I've seen screen savers with more depth and fewer unnecessary lens flares than Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2.

The cinematography in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 is doing all the heavy lifting and it shows
Director clearly thought Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.

[Serious Discussion] Is anyone else completely checked out by the pacing in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2?
Look, I wanted to love Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. The trailer had me hyped. But sitting through the second hour felt like a homework assignment. The dialogue is exposition stacked on exposition and the score keeps telling me how to feel.

Hot Take: Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece
Honestly, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 would be a tight 95-minute movie. Instead we got a bloated runtime padded with B-roll and lingering shots that add nothing.
