    Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 2

    On May 5 the new movie Guardians of the Galaxy Volume Two was released. The movie is a sequel to Guardians of the Galaxy, which was released on August 1 in 2014. The first movie had very good ratings with an eight out of ten on IMDb and a 91% on rotten tomatoes.

    The new movie also has an eight out of ten on IMDb, however it only has an 81% on rotten tomatoes. People are raving about the movie. One fan said “This movie is a joyous experience. Guaranteed to raise your mood!” and he is not the only one to think that.

    The movie is about Peter Quill and his fellow Guardians. They are hired by the Sovereign, who are a powerful alien race. Their job is to protect precious batteries from invaders.

    Things take a turn when they discovered that Rocket has stolen the items they were sent to guard. This leads to the Sovereign dispatching their armada to search for vengeance.  As the Guardians try to escape, the mystery of Peter’s parentage is revealed.

    The cast consists of some well know celebrities, such as Chris Pratt and Vin Diesel. The new hit movie was directed by James Gunn. Gunn also directed the first Guardians of The Galaxy movie and The Belko Experiment which was released in 2016.

    Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 2 had a movie budget of two hundred million dollars. However the movie has already brought in four hundred and thirty thousand dollars in the short time since its release.

    The movie is still in theaters, so if you have not seen it yet, you definitely should.
