The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special is all out ridiculous kid humor and not critical to the overall MCU story, but it’s a fun way to spend 45 minutes.
Marvel’s second Disney+ special is another success! This Guardians of the Galaxy special is much more kid-focused than Werewolf by Night, with the humor dipping into extreme goofball. Still, it is nice to laugh with some of the goofier characters of the Marvel Universe. The idea to bring Kevin Bacon into the MCU as himself was comedy genius, and the whole special ends with a sweet, sincere family feeling. I wouldn’t say this Holiday Special was as impressive as Werewolf by Night, but it was fun, and the quality and effects felt on par with the movies. Again, I wouldn’t say it is a must-see, but if you love Marvel movies and a good laugh, you will enjoy giving this 45 minutes of your time.
