Guardians of the Galaxy
Abstact
Guardians of the Galaxy, directed by James Gunn, is a wonderful Hollywood movie. It is a science fiction movie about how heroes save the galaxy: Self-righteous adventurers "star jue" Peter quayle (played by Chris Pratt) stole a piece of mysterious sphere, after that he become the number one target of the bounty hunter. Actually, the original evil villain ronan has long coveted for the mysterious sphere. In order to escape the endless chase, he forced to alliance with the four incompatible mobs -
Rocket Raccoons armed with machine guns (dubbed by Bradley Cooper), Ents Grout (dubbed by Vin Diesel), murderous and mysteries Kamala (played by Zoe Saldana), as well as the vengeful destroyer Drax (played by Dave Batista).However when Quayle discover its real power and what a enormous disaster it can bring to the universe, he must unite the lousy teammate , do or die, to save the galaxy①.
The story of Starlord, Gamora, Rocket, Groot and Drax begins. They try to keep the powerful stone from falling into the hands of Ronan, a supervillain who seeks to use the rock to destroy entire planets. They crew initially meets in prison, where they have all been arrested by The Novacrops. From there, they story unwinds through a series of stunning interplanetary action sequences and well-timed meta-jokes. Key words
Hot action Conflict Stimulate Super-hero Positive energy
Analysis
The theme of the movie is “We're Losers. But we're Guardians of the Galaxy as well. ”Five incompatible mobs save the whole galaxy, its incredible but full of positive energy.
The genre and the style of the movie are out of our ideas. Its no doubt that it is a action/sci-fi/adventure movie, but its no more then a heroism-movie. The imaging story are all of antiheroism and nonmainstream doctrine.

It character functions and performance are unique too. The “star jue” have not hold his mothers palm before her death, young lived a life wander, his mother is a amazing person who are full of mother-beauty, though the movie has no concrete description about her. Kamala have not experience life without the bloodshed, the ultimate boss destroy her hometown, and treat her cruelly, but it was the shadow that shaped her strong personality. Rocket Raccoons has a low self-esteem heart, Drax has the bereavement of pain. Due to these sadness buried in their heart and the obsession can not be touched, they become thieves and killers, become a rogue and a madman. Yes, this is our life's losers, rather than be a yes-man sloppily, play a major! So they engaged in the great cause. All the character have their own Personality and special experience, which is a highlight②.
Of cause , there are some defect in the movie. For example, the whole film seems out of tune when comparing with the previous Marvel works. It’s no longer a personal heroism flaunt, but a bunch of unreliable ruffian male setting. funny, bickering, selling rot, and so on, this combination of nerves team actually become the
galaxy-saving guards, It is nonsensical.
When it comes down to narrative structure, it is three-act structure. And the
whole process filled with all kinds of drive plot that mobilize emotions of the
audience. Nevertheless, it is still not impressive enough. Marvel's past works, such as "Iron Man", "the Avengers", "God of thunder", "Captain America", the plot or evil confront are designed really careful to avoid duplication, try to ignite the enthusiasm of the audiences. In this movie the whole scene is quite exquisite unique, such as a variety of styles of spacecraft, and the scene of the bombing destroying is very cool great style. The whole plot like a drill a familiar game, allowing the thoughts running, neither soul stirring, not boring, which make audience feels good.
And, it is worth mentioning that the classical dialogues and the classical music. At first, no one who has ever seen the movie would forget the words” I'm Groot!” said by Groot. It conveys a confidence, and tell as what is friendship. Words” A bunch of Interstellar stupid” which is impress us too, is not a taunt or irony, but a kind of

obscure commandment. Second, music, eighty's pop music throughout the whole moive, it’s not only a sad movie opening leading, but also the key to winning the outcome of turning enemy, it also play the role of the male Star Jue’s emotional treasure. This ancient music in the film is not only a taste of nostalgia, but also a fitness to the characters. The movie rely on inadvertently reveal music to find the character's emotion accumulation. If the five heroes like is stringed instruments, the pop music is the foundation of this hero five String Quartet, the tender harbour. It’s a highlight of the movie too③.
As to critical perspectives, we talked about the movie’s theme, Genre, character functions and performance, narrative structure, style, classical dialogues, and so on.
In conclusion, Guardians of the Galaxy, adapted from the same name comic
book of 2008,is a successful movie. Neglect its small part of the flaw, the movie is excite people's mind, it is a good movie worth watching. Conlusion
The movie is already getting rave reviews, it’s score is 8.5 in the internet.
Although there are many typs of movie of heroism, the role of the hero has not
changed because heroes have always posses certain characteristics that classify them as heroes, including our special Ruffian hero in the movie. “The greater the ability the greater the responsibility” and “Not all heroes are saints”, This positive energy is worth learning.
