The Guardians of the Galaxy: Holiday Special Review
Media Name: The Guardians of the Galaxy: Holiday Special Media Type: TV Special Series: MCU Release Year: 2022 Special Director: James Gunn Production Company: Marvel Studios English Network: Disney+ Runtime: 42 Minutes Finished Watching: 25th November 2022 My Rating: 8/10 Given how much I like the Guardians of the Galaxy movies, I was really excited for this special. I'd have to say that it delivered. I found it to be really funny with the plot of Drax and Mantis kidnapping Kevin Bacon especially being amusing. The acting was really great as well. The CGI was surprisingly great given how CGI in other phase 3 MCU content has looked. The writing was also really good and the special was sometimes emotional. The only bad thing was the rotoscoped 2D animation for the beginning and ending which should have just been live-action in my opinion. Overall, this was a great TV special and gives the MCU a sign of hope.
