Thor

By mugen shiyo · Sep 16, 2011 · ·
  1. Day off. Decided to reward myself with watching Thor...

    Bore...ring. Well, not completely boring. The ending was cool and the acting seemed to get better near the last twenty minutes, but for much of it, the acting was hokey. The costumes looks like those from the Power Rangers, first season. My favorite character and personality in the movie is Heindall the Watchman...Gatekeeper...Gatewatcher, who seemed very much underpowered- based on actual norse legend and Stan Lee alike. The story is absolutely step-by-step procedure. Anthony Hopkins is a bit of a miscast. I hate that known Hollywood names seem to have to play in roles rather than...say...people who look like or would be appropriate parts for the character.

    Funniest Line, funniest scene..."Do not mistake my appetite for apathy."

    I've been deciding if it's worth watching this, I'm a bit dubious about films based on comic books. The only things worse are films based on computer games. And there are American re-workings of foreign films and TV shows, even ones in English (The Horror!).
    However, I've heard that Thor is quite a good film by everyone who's seen it, so I might give it a go.

    IMHO, both X-Men First Class and and Captain America are better than Thor. IMHO, X-Men First Class is the best super hero film to date.

    Hope that helps you decide :)

    Thor was a poor, poor film after so much hype. I saw it around the same time as Clash of the Titans, and both left me with a sour taste of disappointment after hearing good things about them!

    @ at ScaryMonster, well I've seen pretty misleading reviews that crapped on movies I thoughtwere pretty good so don't let mines dissuade you. It's not stab-yourself-for-buying-it bad, but it certainly wasn't what I was expecting post Dark Knight.

    @ Islander, I JUST got X-Men first class as a chaser from Thor. I hope it's better than that or I'm going back on my movie strike.

    @ Jon, Ughh!!! Clash was a hard one to watch cause I really liked the original I watched as a kid. Ranks up there with the Devil from the movie 'Legend' and Howard the Duck (i don't care what anybody says about it) as childhood favorites.
