"As far as Special Presentations go, I really enjoy the format for Marvel. I prefer it over series.
The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special and Werewolf by Night are so, so different which is great. Guardians feels like a silly mini-movie check-in with top tier characters."

Comicbook"s James Viscardi claimed that the special will "melt every "No Christmas stuff before Thanksgiving" purists" heart:"

"The #GOTGHoliday special will melt every "No Christmas stuff before Thanksgiving" purist"s heart. Such a feel good tale from James Gunn that shows everyone why Pom Klementieff and Dave Bautista are SO freaking good at what they do."

Collider"s Steven Weintraub admitted that the Holiday Special "made [him] smile a lot:"

"The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special" is a lot of fun and made me smile a lot. Unlike everything Marvel it"s not pushing the next MCU movie or show. It"s exactly what the title is selling a holiday special. If you"re a fan of Drax and Mantis you"re going to love it."

Anthony from the Movie Podcast shared that director James Gunn "celebrates the value of family" in the MCU"s Holiday Special: 

"#GuardiansOfTheGalaxy Holiday Special is a HO HO HO BUNCH OF FUN! James Gunn celebrates the value of family and how you’re never too old to believe in the magic of Christmas. Pom Klementieff & Dave Bautista are a JOY TO WATCH. Marvel Studios has gifted us another great special!"

Shahbaz from the Movie Podcast offered high praise to Pom Klementieff and Dave Bautista"s performance, claiming that they are the "perfect pair:"

"CHRISTMAS TIME IS HERE! #GOTGHolidaySpecial is a JOYOUS MIRACLE. Pom Klementieff & Dave Bautista are a perfect pair as we laugh, cry & sing along their adventure for the ultimate gift. James Gunn continues to tug the heartstrings. This ones on the nice list! #GuardiansOfTheGalaxy"

A certain Blogger at Such Moving Pictures noted that "Mantis is truly one of the best characters in the MCU" after watching the Holiday Special:

"THE GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY HOLIDAY SPECIAL is so much fun!! Happy to have these fucking weirdos back front-and-center after their barely-there cameo in LOVE AND THUNDER. Mantis is truly one of the best characters in the MCU."

The Wrap"s Andy Ortiz praised Kevin Bacon"s performance in the Holiday Special, teasing that he"s excited to see where the character goes from here: 

"The #GotGHolidaySpecial is just so much fun. Not nearly enough Nebula, but that"s an evergreen feeling for me. Lots of laughs and joy. And honestly, hard to imagine a better kick-off to a career for Kevin Bacon, really excited to see where he goes from here."

Content Creator Deo described the Holiday Special as "very charming:"

"The guardians of the galaxy holiday special was very charming. It’s filled with heart, action, and laughs. The ending hits VERY hard. Groot being practical was dope. The music was amazing too 10/10"

Yahoo"s Kevin Polowy proclaimed that Holiday Special is "Dave Bautista & Pom Klementieff"s show:"

"The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special is really enjoyable. Here for anything that celebrates the legend of The Legendary Kevin Bacon, but this is Dave Bautista & Pom Klementieff"s show, aka Drax & Mantis Go to Hollywood, and they are a total riot. Especially while drunk."
