Very very average, way better than most marvel films, people that didn't like it probably understand story structure.

This thread is going to be disproportionally filled with Marvel fans telling you how great the movie is. Don't expect objective responses, OP.
What were the arguments your friends who disliked it made?

Found it kind of boring, to be honest. That and I have no attachment to the characters
edit :
Thanks for the replies!
I forgot to mention that those people who didn't like it because they found it way too much juvenile and some also mention that Zoe Saldana did a not so great job portraying Gamora (I read the comic so I know the character!).
Those who like it was because they found it to be easy and fun without becoming "irritating" as other superhero movies
FTFY.
It's good for the following reasons:
- Well done big budget film. Looks very nice. Good production quality.
- Amazing soundtrack
- Very funny but also lots of action. An enjoyable mix
- You (at least most people) don't know the characters. There aren't any pre-conceived notions of how they should look/act/etc. In other words, it's a fresh story and cast of characters to take in.
- Unconventional team of underdogs are always a fun time.

It's a middle-of-the-road film on par with your average Marvel matinee that you'll forget the plot details to a week after you've seen it.
Whoops. I mean it's a film shifting the cinematic landscape of Hollywood.
Hi,
I still haven't got the chance to see this movie, and from what I've read and seen it may easily fit my taste (especially for the setting).
I have some friends who *loved* it and others that didn't really like it.
Now, all those people who didn't like it had pretty convincing reasons/opinions, but a quick look at imdb and rotten tomatoes makes me scratch my head... Looks like the majority of the public loved this.
I want to try here asking fellow gaffers a genuine opinion about this movie, but most important the main reason(s) why it is so good.
Thanks for the reply.
Edit : Since my movies backlog is huge i'm trying to catch up by watching a new movie every 2 days, however I didn't really find so great the latest superhero movies I watched (Ironman 3 and Avengers 2) so I don't want to "waste" my tomorrow movie day.
This is incredibleIt's fun, not good, just fun.
MCU ratings
Good- Iron Man, Winter Soldier
Fun- Avengers, GotG
Mediocre- All of the ones not named
Bad- Thor 2, Incredible Hulk
Have not scene AoU or Ant-Man yet
If you're going to watch it because of the Gaffers proclaiming that it's amazing you're going to be disappointed. It's not. It's a fun timewaster, but nothing more than that. Unless you're a diehard fan you're going to forget most of what happened the day after. I'd say it's on par with your average Pirates of the Carribean movie, perhaps with a slightly nerdier sense of humour. There's not much to the characters, the plot is nothing more than an excuse to movie from setpiece to setpiece, the comedy was amusing at times, but never really laugh-out-loud funny. CGI looked pretty though. Wasn't really for me.
Why do people makr threads like this instead of just watching the movie?

I hate Marvel movies and I loved this.
Rag tag heroes are fun.
