I liked it for a number of reasons!
1: Kurt Russel. I grew up on Kurt Russel movies.
2: No, Kurt Russel isn't like Big Trouble in Little China in this, that role is now been passed to Star Crunch
3: It feels like a torch passing for Chris Pratt to be the new Kurt Russel.
4: Character Development. I really like the Character development of Yondu and how
5: Torch is passed then to Sean Gunn (Director James Gunn's little brother).
6: Eye Candy was very good.
7: The first movie focused on frienship. What is a friend? How do you find a friend? How do you keep a friend? How come I don't have any friends? - Steve Brule. This one focused on family. What makes a family, how do you find a family, how do you keep a family, etc. I thought that was a good step up from the last movie.
Things I wish they did more of:
Howard the Duck. When Howard the Duck came out, Cleveland was VERY excited as this took place in Cleveland (or well, was supposed to). The cameo was nice but I REALLLYYY wished he had more than a 1 second screen time. I don't care what anyone else says, give me Howard the Duck!!
