GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY immediate reaction review

[xiphias]

I considered it fun and worth my time, but I think it's the most minor of the Marvel universe films of the past few years.

You've seen a lot of the good lines in the trailers, but not all of them. The after-the-credits bit isn't really worth it -- I mean, it's okay.

So, yeah. It's worth going, but, if you don't get to it, it's not disastrous.

I didn't enjoy watching it.

I can see that. It appeals to a particular type of movie-watcher. I think MOST people have some of that, and I certainly do, but certainly not everybody does. It has no intellectual depth, and little emotional depth.

It's fun, and I enjoyed it, but it's more-or-less superficially fun. If you need a little more depth from your entertainment, I can see that it wouldn't really do much for you.
