Film Review: Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3

By Amazon, TV, Online Streaming & FilmsNo Comments

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is the third and final film in the Guardians trilogy. It’s focus is Rocket’s story. Rocket is severely injured, but the life-saving med packs won’t work because Rocket has a dead man’s switch inside of him.

The Guardians come together and set out on their mission: to get the code to disable the dead man’s switch, so that they can save Rocket’s life.

What follows is an action packed adventure.

It was a good film. But for me it wasn’t as funny as the previous films, the writers and directors instead focusing on action scenes that went on and on. Rather than the banter spattered throughout the previous films.

There was one particularly annoying scene after Groot had been decapitated and was a head walking on roots, suddenly appeared whole bodied again without showing how he managed this. This was just poor editing.

The film was meant to tug at your heart strings and invoke an emotional response, but it just didn’t do it for me. The selection of music in the film was superb.

Here is a trailer for the film:

I don’t think that anyone could ever replace them. But in the same breath, the young comedy performers coming through just haven’t got that iconic quality.

Music & TV I’m Enjoying or Looking Forward To

By Happiness & Joy, Music & Radio, TV, Online Streaming & FilmsNo Comments

There’s much cause for excitement with me at the moment. I’m looking forward to some recent and new album releases and some TV shows.

Jake Shears has just released his new album, Last Man Dancing. I’ve got the album and am looking forward to a long drive and enjoying listening to the sound of his voice.

I’ve just learned that Stephen Lynch the musical comedian has released a new album My New Heart. I can’t wait to listen and laugh to it.

Kylie Minogue has a new album coming out, titled Tension. I’m hoping it’s better than her last couple of albums. Hoping it sounds like Kylie in the 90s.

McFly are releasing their long awaiting album titled Power to Play. I am soo excited for this release!

There’s some brilliant TV Shows out/coming out, including:

Taylor Swift – Anti-Hero

I love that this a song about depression and Taylor describes it perfectly. Yet the tune isn’t down or slow, but an upbeat tribute to her struggles.

Tina Turner – Simply The Best

When we lost Tina Turner recently, we lost a musical legend. I was lucky enough to see her live in Manchester, back in 2009. See photos and blog post from the time.

Tracy Chapman – Fast car

I’ll be honest, I’ve loved this song for years. It is about escaping a harsh reality and the hope for better days in the future. Tracy has a beautiful voice.

Lucy Spraggan – Balance

I love Lucy Spraggan’s honesty in this song. She strives for something we all do: balance in our lives. But this song is about more than this. It is about her realising, that perhaps having someone along on her journey might be a good thing.

Nicole Scherzinger – Don’t Hold Your Breath

This song is definitely one I listen to repeat. It’s about realising how badly you’ve been treated by someone that’s supposed to care for you. Realising it, getting angry and saying F##K YOU, I AM NEVER GOING BACK TO THAT S##T.

Oleta Adams – Get Here

Oleta Adams expresses the desire and longing we can have for that special person. Her voice is phenomenal and she is someone I would love to see live, just for this one song.
