It is a cool movie. It probably has the best visuals in the MCU. And the tone is actually way better than most movies in the MCU but it fails in the pacing.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Thor is a good film, but could have been better in terms of visual film-making. Story is compelling and characters are fantastic, especially Thor. Thor does not "become" a hero in this story, he is born a hero, but not a righteous one. He finds his path to righteousness in this film. Overall the visuals on Asgard could have been better, as it is a very lively city in the comics it originated from.… Expand

I love the fantasy style of this movie, the main character and action. It knows how to ironize at himself, be beautiful and exciting, both in terms of plot and action scenes. In my opinion, this is the best "Thor" from the whole trilogy.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The first hammer throw of the Thunder God! The hammer-wielding and good-looking Thor in his first adventure in the MCU. Director Branagh passionately takes over the narrative style, from this comic book template. You can already see, however, that Branagh is a big Shakespeare fan. Almost monumental, he draws the figures of Thor, Odin or Loki. The city of Asgard is also more likely to come from Hamlet than Marvel. The story tells Branagh well and he also incorporates a lot of humour. For when Thor falls to earth, he has already lost the power of a God. It's not until the second half of the film that stands out. Therefore, it is amusing that the arrogant and beautiful Thor himself falls on the snout and remains equally entitled. Of course, Thor is the hero, so you have to disguise it that he is the same as a human being. He can still fight better and has more strength than three people combined.
In addition to Hemsworth as Thor, there are other confessed performers to his side. Natalie Portman gives the typical, chaotic scientist. While she's a bit cranky, she makes her likeable alongside the overpowering heroes. Stellan Skaarsgard is an old professor who is more than a father figure to Portman. And, of course, Anthony Hopkins as Konigsgott Odin, who still brings a bit of sparkle to this hero saga. Narratively and visually, Branagh has managed not to straddle the adventure on torture for long. You look at it to the performers, which was fun. But among the other Marvel heroes, Thor remains rather weak in content. Although Thor is like that, everything remains self-evident and remains superficial. Conclusion: A colorful adventure that is told briskly. Only character drawing is left behind!… Expand

Thor from what I’ve seen is the most mixed movie in the mcu it’s either like it or hate it I’m in the majority that like it in fact it’s the first marvel movie I would consider good so let’s go over the plot. So there is a place called AsgardThor from what I’ve seen is the most mixed movie in the mcu it’s either like it or hate it I’m in the majority that like it in fact it’s the first marvel movie I would consider good so let’s go over the plot. So there is a place called Asgard and the Ruler Odin tells his two sons Thor and Loki that one of them is worthy to be the ruler of Asgard we cut forward and were at the ceremony who Thor is crowned king until it’s interrupted by frost giants Thor is mad and convinces his friends and Loki to fight the dark elves Odin gets mad at Thor because he just started a war so Odin banishes him to earth with his hammer we then find out that Loki is a frost giant and is adopted with puts Odin in a coma type thing while on earth Thor runs into three scientists Jane, Darcy and Eric who study lightning and weather. Thor locates his hammer and tries to take it back but gets kidnapped by shield and escapes then on Asgard Loki releases a monster to earth which almost killed Thor but Odin cries and it gives Thor back his powers so he goes back to Asgard to defeat Loki but Loki commits suicide off the rainbow bridge and the movie ends. Similar story to iron man its rating went down over time as it was received fine by the public when it came out now people just realize how bad it is but I still think it holds up there are a lot of boring parts and I think some of the cg doesn’t hold up but I give the movie a solid 7/10… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I had been bingewatching all the MCU movies after the release of Infinity War, so that I could catch up before Endgame. This is the reason why I have a good hunch of which movies were very memorable and which ones were easily forgettable. This one here, however, comes under the same category as I'd put Guardians of the Galaxy under: It's memorable and forgettable at the same time. The only thing I remember from this movie is how awesome Loki was and Stan Lee's cameo appearance, but other than that, well, let's just say it all jumped over my head.

It's quite surprising to see how Thor has changed so much since the time we first saw him. Since I am writing this review 4 years after Thor: Ragnarok, I think my idea of Thor has changed a lot by now. Earlier I used to think Thor can never be an interesting character, thanks to this movie. But after seeing what Ragnarok, Infinity War and Endgame did to him, it seems the entire fault was of this movie's director. He made Thor a weird looking guy. Although there's no doubt everyone looks straightup ugly in this movie, the CGI is actually pretty good.

The story is pretty much straightforward: Thor has done a battle which he ruined because of his pompousness and so he has been banished on earth. His hammer has been put at some construction yard or something, and he's no longer worthy enough to lift it. It seems a lot like a copy of the first Assassin's Creed game, since there also Altaïr was the one whose post was stripped and he was sent back to the beginner's ranks. Meanwhile Loki found out he belonged to the enemy demon race and Odin had adopted him after killing his father. Loki teams up with those demons to attack Asgard.

The CGI, I'd admit, is pretty good. Every time I see the Asgard road I always feel like driving a sports car on it. Humans were really boring. All they did was talking, talking and more talking. This isn't something that one'd expect from MCU, and that's pretty obvious since MCU wasn't even decided until this point. But still there should have been a good tone. The twist in the end where Loki decided to save Odin and kill the monster after the monster mentioned Loki helped him was pretty good. I had always wanted a villain to do this: Don't leave yourself vulnerable after being exposed; try to defend yourself and show that the person is lying. And after Loki lost the battle, he pretended to commit suicide in order to show that he only wanted what he believed was justice.

Thor may have been a very forgettable movie, but I do remember it wasn't worth watching the second time. This movie made me fear that MCU could be boring in the future. It also ruined Thor's entire expectations for me. Throughout the movie I was only hoping it would end. The only reason I've given it a good rating is because of Loki, the CGI, and the way they were able to show Asgard's culture. Good movie, but a one time watch.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Thor has lots of visual appeal, nice performances from the cast as a whole, and entertaining action sequences which should keep viewers engaged for the full runtime. Tom Hiddleston does a great job with Loki and gives us a convincing villain with a solid emotional backstory, Jeremy Renner’s Hawkeye cameo is welcome in the film, and it’s both cool and intimidating to hear Anthony Hopkins growl as Odin. The movie takes Thor on a nice character arc which Hemsworth supplements well with his take on the character, and sets Thor up for future installments. However, the fault of this movie for me is the timeline. It takes place over only a few days, and its slightly unbelievable that Thor changes that much during that short span of time. Normally growth and personality changes take months and sometimes even years to occur, and yet Thor is able to that in just a few days. This movie would’ve felt more realistic if it had a time jump of a few months following Thor’s banishment to Earth to truly give the character time to have an arc. With that said, Thor overall is entertaining and engaging and remains a solid enough entry in the franchise.… Expand
