Storyline
The warrior Thor (Hemsworth) is cast out of the fantastic realm of Asgard by his father Odin (Hopkins) for his
arrogance and sent to Earth to live among humans.
Falling in love with scientist Jane Foster (Portman) teaches Thor much-needed lessons, and his new-found strength comes into play as a villain from his homeland sends dark forces toward Earth.
Movie Reviews of THOR
Thor was much much better than I expected. I didn't know if they could pull
of the balance between the Norse mythology stuff and the real world Marvel
Universe. I should've known better because Marvel knows their
characters and knows what we want to see. Spider-Man set a new standard
for the superhero film genre back in the day. Iron Man upped the ante.
hor takes the ball and runs with it and places that bar even higher.
I look forward to seeing it again and know it will do well enough to
be worthy of a sequel because word of mouth is going to be great.
Trust me when I say Thor REALLY IS as good as Iron Man and is most
worthy to be called one of the greatest adaptations ever.
Chris Hemsworth as the Norse god Thor, and Tom Hiddleston as his
villainous brother Loki show they have the acting ability and
star quality to become mega-marquee names in the future.
Marvel found two absolute diamonds in the rough.
Both actors make a HUGE impression and are wonderful on screen.
You knew Acedemy Award winners Anthony Hopkins and Natalie
Portman would bring it but these relative unkowns more than hold
their own on screen. I know the script is written mostly for them
but they carry it in a big way. From what I've read, Hemsworth and
iddleston were cast almost a year in advance of filming the story so,
they had time to get into shape and do character research.
They certain did these long-time Marvel greats proud.
Intelligent comic-book popcorn epics are rare and this
one is definitely a cut above the usual fare.
