Critic Reviews for zashchitniki

All Critics (12) | Fresh (4) | Rotten (8)

Guardians is a comedy that runs on the dark side of things and works great while doing so.

Emilie Black
Cinema Crazed
It's not just that the story has problems, the execution of the dramatic moments isn't exactly stellar either.

Simply and simply, one of the worst movies of the year. [Full review in Spanish]

Daily Trend (Mexico)
Watching these superheroes save the day will only slow down yours. Stay home and do a Marvel marathon instead.

Nihit Bhave
The Times of India
There's ... a strange kind of charm to it, a sort of admirable 'little engine that could' determination to take Marvel on at their own game.

The film as a whole doesn't have any supernatural abilities, nor anything that makes it unique and unforgettable. [Full review in Spanish]

The Russian film, Guardians, remains in a first sketch of what could have been a fresh response to the genre. [Full review in Spanish]

Sergio López Aguirre
Cine Premiere
A film that makes a praiseworthy effort, but at the moment of executing its missions, its protagonists become mere pretexts to generate interminable and lethargic sequences of action. [Full review in Spanish]

Luis Fernando Galván
En Filme
Similar to the involuntary laughter that B series films provoke, resulting in a cold Russian salad of superheroes lacking charisma and personality. [Full review in Spanish]

Mariana Fernández
Butaca Ancha
It takes the basic formula of Marvel movies, strips away all the characterization and wit, and delivers an entertaining but deeply stupid cheesefest.

Gavia Baker-Whitelaw
The Daily Dot
Guardians undoubtedly manages to deliver set pieces that have never been seen before and in a Moscow setting still relatively alien to international audiences.

Steven Neish
HeyUGuys
The plot is bone-headed and the quality of the visual effects is terrible, but there is a pure, unironic sense of purpose in this film that is utterly charming and, at times, unintentionally hilarious.
