Disney Plus' 'I Am Groot' First Critics' Reactions Are Out Online

Los Angeles, July 27 - Disney Plus is preparing for its next and probably the most unique series "I Am Groot". The adorably chaotic Baby Groot, one of the Guardians of the Galaxy, is set to headline his first own show on the streamer.

"I Am Groot" is Marvel Studios' second fully animated Disney+ series after "What If...?". The upcoming series consists of five shorts that make up the entire series. These shorts will all premiere at once on Wednesday, August 10 on Disney+/Disney+Hotstar.



It will be a completely different series in the MCU, meaning nothing Groot does in this show will have any effect on the live-action Guardians movies. This new series will give a fun look into the fan-favorite Guardian of the Galaxy, also called a hero of a few words as he takes on his own battles and challenges.

Meanwhile, the first critics' reactions to the series are out online two weeks before it officially debuts on the streamer. Going by the reactions, it seems Baby Groot will make everyone fall in love with him once again.

#IAmGroot is undeniably the most adorable project in the MCU.

Pure fun, pure chaos, and it had me smiling the entire way through.

If you’re looking for something entertaining and easy to watch, with a few surprises, this short series is for you.

The visuals are amazing too! pic.twitter.com/TSfIqf6F1M

Just watched #IAmGroot and I can already tell my niece is going to watch this thing no less than 200 times.

So much fun. So fun to look at. And who doesn't love Baby Groot?

People forget that Baby Groot walked to Baby Yoda could run.

Disney+'s new #IAmGroot quickly grows on you. It's bite-sized shorts about the pint-sized Marvel superhero. Each one explores a bit more of Baby Groot's personality. Clever, funny & sweet w/ a slight dark touch - also beautifully animated. Maybe it should be retitled 'I Am Cute.' pic.twitter.com/2oP8mJuDlB

#IAmGroot could not be more charming if it tried. It captures the weird humor of the Guardians movies in spades in such an understated, smart way. The animation and creature designs are stunning. Episode 4 is definitely my favorite. Good vibes all around. pic.twitter.com/KkoS5Z4QQS

'I Am Groot' is the perfect vehicle for Baby Groot to shine. Proving once again what we love about him: he brings a little chaos everywhere he goes. Short, sassy, and sweet: your whole family will love this series- especially #4. On Disney+ August 10 #IAmGroot #disneyplus pic.twitter.com/EtPTJ6mu6q

#IAmGroot? More like "cute," because Disney+'s Groot shorts are delightful little snippets featuring everyone's favorite mono-phrased tree alien. The comedy is surprisingly dark, though still family friendly, and often feels like lost bits from the Guardians movies. Two Groots up pic.twitter.com/JbIZYAPlr3

The little man and I just watched all of #IAmGroot and he was cracking up the whole time. It’s a set of fun little adventures that feature incredible animation and some clever storylines. Also it has the best @MarvelStudios intro yet. Sure to be a big hit! pic.twitter.com/AQse0l5PiA
