Director James Gunn’s Guardians of the Galaxy is different from the usual ‘serious comic’ oxymoronic book adaptions, humour – not action – is the main forte of this comic flick.
Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy is a welcome addition to the Marvel movies set. Its storyline is dictated by a set of circumstances that have already unfolded in the Marvel movie lineup. Gunn (with co-screenwriter Nicole Perlman), under producer Kevin Feige’s direction, devises Guardians as a standalone series of movies, connected to the bigger Avengers franchise.
But this connection works in its favour. Guardians is a relatively unknown group of heroes and this factor can help it connect with fans and a general audience who are aware of the Avengers. Its a good watch for fans of the comic movie genre.
