Thor: 3...2...1
Thor being my favourite avenger, I have waited a long 5
years to see him again in his own film, especially with his brief appearance in
the last avengers film. I was ready to see them surfer-esc waves and witty
humour that comes along with every Thor encounter so it was bittersweet
watching a movie where they butcher his hair off and the comedy seems very
try-hard.
Although this film did delight with a handful of new and
hopefully permanent characters; Korg, a loveable stone man whose exterior is a
literal metaphor for how his interior is and Vaylkerie, a character who we aren't
too fond of at the start but are rooting for her and Thor to happen at the end,
definitely a future possible love interest with the brief mention of Thors
break up to Jane at the start of the film.
The creators of this film knew exactly what would make the audience
laugh as many of times the whole audience did in fact and so loud you couldn't
hear the next line. I did find this film funny I just think that some of the
one-liners were predictable and forced BUT upon reading up on this film I
learned that 80% of this film was ad-libbed so my argument stands quite
invalid.
The first main female villain in a Marvel movie did not disappoint,
she didn't go down easily like other villains which made for a good ongoing
fight throughout the whole film and worrying for Thors life at one point, Cate
Blanchett wowed with her performance and carried it off great with no sign of
the male gaze theory also which is a huge success in my eyes.
The return of Loki and Hulk was a nice element, having missed them both from the last few Marvel movies we find out why, both their own style of humour and personalities only added to the movie. Loki didn't betray Thor quite as much as were used to making the fan favourite and go on and hoping the brotherly banter continues.
Even though the humour was slightly predictable I did find this movie very enjoyable, with great characters, music and special effects. Although not my favourite of the Thor trilogy still a quality film. Would highly recommend.
