This plot is nothing more than a coathanger to hang six characters all bouncing off each other and being hilarious.
I don't think I'm overselling it when I say John Cena as Peacemaker is one of the funniest TV show performances of the past decade. He's captured every ounce of the Starlord magic in a Gunn character. He's hysterical in the role. What'shisname as Vigilante is right on his tail.
Everybody else is really well written, with the exception of the female detective, who's character was really great but kind of just existed on the margins until recently.
Really good work from Gunn, here. The plot isn't great but it doesn't need to be, this is a comedy.
