I think I prefer the storyline of this one over the first. The first film did drag a bit until the end. It was good to see more of the Cenobites in this one. Parts of it were repetitive though, still very gory and unusual though. If you liked the first check it out.

This book was recommended to me by a friend. I felt that the writing was sloppy at times (or maybe just a bit too casual for my tastes, as the previous book I finished was by CS Lewis), but still a fun read that doesn't drag the way a lot of fantasy novels do.

Book Favorite

"Like Nietzsche, Genet believed in the "transvaluation of all values", by which bad is good and the ugly is beautiful. Whereas most writers treated homosexuality as a disease, Genet took the stronger position in linking it with evil and crime and sin. He invented the drag queen for literature in Divine in this novel."

Couldn't get over continuity errors
Honestly I couldn't get over how bad the car chase was at the beginning not only did it drag on for ages but the fact they car kept randomly changing back and forth how damaged it was ruined for me and I couldn't get in to the movie after that.

Watched this week on Disney plus don’t understand why this movie didn’t get much love at the cinema it wasn’t that bad a movie the animation is good good voice acting the visuals are good but the plot can drag sometimes which spoils it for me but the movie is okay for the family

Way too much dialog at times.
You either love it or hate it but it does change how you see super heroes.
This is one comic book I honestly believe everyone should read but art the same time don't make it your first like I tried to do because HOLY hell does thing drag along at some points but at about half way it finally sinks its teeth in and does not let you go.

To date I think this has one of the best conclusions I've ever read. And you definitely find your looking at superheroes different after reading this.

Drax became annoying
I enjoyed the movie, but I don't think it's one of the better marvel movies. I thought the first one was better, but there was a lot to like. Chris Pratt is still one of the best blossoming movie stars. Kurt Russell is a treasure, and he really gets to shine. Yondu steals the show. There's a lot of pathos in the movie, but it does drag. The bits with rocket and groot with the Ravengers really drag. Every scene with Drax almost hurt to watch. I liked him in the first movie, but they absolutely beat the joke into the ground with his character. Still a fun enough movie, probably won't see it again
