A man's got to know his limitations

| Thanks for the review, it is a movie I will have in my collection when it comes out on disc.

In search of baseball, strippers, and guns
| I've been fairly disappointed with the first two Thor movies but have heard great things about this one. I'm taking my kids and all their friends tomorrow afternoon. Can't wait!

What is the soup du jour?
| I really liked the film. The only thing lacking was the villain. Too one directional and unsympathetic. She was like a comet headed for Asgard. Just an unfeeling celestial body. Jeff Goldblum was fantastic. |

| Very much enjoyed it Spoiler alert I was a little disappointed that Des and Stroy had damn near unlimited magazine capacity when finally put into action And when they showed the close up on one of them firing, the dust cover is very clearly closed Small thing only a gun dude would notice or care about....but that's me In a proud Dad moment, my oldest son actually said audibly during the scene "Oh come on, those are 30 round magazines"

My ten year old said the same thing! We enjoyed the movie.

A Beautiful Mind

| Saw it tonight. Enjoyed the movie and also enjoyed the almost constant laughs it got from the packed audience. |

| Didn’t like it much. Very campy and the jokes were beyond corny. Maybe 1 in 3 or 1 in 4 would laugh. Really liked the first Thor film, been downhill ever since. I think I’m done seeing Superhos at the theater. Will wait for discs in the future.

Unapologetic Old School Curmudgeon

| It was better than Thor 1 or 2 I thought. I really didn't care for Thor 2 at all. This was a long movie, but it was pretty good, they took a cue from Guardians and added a lot of humor

Gotta admit, seeing Blanchett all blacked-out was rather hot, channeling Eva Green and her all-black dye-jobs.
I agree. "Another day, Another Doug" |

| Watched it today and loved it. Breath of fresh air for the character. H's a fantastical character so it lends itself to being more lighthearted. Hard to do a dark, gritty and realistic movie with the god of thunder. They tried it with Superman and failed miserably.
The first Thor worked because it was a funny fish out of water story. The second movie failed because it took itself seriously.
It was very 80s, right down to the unlimited ammo cheat code being enabled. That was a very big 80s trope. |
