He took to Twitter and wrote, "I saw #GuardiansOfTheGalaxyVol3 last night and WOW. @prattprattpratt, you crushed it. A non-stop, perfect mix of comedy and action. I loved it and I'm very, very proud of you. (sic)"



 

'He's very, very smart and he's a quick'

Arnold most recently commended Pratt, his son-in-law, for his chess prowess and said on ExtraTV, "In all fairness, I am a mediocre chess player… It is just that Chris Pratt has just begun playing chess, but he's very, very focused. He's very, very smart and he's a quick, quick learner. I think he's extraordinary. I was in the middle of a game, almost losing the game, so I had to stay focused. I had to visualize myself as the winner. I said, 'Please, can you leave right now? I'm about to lose!'"

While having the 'Terminator' actor as a family member has been "surreal," Pratt recently said that he has appreciated getting to know the "regular" person behind the Hollywood action hero. Pratt also admitted that he has "never" been able to defeat his father-in-law at chess.

'We play chess a lot. I've never beaten him'

He commented on 'Late Night with Seth Meyers, "It is pretty surreal! I've gotten to obviously to know the regular guy and all of that, he's a great dad, a great grandad, and a good father-in-law, and he's got a wealth of experience. It's been very nice, he's a great dude. We play chess a lot. I've never beaten him, he's very, very good," as reported by Celebpost.
