Brash space adventurer Peter Quill (Chris Pratt) finds himself the quarry of relentless bounty hunters after he steals an orb coveted by Ronan, a powerful villain. To evade Ronan, Quill is forced into an uneasy truce with four disparate misfits: gun-toting Rocket Raccoon, treelike-humanoid Groot, enigmatic Gamora, and vengeance-driven Drax the Destroyer. But when he discovers the orb's true power and the cosmic threat it poses, Quill must rally his ragtag group to save the universe.

Critics Consensus

Guardians of the Galaxy is just as irreverent as fans of the frequently zany Marvel comic would expect -- as well as funny, thrilling, full of heart, and packed with visual splendor.

Flavorwire

For much of its 122 minutes, Gunn's grab-bag of quirky characters, genre ribbing, and incongruent '70s pop tunes goes over like gangbusters. The trouble is, it's only irreverent to a point.

The Atlantic

If Guardians of the Galaxy is an origin story, it is also a satire of the origin story, one that emphasizes the power of the "We" over that of the "Chosen One."

Guardians of the Galaxy is the movie that made me realize there is something to these so-called “movies.”

The Guardians' cast has teamed up for four different movies, so it's no surprise their chemistry on screen is undeniable.

What a wonderful way to end The original Guardians of the Galaxy trilogy! A roller coaster of emotions throughout. The first 2 movies are some of my favorite Marvel movies to date. The 3rd one was great as well! Well done Marvel!

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

A brilliant end to one of my favorite movie trilogies. A lot more emotion but with a good mix of humor.

The IMAX trilogy was an absolute blast of an experience... The large-scale spaceship battles will never feel the same for me outside this format. Vol. 2 still has the most laugh-out-loud moments by far, but Vol 3 cruises through the middle sweet spot of balance. Makeup and VFX held up incredible on IMAX view! Was great to see how everyone in the theater left with so much gratitude and satisfaction upon the conclusion of this Trilogy. James Gunn made these characters feel so authentic and memorable - I'll sure miss this version of Drax and Mantis. I was also very happy to see Gunn embrace some of the visual style from the Video Game of last year - particular the set design for Orgoscope and the High Evolutionary's vessel.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

I was surprised at how dark this movie really was.. Still enjoyed 7 hours of GotG trilogy, They didn't have too many jokes like most Marvel movies.
