The main thing I ought to say, since Guardians of the Galaxy is not one of the better known Marvel funnies, is that you don't have to have perused the funnies to delight in or comprehend the motion picture. The story begins you from zero, presenting the characters with their individual foundations and identities.
In a few ways you might really be better off not having read the funnies as a few insights about the characters have been changed, both to make for a smoother, more reasonable story line, and to make it fit into the more extensive storyline laid out in the other late Marvel movies (The Avengers, Iron Man, Thor, and so forth) that have preceded. Several characters from The Avengers storyline show up here, entwining the two, yet the vast majority of the characters in Guardians of the Galaxy will be totally new to motion picture goers.
Directed by James Gunn (Super, Movie 43), from a screenplay by Gunn (Tromeo & Juliet, Scooby-Doo, Dawn of the Dead) and Nicole Perlman, in view of the Marvel Commics characters made by Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning, Guardians of the Galaxy is a standout amongst the most fun films to turn out this late spring. A considerable measure of time, thought and ability - and sheer craftsmanship - went into making this film and it truly demonstrates.
The best approach to think about this is, in The Avengers things are told from an Earth-driven perspective where space is still a whole lot an out-there obscure, while in Guardians of the Galaxy things are told from whatever is left of the-universe perspective where the Earth is not just not a player, we're not by any means mindful that there's a diversion. Not yet, at any rate.
Enter Peter Quill (Chris Pratt) otherwise known as Starlord, a human with a profoundly curious past, some of which is uncovered in the film's opening grouping, who ends up a greatly needed - and chased - man after he takes a recondite item called The Orb, not understanding its actual nature. Alternately esteem to various individuals, most particularly a to a great degree dim character named Ronan (Lee Pace) who will do anything to get his active the Orb for reasons that bode greatly sick for other people. In the wake of falling afoul of a digital hereditarily improved Korath the Pursuer (Djimon Hounsou), his previous guide Yondu (Michael Rooker) who heads an outsider pack called the Ravagers and who basically raised him, and a lethal green-cleaned professional killer named Gamora (Zoe Saldana), Quill ends up in jail alongside the grouped interstellar blackguards who will structure the Guardians of the Galaxy:
Rocket (voiced by Bradley Cooper) - An aware, hereditarily designed raccoon with enough mentality for a whole planet and an affection for big weapons, quick ships and cash. What's more rather oftentimes, disorder. He is additionally a virtuoso at practically every sort of building and at concocting brisk response strategies for managing strained circumstances.
Groot (voiced by Vin Diesel) - An aware (if not especially sharp) tree-like animal who imparts through a thousand shifted articulations of the expression "I am Groot" and is really very blameless and sweet... until he's approached to give the muscle to move down one of Rocket's arrangements and transforms into a boiling over arboreal juggernaut.
Gamorra (Zoe Saldana) - A green-cleaned lady, surgically upgraded to be quick and dangerous in a battle, prepared as a standout amongst the most talented professional killers known to anybody by a standout amongst the most risky compels in the world. Whom she could conceivably be working for as she keeps her cards well shrouded and has great motivation to be abate to trust.
Drax the Destroyer (Dave Bautista) - A dangerous - and dead genuine - berserker of a man, fixated on reprisal against the man who killed his family yet very eager to tackle any individual who crosses his way before that happens. Furthermore who takes all that he sees and hears completely truly, abandoning him habitually oblivious with reference to what's really being said.
Furthermore obviously Quill himself (Chris Pratt), a fantastic screw-up of the Han Solo/ Bart Maverick mold - "something great, something terrible... a bit of both" - who depends on his wits to get himself out of inconvenience and would rather attempt to talk out of a circumstance than need to battle out. Which in any case he winds up doing a fraction of the time in light of the fact that he's not as great a talker as he jumps at the chance to think he may be. Highly Recommended.
