GotG3 was a really fun watch. Many of the elements that made 1 & 2 fun were there but I felt that this was an evolution beyond that. Learning about Rocket's backstory made it sort of an origin story as much as it was a trilogy closer.

Waited 20 years for this movie... This movie was everything the original Disney animated version was plus everything it couldn't be at the time. As one who owned that movie on VHS and owned the soundtrack on audio tape (both of which were played literally countless times), I appreciated how true it was to the orginal (the songs, the background music, the dialogue, etc). But I also really appreciated the expansion of the visuals, the new song, some updated lyrics, new themes. It was truly a delight to view. Additionally Will Smith did an amazing job as the Genie, which is a concern for any true Disney Aladdin fan. (The 2nd animated film fell flat for many reasons including a Robin Williamsless Genie). All in all I believe it is a movie for all ages but do believe it will be extra special for those fans of the animated version.
