could see everyone's faces. But it was a good movie, nonetheless.

    My favorite part of Marvel movies is Xerobull rationalizing weird things so that they kind of, sort of make sense.
