So ok, better than I'd been lead to believe with some of the critic reviews prior to release.
Gotta say unfortunately that it's not Pratt's best ever performance but hell, the source material just isn't Guardians, so unfair to compare really. Overall it was solid performances by all the cast and of course JK was excellent. The standout performance was Strahovski though - she was exceptional.
Pretty awesome directing for McKay's first live action feature too.
This is definitely a great popcorn movie. Had some great moments and some genuine surprises. It's not going to change your perspective on the world but then it's not designed to. I did feel it missed some opportunities to further the theme of the parent / child relationship that could have been dealt with a little deeper, but TBH, it delivered exactly what was on the tin.
Do try to watch this on a large screen as the action scenes are worth it. Shame it missed the intended theatrical release.
Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
