Have tissues ready!"Markus Trutt@Thr3eHeadedMonk#GuardiansOfTheGalaxyVol3 ist trotz des Humors der wohl traurigste & düsterste MCU-Film & ein wundervoll-runder Abschluss von Gunns Trilogie, wo jeder im Kampf gg. einen hundsgemeinen (aber eher flachen) Bösewicht noch mal seinen großen Moment bekommt.

It is darker and has even touches of terror, but it is still very funny and with a lot of personality. Rocket and Nebula excel in a very dignified send-off."Jesús Agudo@jesuagumarIba con una idea preconcebida a #GuardianesDeLaGalaxia3 y James Gunn ha conseguido sorprenderme para bien.
