Zoe Saldana asks a perfectly sensible question in context of Chris Pratt's description of the town's folk in "Footloose". There is a lot of deadpan, not so tongue-in-cheek humor flying about from Pratt's newly adopted crew from other planets. Quill (Pratt) is actually a thief with strong do-gooder tendencies that come forth just in time to aave his butt.
This is a family-fantastic type film with adult tones. The CGI is excellent and the work on Rockett (Cooper) and Groot (Diesel) is so transparent you would think they were real. Michael Rooker manages to play a galatic redneck which may be a first for the genre. Lee Pace looks a whole lot like Darth Maul and Del Toro does an outstanding homage to Klaus Kinski in the brief time he was on screen.
Not to be confused with Kurosawa or Bergman, this film will entertain and make you giggle and laugh (occasionaly). "Don't call me a thesaurus."
I liked it, you probably won't so stay home and act out on the internet before TPP ends it.
Sequel coming. (No surprises there.)
