Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 – Ending on a Highly Emotional Note

As bittersweet as the end of an era can be, this final installment of Guardian of the Galaxy delivers on all fronts.

The final chapter of the Guardians of the Galaxy trilogy marks James Gunn’s last hurrah in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It’s hard to believe that James Gunn was almost not the writer/director to end the epic saga, as it’s impossible to imagine anyone else behind the lens of a Guardians movie.

Excellent
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3
WE LIKED
  • Emotional ending to the trilogy
  • Compelling origin story for Rocket
  • Great cinematography and acting
WE DIDN’T LIKE
  • The ending feels longer than it should be

Written and directed by Gunn, who was also behind the previous two Guardians films, Vol. 3 has Chris Pratt reprising his role as Peter Quill, also known Star-Lord, Dave Bautista as the warrior Drax the Destroyer, Vin Diesel as the adorable Groot, Bradley Cooper as the “not a raccoon,” Rocket Raccoon, Karen Gillan as Nebula, and Pom Klementieff as Mantis. You might remember Thanos killing Zoe Saldana’s Gamora in 2018’s Avengers: Infinity War. However, a version of the character that has no feelings for Peter or any loyalty to the group at first is part of this movie. For the bereft Star-Lord, this further complicates his already difficult grieving process.

However, Peter Quill isn’t the film’s focus. Sure, at the start, he’s mourning the death of his beloved Gamora and moved to a planet suitable named Knowhere with the rest of the Guardians. But when Rocket is seriously injured after an attack, Quill and the rest of the Guardians make it their mission to explore the cynical Raccoon’s backstory and find a way to save his life. 

The mission leads them to the High Evolutionary, a mad scientist who made poor Rocket sentient and exacted cruel experiments on him when he was only a raccoon pup. He wants to create Counter-Earth, a better, less crime-filled version of our planet. Rocket just about escaped with his life, but unfortunately, his ordeal left him with an unwanted souvenir – a kill switch.

Since the Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 1 movie first dropped back in 2014, the badly-tempered yet witty Rocket quickly became a fan favourite. After all, how could we not love a smart-mouthed raccoon that passionately denies being a… well, a raccoon. So it made sense for the film to shift its focus away from the Peter/Gamora stories and centre on him. Saying this about a furry CGI animal might be a bit strange, but the film under Gunn’s direction does a great job of humanizing Rocket and giving him a level of depth we’ve yet to see with this character.

Is Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 worth the entry price?

The final chapter in the trilogy is about a lot more than Rocket facing his traumatic past. It shows how far this group of misfits has come and how devoted they are to each other despite everything they’ve been through. At its core, this story about the power of true friendship offers an emotional yet satisfying conclusion to a much-beloved saga. 

This is probably one of the best Marvel movies in the past decade. The stakes aren’t ridiculous (no one is trying to save the entire Universe here), and the focus is on the Guardian’s chosen family and how far they’re all willing to go for each other. As you’d expect from a bonafide MCU entry, there’s brilliant cinematography, action-packed sequences, and hilarious moments. But most importantly, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 has a lot of heart.

Guardians of the galaxy 3 review

Will Marvel eventually make more Guardians of the Galaxy films past Vol 3? That’s hard to tell. Will these beloved characters make appearances in future MCU movies? Yes. But right now, we’re saying goodbye to the crew as we know it. And as far as final acts go, this one is as epic as they come. 

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 FAQs

How many hours is Guardians of the Galaxy 3?

The movie’s runtime in the UAE is 150 minutes or two and a half hours.

Who was the girl at the end of Guardians of the Galaxy 3?

Halfway through the movie and in mid-roll credits, Guardians of the Galaxy introduces a well-known character from the comics. Her name is Phyla-Vell (played in the film by Kai Zen), she’s a guardian, whose powers include energy blast and flying.

Is Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3 the last movie?

It is the final movie in the trilogy. Will Marvel eventually makes more of them? That’s hard to tell.

Does Guardians 3 have an end-credit scene?

The movie has two. In the first one, we watch the new Guardians leader, Rocket Raccoon, train the new cohort of guardians, including Phyla. The very end-credit scene teases the legendary Star-Lord’s return right after showing Peter Quill enjoying some quality time with his grandfather.
