Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 is exactly the sequel it needs to be

What's excellent about Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 is that it's not just a cheap imitation of the first.

After fifteen movies in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, it is hard to imagine Marvel making a bad movie.

It's been a long way from 2008's Iron Man, but the company keeps making the most enjoyable superhero movies, weaving layers after layers of stories over the course of several movies into one big universe that'll grace 2018's Avengers: Infinity War.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe

Despite lacking the element of surprise that the first movie benefited from, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 works with just the same energy that made its predecessor a favourite among viewers and critics.

The movie does not dabble in anything that's radically different from the previous one; instead, it fills in gaps and answers important questions posed by it. The universe becomes a little bit more complex and dangerous, and it gives the story a little bit more narrative dimension.

The movie starts with the familiar crew of, now famous, Guardians defending some valuable anulax batteries against a space monster that’s meant to do something vaguely terrible.

While it appears like a random action sequence slipped in just to get your blood pumping before the story starts, it actually sets the tone of the story and launches the team’s adventure for much of the movie’s run time.

The team had been contracted to protect the batteries by the Sovereign, a race of golden-skinned people, led by the the high priestess, Ayesha (Elizabeth Debicki). This is in exchange for a prisoner that had tried to steal the batteries, and is a sworn enemy of the Guardians.

Ayesha in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2

The movie slowly draws you in without making it too obvious that it is time to start paying attention.

Amidst all the chaos of the first movie, the identity of Peter "Star Lord" Quill’s father was a mystery that was left hanging in the air.

Vol. 2 hurriedly serves up his identity as a celestial stranger, Ego (Kurt Russell), who saves the team and claims to be Star Lord's father.

Kurt Russell stars as Ego in Guardians of the Galaxy

It is a big moment for Star Lord who has only ever had the dark shadow of Yondu Udonta hang over him as the only father figure in his life.

Ego's appearance moves the story in a new direction that doesn’t completely veer off track of what’s already been happening, but it renders the narrative a little clunky.

Vin Diesel’s tree-like humanoid, Groot, was one of the highlights of the first movie, and after his death, he has reanimated as Baby Groot at the beginning of this movie and it’s hard to question the result as he babbles his 3-word vocabulary with childlike relish.

Groot in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2

One of the most standout characters with a meaningful arc in Vol. 2 is genetically-modified raccoon and habitual troublemaker, Rocket (voiced by Bradley Cooper). His actions have considerable impact on the direction of the story and his interactions with Groot are as funny as ever.

Drax (Dave Bautista), same as Gamora (Zoe Saldana), doesn’t have much to do in this movie other than be the guy that unintentionally provides the laughs that's a staple of a Marvel production. Both characters don’t have the same level of emotional investment they had in the first movie, but it doesn’t make them feel out of place in this one.

Outside of the Guardians line up, Michael Rooker returns as the sinister blue-skinned space bandit Yondu with his whistle-controlled arrow and his team of Ravagers still seeking vengeance against the Guardians after the events of the last movie.

The only other recurring character of note is Karen Gillan’s Nebula who's still so terrible at killing Gamora, her adopted sister.

Nebula in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2

The first Guardians movie was widely praised for its acting, action, humor, soundtrack, and visual effects, and these are not lacking in Vol. 2.

However, beyond the striking visuals and snarky, sometimes mean, humour, Vol. 2 excels the most when its characters are interacting with one another. Gamora and Nebula share a couple of great moments, and so do Yondu and Rocket.

Nebula and Gamora are at odds again in Vol. 2

These moments peel back sheltered layers of the characters, and show them in a whole new light that you'd never expect to see them.

It helps them become complex characters that are not just stuck in front of the camera as ordinary props for the story to use and discard at will. Instead, these moments make them the heartbeat of the story.

Yondu returns in Guardians of the Galaxy in Vol. 2

Yondu evolves in what is an incredible personal journey that elevates him from the simple bandit character that the first movie portrayed. His actions are put under the spotlight and weighed more carefully as the audience, armed with new information, is made to retrace the character's steps and see his actions in new perspectives.

He spends most of his screen time with Rocket who still can't seem to stay away from trouble just for kicks. The sharp-tongued raccoon (he still hates to be called that) has developed a strained relationship with the group due to his reckless actions and hanging out with Yondu seems to provide him with some clarity, and the two are great together.

Yondu and Rocket share some of the movie's best moments together

There's a lot of impressive character work happening in Vol. 2 that you can almost feel frustrated that the best ones have to play second fiddle to Star Lord's story arc of his reunion with his father which has more focus.

The movie spends most of its screen time trying to fill in the blanks in Star Lord's past after he meets his father.

Star Lord and Ego in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2

Ego and Star Lord spend a lot of time together on the former's planet as he explains how he met his mother and the circumstances surrounding his birth and capture from earth.

It's touching, but not as much as the director would have intended, and definitely not as well-executed as the other personal arcs.

One of the movie's drawbacks was breaking up the crew for a considerable amount of time, and this gets in the way of the chemistry that was built up in the previous movie, especially between Drax and Rocket.

Star Lord and Drax in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2

A major hangup of superhero movies is the fact that it's ever so hard to make the audience believe that the hero could be in mortal danger. Even Groot's incredible fatal sacrifice in the first movie is undone by his resurrection as a big-eyed sapling that becomes Baby Groot in Vol. 2.

The consequence of this is that no matter how dire the hero's situation is, you never really feel a sense of doom for them, and this robs you of a little emotional attachment to the action-packed chaos going on.

Vol. 2 suffers particularly from this as, despite director James Gunn's best attempts to make you care about the character's fates, you know they are going to pull through.

Gunn makes this even worse as in the movie's most tense moments, with the fate of the multiverse hanging in a terrible balance, it still plays way too much for the stakes to have any real punch to them.

However, this doesn't get in the way of enjoying the movie, because Guardians knows it is silly, and does its best to make it fun.

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2

The only other new character in Vol. 2 that has any kind of pull on the story is Pom Klementieff’s socially-awkward Mantis who possesses empathic powers. Her pairing with Drax works in fun ways as he is at his funniest when they interact.

Drax and Mantis in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2

What's excellent about Vol. 2 is that it's not just a cheap imitation of the first. Rather than just repeat a true and tested formula, it builds on it and expands the story in a meaningful manner.

True to Marvel tradition, after the dust settles, Vol. 2 has a few teaser clips after the credits start to roll, a whooping five, and they range from hilarious to structurally universe-building plot points.

Like you would expect, Stan Lee makes a cameo in one of these scenes, and there are a couple of surprising cameos sprinkled over the course of the movie's run time too.

For some reason, Vol. 2 may struggle to attain the heights of the first Guardians movie, but it can stand on its own merits and be considered one of the best in 2017.

The Fate of the Furious is a wild, reckless ride

The premise of the franchise has always been about fast shiny cars and over the top action, and Fate delivers on loads of this.

There’s something about the culture of Hollywood movie franchises that fans hate to experience; that dreadful feeling that sooner or later, after more than a couple of movies, the stories start to suck, the action becomes stale, the characters become too rigid, and everything just crumbles in on itself and the filmmakers have to bring it to a sad shameful death.

The Fate of the Furious

On the evidence of the strong showing of The Fate of the Furious, the Fast and Furious franchise has not reached that sad point, yet.

When the first movie in the franchise, The Fast and the Furious, kicked to life, no one imagined that it would still be going strong sixteen years later with enough fuel left in the tank to go a couple more miles, unbothered by exhaustion.

The events of Fate pick up from Dominic Toretto and Letty  Ortiz's honeymoon in Cuba where Dom does what he does best, race.

His new life of bliss does not last for very long when the mysterious cyberterrorist, Cipher (Charlize Theron) shows up to set the conflict of the movie into motion and what follows is an insane ride that has made the franchise one of the best, and longest, to show up in Hollywood.

Cipher forces Dom to work for her because of a mysterious advantage she’s holding over him. Dom goes rogue against his family and helps Cipher to steal dangerous stuff all over the world to start World War III. Well, almost.

Cipher and Dom in Fate of the Furious

One of the high points of the story was the team’s confusion at what could be responsible for Dom’s betrayal.

Letty is the most haunted by this, obviously, and the suspense new director, F. Gary Grey, builds by also withholding that information from the viewer makes the payoff captivating when the reason for his actions is revealed.

All of the team’s adventures in the previous movies have always been spearheaded by Dom or Brian (played by the late Paul Walker), so Dom’s absence creates a vacuum that Agent Luke Hobbs (Dwayne Johnson), who is more of a superhero at this point, effortlessly steps into.

Luke Hobbs in The Fate of the Furious

The team that is tasked with keeping up with Dom has Letty, Roman Pearce, Tej Parker, and Ramsey, joined by former adversary, Deckard Shaw (Jason Statham), who is initially forced on the team by Mr. Nobody (Kurt Russell) and his underwhelming junior associate named Little Nobody (Scott Eastwood).

True to recent form, the movie drags all over the place from Berlin to New York City to icy Russia, as the team chases after Dom and Cipher.

The premise of the fracnhise has always been about fast shiny cars and over the top action, and Fate delivers on loads of this.

The Fate of thte Furious

The team’s pursuit of Dom through the streets of New York to stop him from helping Cipher destabilise the world is one long stretch of toe-curling masterpiece that fans have come to expect, plus the novelty of featuring some mindblowing zombie apocarlypse.

The thrill of the car chase is exciting, and watching the team clash with Dom, trying to rein him in, makes for some explosive action; the type of action that has kept fans around for years and begging for more.

The franchise has never shied away from basking in the most ridiculous of action setpieces, and Fate keeps up with this tradition with its over-the-top joyride.

The Fate of the Furious includes a submarine chase

More than the cars, Fate masterfully ties together a few plot threads from the previous movies in a neat manner that contributes to some of its brilliance.

Events that happened in Fast & Furious 6 and Furious 7 impact heavily and a character that first appeared in Fast Five made a return.

Another backbone of the franchise, just as important as the cars and the races, is the chemistry shared between the core characters that have been a mainstay since it started.

The Fate of the Furious

Dom and Letty are finally married after years of dating on and off, and their relationship has always been a major pull for the show, central to the events of Fast and Furious 6. It's refreshing to see the two tie the knot (offscreen) and do mundane things like have conversations about raising kids when there are beautiful cars to be raced.

The franchise has always anchored most of its comic outlet  on Tyrese Gibson's Roman Pearce ever since he made his first appearance in 2 Fast 2 Furious.

His character is so useless plot-wise at this point, you know they are only keeping him around for the laughs, and he doesn't disappoint here.

Roman Pierce in The Fate of the Furious.jpg

His chemistry with Ludacris' Tej Parker has always played off nicely, and Fate is not an exception as the two battle to win Ramsay's affection.

A new partnership blooded by the franchise in Fate is Johnson's Luke Hobbs and the team's nemesis in the last movie, Deckard Shaw.

The violent exchanges of threats of humiliation between Hobbs and Shaw are so hilarious you almost forget that Shaw is the same guy that killed Han Lue, as well as almost killed Hobbs, in the last movie.

Deckard Shaw vs Luke Hobbs

To its credit, after eight movies, the Fast and the Furious franchise does not appear to be slowing down. Vin Diesel already announced two more movies in the installment.

The franchise doesn't seem to be suffering from exhaustion any time soon, so there's no reason to stop making more, at least not from a financial perspective. Fate has already dominated the global box office and hit the $1 billion mark in just its third weekend.

The Fate of the Furious includes a submarine chase

The Fate of the Furious is a wonderful addition to the franchise. It ticks all the right boxes; family, exotic locations, fast shiny cars, insane stunts and plenty of trash-talking.

The movie excels at creating real tension with real stakes, something to get the characters to care about to create scenarios that the audience will find reasonable to believe in.

Charlize Theron's take as Cipher, the movie's villian, is a bit of a stretch, but her motivations as a character and the ruthlessness with which she operates to get things done makes her a formidable presence in Fate.

Despite its top-notch action set pieces, Fate suffers from some unbelievable leaps in logic, but at this point, that is like a hallmark of the franchise and hardcore fans won't care too much about much of it.

After all, what's a Fast and Furious movie without a suspension of logic from time to time?
