It's so beautiful sometimes I forget Guardians of the Galaxy really is the better movie. Guardians of the Galaxy 2 has some really terrific moments and upped the ante even more with the soundtrack.
There's 3 moments in GOTG2 that annoy me. Just and only 3, and they're all comic relief I thought took away from the seriousness of the situation. Unlike the comedy in the rest of the movie, which I loved, these 3 moments took away from what should have been the more balanced serious parts. They are: 1) the ravagers being catapulted into the air by Rocket's booby traps, 2) Ego turning into David Hasselhoff in the middle of the revelation that he murdered Starlord's mother, and 3) the mid-air collision final battle wherein Starlord chooses to turn into Pacman.
The first can be forgiven. The next took took away from two of the film's most earned moments.
Nonetheless I loved GOGT2. Similarly to Ragnarok, GOGT2 did really well and is still kind of understated for what it brings to the table. This on top of the money and praise it already has.
