How rough is Guardians of the Galaxy ride?

This is hard to explain, but if you know, you know.) By some measures, Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind is on the “more intense” end of the Walt Disney World roller coaster spectrum, but it's not intense by real world roller coaster standards. Nor is it uncomfortable or unpleasant at any point.
