Thor

Movie Name: Thor
Genre: Action, Romance, Supernatural
Language: English

I watched the morning show for “Thor”. It was first time that I watched some 3D movie where the 3D effects were not forced. They were used quite frequently but without giving you a headache.

The story is about Thor, god of thunder. He was banished from his world as his father Odin was not pleased with his arrogance and pride. He came to earth and learnt living without his power. The rest of the story follows his trials and rising to the top again. The movie is based on Marvel comic character.

Chris Hemsworth has looked good as Thor. He has expressed the arrogant and soft side of Thor very well. Tom Hiddleston has also portrayed Loki graciously. He was able to get to the psyche of the character. The only actor I was not impressed with was Anthony Hopkins. He was not that impressionable in his role of King Odin. Other actors and actresses had not much to contribute.

The graphics are good. Action sequences are good but cannot be considered as par with other movies like Ironman or Hulk. As the movie spent significant time giving details about Thor, the story was a bit rushed. The background music was a bit lacking. Overall the movie is a treat for comic fans. It may not be categorized along with Dark Knight or Ironman but it is worth a watch.

My ratings are 3.5/5.0
