This week I asked someone very special to me for his favorite movie. I asked MY LITTLE BROTHER!!! My little brother (who FYI is 16 so he isn’t actually little) is three inches taller than me and plays video games seemingly all day long. He’s definitely the only person who does that, right guys? To understand the importance of my asking my little brother, I have to do a little storytelling of my life.
I moved out of my house when I was 16 years old and I had little to no contact with my parents for about two years. However, I didn’t want my little brother to think that my problems with my parents meant I wasn’t his big sister anymore. So I did what any sister would do, and I started a tradition. Once a month, I would pick him up and take him to see a movie. One of the movies that I took him to see was Guardians of the Galaxy 2. I was very happy to hear that this was tied for his favorite movie with none other than Guardians of the Galaxy. I am so happy that I got to take him to go see his favorite movie, so to be honest, this review might be a little bias. Also, I am going to review the first one just because I know it better, and frankly, I think it was a better movie, but I did not actually take Peter (that’s my brother) to see the first one.
This is a very old picture of my brother, sister, and me because he refuses to take pictures. He is in 8th grade in this picture and now he is in 10th. Also, he is a very good at orchestra. I stole the second picture from his Instagram, so that picture is recent.
Guardians of the Galaxy
Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♡♡♡
If you Liked this Movie, You’d Like: Any superhero movie ever. My personal favorites are Deadpool and Spiderman
So a little summary of this movie. The main character, Peter (not my brother) Quill, played by the handsome Chris Pratt, is forced to team up with a bunch of rogue space people/beings/fighters? because he stole an orb that the villain wanted. His team consists of a tree named Groot (my favorite character) played by Vin Diesel♥, a raccoon named Rocket, a large man named Drax, and the villain’s daughter (I think) Gamora.
If you can’t tell by now, action movies aren’t really my thing for the most part, so I apologize if I am not doing this movie justice.
One of the greatest, possibly the greatest, parts of this movie is the soundtrack. It has an unbelievably good soundtrack. It consists of Blue Swede’s “Hooked on a Feeling,” Raspberries’s “Go All the Way,” Norman Greenbaum’s “Spirit in the Sky,” 10CC’s “I’m Not in Love,” and so many other fantastic songs. I highly encourage you to listen to Peter’s mixtape “Awesome Mix Vol. 1” while doing homework. It is a great playlist.
Overall, I’m not going to say that much more about this movie because I highly encourage you to go watch it with your siblings. And while you are at it, tell them how much you love and care about them. Have a great weekend everybody.
