Groot Takes a Bath

Groot takes a bath in 'Groot Takes A Bath (2022)', one of five short films focusing on the quick-fire escapades of the eponymous infant tree. A couple of enjoyable visuals elevate this mostly generic outing above at least a couple of its peers, but it's still just fine overall. It's harmless fluff, really. Its narrative is fairly entertaining, principally because it isn't drawn out, and its jokes are conceptually sound, even if they rarely land as well as they ought to. It's as difficult to overtly like as it is to overtly dislike, though, because there's very little to it. Still, its fleeting charm is likely to appeal to fans of its focal character.
