Old cast members, veter- ans of 2014's popular and critically acclaimed "Guardians of the Galaxy," include director-writer James Gunn and stars Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana and Dave Bautista. New pivotal performers are Kurt Russell (as Ego, father of Pratt's protagonist, Peter "Star-Lord" Quill); Elizabeth Debicki (as villain- ous, golden-skinned Ayesha); and Pom Klementieff (as Mantis, soul mate of Bautista's Drax the Destroyer). Borrowed from many pre- vious motion pictures is the idea of the cameo, and bor- rowed from many previous Marvel Studios productions is the casting of Stan Lee, nonagenarian ex-Marvel Comics mogul, in a cameo role. (Sylvester Stallone has taken on a role only slightly larger.) Blue? That's the skin color of Michael Rooker's charac- ter Yondu, another returnee from the 3-year-old original. "Vol. 2," as did the prede- cessor flick, has a futuristic setting — a time when "mul- tiverse" has come to replace "universe" in the common parlance. Patrons who contributed to the first installment's $700 million gross may recall intergalactic adventurer Peter's pilfering an orb and then finding himself dogged by evil forces bent on mass destruction. (Consequently, he teamed with a handful of unlikely heroes, including a taciturn tree voiced by Vin Diesel and a wisecracking raccoon voiced by Bradley Cooper, to do a little, well, galaxy guarding.) "So we're saving the galaxy again?" Rocket Raccoon inquires at one point of the sequel. He gets an affirmative answer. This time, though, the rac- coon, the tree and the actors who continue to speak for them also dig into the murky issue of Quill's parentage. True, Ego is introduced as Peter's papa (one can see as much on a trailer, so no spoiler here), but there's more to the story than that. On paper "Vol. 2" is a marathon at 137 minutes, but onscreen it fairly zips along, a refreshing exception in a too-often blood-soaked and too-seldom uplifting cine- matic genre. Three cheers for its repar- tee, quirky characters and humorous happenings. Three more for its sound- track, representing nearly a score of songs — "Brandy," "My Sweet Lord" and (a par- ticularly pleasant surprise) the Aliotta Haynes Jeremiah salute to Chicago, "Lake Shore Drive," to name just a few. Outstanding special effects, homages to long-ago films and some clever, more contemporary cultural refer- ences add to the fun. A "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3" is planned. Walt Disney Studios Kurt Russell, left, and Chris Pratt are father and son, giving a twist to "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2." The new wrinkle goes beyond the father-son relationship. Walt Disney Studios Drax (Dave Bautista), left, meets a soul mate in Pom Klementieff's Mantis in "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2." 'Guardians of the Galaxy' wins again at the multiplex 'Vol. 2' a familiar, successful formula "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2" ★★★1/2 Starring: Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Dave Bautista, Kurt Russell, Elizabeth Debicki, Pom Klementieff, Michael Rooker; voices of Vin Diesel, Bradley Cooper Director-writer: James Gunn MPAA rating: PG-13 Running time: 137 minutes Release date: Now showing Showings: www.marcustheatres.com At a glance Three cheers for its repartee, quirky characters and humorous happenings.
