A fitting end to the best of all the character trilogies. Dark, dark moments but even these are soaking in love and friendship and humour. Funny, emotional, well-written with a genuinely brilliant villain, and uplifting / thoughtful ending. People are being so overly dramatic / sensitive and demanding about what they want out of these movies. Yes this movie is a little busy but it looks and sounds so real, is brimming with detail, and is Rocket's story. Yes this is about animal testing / cruelty. But it's portrayed as nothing but evil, which it is. People being precious about their children seeing this are odd. The first GoG was about a genocidal maniac. The second about a demi-god who wants to take over all life. Thanos tortured his daughters and snapped away civilisations. They've always been dark. A riot.

Full of craziness and sentimental fan service but who cares?! It's Star Wars. It was always about having fun and letting go. What a film. Looks and sounds amazing. JJ Abhrams carrying on from the plots he started beautifully. A bit crowded but amazing tying off of all the themes. Family, love, hope, evil, humour and joy.
