    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      When Dave Bautista found out he got the role of Drax the Destroyer, he broke down in tears, overjoyed at getting a Marvel comic book role. He prepared for the role with an acting coach.
    • Goofs
      (at around 22 mins) When Quill is captured by the Nova Corp and he is in front of the window being reviewed, on the text on the window to the left they list his alias as "Space Lord" not "Star Lord". This is part of a running gag in the film where no-one can remember Quill's 'codename'.
    • Quotes

      [Groot grows a cocoon of branches to cover his friends]

      Rocket Raccoon: No, Groot! You can't! You'll die! Why are you doing this? Why?

      [Groot uses a thin branch to wipe away Rocket's tears]

      Groot: We are Groot.

    9/10
    Fun, Exciting and Soulfull
    First off I just wanted to say how amazing this movie is. Everything is perfect from the soundtrack, colors, characters, visuals, storyline and tone. This movie is funny but can be serious when it needs to be, the characters have actual personalities and they grow as well. The soundtrack fits and is absolutely perfect, the color scheme completely matches the tone of the movie and the storyline connects and makes sense. My only problem is probably the villain, he could come off as cliche but he wasn't that bad and was an alright villain. 9/10, definitely recommend, you don't even have to do like marvel to like this movie it's just so fun!
