An unlikely group of damaged mercenaries band together to save the day. Each one, found at their lowest point, works through their personal trauma to help a person in need, inadvertently finding their own purpose in life and giving hope to the world.

This latest installment in the Marvel Cinematic Universe examines broken characters. It introduces one who does not fit the classic superhero archetype. The story shares the dark parts of these characters after their introduction into the universe, their struggles, emotions, mental state, and humanity. While the story seems dark, the movie does a great job keeping it light with comedy and action. Having past knowledge of these characters will help you fully appreciate this movie, but it is not required to enjoy it. This movie may not be what fans of the MCU are waiting for, but it does foreshadow what's to come to an extent. Overall, not a standard Marvel movie, fans should catch it on the big screen, and casual watchers might want to stream it.
