Guardians of the Galaxy

Banded together through coincidence and destiny, our five unlikely heroes in Guardians of the Galaxy form a bond recognized by anyone who has a best friend. As with many ensemble action movies, Guardians insists on allowing each member of the group to drop their guard (ha-ha) in order to strengthen not only themselves but each other. Nothing is too much for this rowdy crew; their camaraderie and friendship evolves into smooth machinations of a supergroup. Director James Gunn revels in watching fully formed grown-ups find new ways to love and care for those around them. 

Directed by James Gunn, 2014, 121 minutes, PG-13.
