As
@ajrwdwgirl suggested, I was able to borrow the (Guardians) DVD from my local library, the other day. My review, promised to NYwdwfan:
Watched the Guardians (1st movie in the series), and I wasn't a fan. Not knowing any of the storyline before I watched the movie, I thought the storyline was very disjointed and hard to follow. Also, the film relied heavily on the continual (redundant) fighting scenes, and there was little time to attempt to even figure out why one group was fighting another--before they started fighting yet another group.
All I could follow in the movie was that the main character was trying to protect an orb, from other groups stealing it.
Pros to the film:
I really liked all the songs they selected.
I liked Groot and Rocket. Groot was a uniquely designed character, with a limited vocabulary. Rocket had some really funny lines.
Fyi:
(The other day, I signed out both the first and second Guardians movies from the library; but I doubt I'll watch the 2nd one, since I didn't care for the first one.)
