It's hard to imagine how attractive a movie that lacks good music can be. Listen to American soul music master Sam Cooke's "Bring It on Home to Me" (the engagement song between Star Lord and Kamora in the movie) to learn about a new movie that makes good use of good music.
Watching a movie is a turnip cabbage has its own love, and it is difficult to have a consistent standard for good and bad. In the fast-paced, busy city life, there is a kind of movie worth walking into the cinema, that is, good looks (picture), good sound (music and sound effects), fun and relaxed, the pursuit of pure audiovisual enjoyment, no need to burn the brain blockbuster.
"Guardians of the Galaxy" should be such a movie that does not look tired, funny and happy.
Last weekend, the newly assembled "Guardians of the Galaxy 2" was released, once again opening the journey to dominate the screen, fans who have seen the first part know that the word of mouth is very good, and this sequel has also received high praise, known as the best sequel in Marvel history.
Just a few days after the release, I brushed "Guardians of the Galaxy 2" twice, is it really boring? Of course not, but I thought it was really eye-catching, so I revisited it with children who like space and robots.
I found that with more and more space-related movies, the rise and fall of artificial intelligence in reality, the post-00s seem to have a special preference for robots, space and intelligence, and scientific and technological life is getting closer and closer to us.
01
Funny League is hilarious
If you have seen the first part of "Guardians of the Galaxy", you will know the ins and outs better, and the interaction between the members adds a lot to this movie. "Guardians of the Galaxy" is a funny and funny style, it tells the story of the members of the Guardians through the universe, the adventure of outer space, they must fight together, protect each other, and at the same time to solve the mystery of Peter Quill's life.
Along with various fights, jokes from the Guardians of the Galaxy are also endless.
For example, in the opening scene, Little Groot appeared, he danced in front of the camera with the golden song, all kinds of cuteness, teammates fought fiercely behind him, while fighting and having to take care of him, it felt like he was playing a monster and doing a part-time job while being a nanny.
The terrier around the rocket raccoon is even more laughable out of the abs, foxes, mice, puppies, red pandas, triangle faces... The title alone can make a whole bunch of names, especially the love elf Mantis, who sees Rocket licking his paws and asks the big Drax: Can I touch your puppy? What a bad thing to do with blue rain star city!
As the funny person in charge of the whole film, the image of rocket raccoon is actually similar to the popular "Teddy Bear" in the past, with animal appearance but can think and move like a human, which in itself has a strong attraction to the audience, not to mention that the animal will also lose his temper and say paragraphs, just like you will always have a poisonous tongue and arrogant friend around you, so that the audience can have a sense of intimacy with it. Many times this film relies on the broken mouth of the rocket raccoon to support the scene, although it is a bit hard and drags on the feeling of time, but it does not make the audience feel uncomfortable.
Of course, the funniest part is still to hand over to little Groot and let him find something, from the brave panties to the big table, this little guy's IQ can definitely please all creatures!
In the advertising world, there is a famous abc rule, that is, animal (animal), beauty (beauty) and child (child), this set of laws seems simple, but in fact, it is based on a deep human nature, and the movie "Guardians of the Galaxy 2" is a good reference to this law. The cute Groot juvenile is like a baby who has just learned to walk, which makes people feel pity at first glance, and firmly grasps the attention of the audience as soon as it appears.
The usual emotions of anger, sadness, joy and so on appear cute and vivid under the performance of its childish appearance, so that as soon as it appears, many viewers can't help but laugh out loud.
No matter how dangerous this funny alliance is, it remains optimistic, enough to make people's mouths rise to watch the whole scene.

Visual effects are leveraged
The visual effects are not to say, as wonderful as expected. Whether it is the rainbow light wave that fights the monster at the beginning, or the cosmic fireworks that bravely celebrate the funeral at the end, it is dazzling and abnormal, and the beauty is extreme.
The remotely controlled spaceship of the planet Sovilin, like a bee team, chasing the Guardians of the Galaxy in the vast galaxy, the level of tension and excitement can definitely kill the "dense phobia" patient!
After the courage to change the new head mark, the use of red arrows shuttle to kill all the traitors on the spaceship, the old belt is strong, the slogan sounds, the red arrows fly where the bloody rain, super bull break!
Speaking of bravery, I have to say that his arrows are the coolest weapons in "Guardians of the Galaxy", and his sharp arrows freely controlled by the whistle are extremely fast, indestructible, and have quite a brilliant performance. As early as the first part, Courage showed the terrifying combat power of this arrow. The ornament-like thing above Yongdu's head is the controller of this arrow.
Camorra and Nebula, sisters who love and kill each other from the first to the second, although the two people do not look like humans, but their moving figures are obvious to all, so although the scene of the two people's "sisterly love" is not embarrassing in this movie, watching beautiful women compete is also a kind of enjoyment for the audience. The part where Nebula pilots a plane to hunt down Kamora can't help but think of Gary Grant, who was chased by pesticide machines in "North by Northwest". This meme is a pleasant surprise to be placed in this nostalgic movie.
There are five Easter eggs at the end of "Guardians of the Galaxy 2", don't rush to leave after watching the positive film. For me, the biggest Easter egg is Stallone, who appears in the middle of the film. He made two appearances, no more than a minute each time, but the producers gave him special treatment, and he was one of the few actors who did not do special effects makeup. In marvel movies, it is quite rare to have a naked face, which is a treatment that only the protagonist and the special actor will have.
Although the storyline of the blockbuster is not full enough, Marvel still tells it in its own way, so that 136 minutes are not filled with dazzling special effects and unexpected jokes.

The song is more than addictive
Equally endearing and addictive to the film are the hits— supposedly hand-picked by Rock 'n' Roll Man and director Gunn, who are star-lords' only connection to Earth, allowing him to constantly remind himself of his identity as an Earthling.
The director's strong personal style of song selection, no star blessing of the retro cassette cover... "Guardians of the Galaxy" soundtrack has belonged to the minority from the beginning of its birth, but with the popularity of the cosmic fun squad in the galaxy, the film's soundtrack has also become a popular song, and has won good results in succession, the first one is good. Here's a selection of three beautiful pieces of good music to sound like!
The soundtrack of the movie named after "Awesome Mix", inspired by the tape compilation album carried by "Star Lord", is different from the happy and bright rhythm of the first episode, this time from the nostalgic style of the "Great Empire of Dance Music Volume II" left by Star Lord's mother, so it pays more attention to the emotional aspect of the characters in the selection of songs.
The film features the 1978 classic avant-garde electric light orchestra's 1978 hit "Mr. Blue Sky," which was also the opening dance of Groot Jr.
In addition, "My Sweet Lord" sung by Beatles member George Harrison is also related to Iago.
It also features country rock band Silver's best-selling single "Wham Bam Shang-A-Lang."
Let's follow star-lord's walkman and listen to these 1970s-1980s songs again. More sensory sound and picture experiences are worth your experience in the theater.
Laughter, tears, and hi-dots, this group of the most "unreliable" funny geeks have become a team with distinct personalities with an anti-traditional hero image.
In addition to the Funny Marvel-quality plot, I was impressed by the fantastic visual effects and the film's selection of music, and I think it was also a guarantee of the success of Guardians of the Galaxy 2.
Finally, there is an important detail worthy of admiration that has to be mentioned, that is, the subtitles of the film are very careful, and a film that is not even the subtitles are vivid and not boring, which is undoubtedly a work of conscience.
