Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2 (2017)

I am watching all the nominated films for the Oscars, and this is one of them (nominated in the category with other CGI single category nominees, largely).  I am nothing if not thorough.  A less kind person would call it an obsession.  This is pretty much what you would expect from a misfit super hero movie.  Lots of dysfunctional family stuff superimposed on a little bit of wrong doing that leads to a full scale revenge plan.  Groot is still the cutest amongst them.  Drax is still relatively clueless.  The two sisters have a death feud going on, and Peter meets his father.  As you might predict, that is a bit touch and go, and in the end it is all go.  The special effects are really spectacular, and that is the only reason to watch this too long, over two hours, movie.
