There is a place for movies like this, it is not in the dept of the Captain Americas or Thors, just a family fun movie about a group of misfits trying to make it on their own in the world. I prefer the movies of this crew to what we get when we see the crew of Ant-Man movies.     

This is the final Guardians of the Galaxy movie, and they did well in putting full-stops to the stories. I do not think this movie plot is one of the finest we have seen in the MCU, in fact the movie plot falls in the line of what you will expect if you are watching a TV series.

This is the thirty-second movie in the MCU and it is the last flight we will see of the crew of the Guardians of the Galaxy together. We do not know the plans of the MCU concerning the future of this franchise, but many have signed off on making more movies concerning this franchise in the future.

The story and plot mean everything we saw concerning Rocket’s past in the Guardians of the Galaxy animation is null and void. Also, the movie falls in the line of the two movies before it (Black Panther: Wakanda Forever and Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania) never climbing as high as the ones before them.

The movie plot is about a new villain called High Evolutionary. He created Rocket and is obsessed with him. All his other creations and civilizations have not been able to meet up to the intellect displayed by Rocket. The worst part of this obsession is that Rocket has shown himself to be even more intelligent than the High Evolutionary. For this reason, he wants to catch Rocket, remove his brain to study it. By doing this he gets to fulfill his desires to know how come Rocket is so intelligent and to end his life.

High Evolutionary has created numerous races of intelligent beings and placed them on planets to study them. He taxed one of these races to capture Rocket, here is why Adam Warlock goes to the new home of the Guardians and tries to capture Rocket. He ended up injuring Rocket with a life-threatening shot before he ran away after getting hurt himself. The Guardians noticed they cannot heal him with their packs because there is kill switch written into his creation.

Nebula was able to extract information from Rocket’s robotic gear to know where he came from and who they must go meet (High Evolutionary) to get the code that is needed to save Rocket’s life.

As said above it is a good ending for the crew and not a bad movie to see at all.
