Hollywood Royally Trashes Nordic Mythology

Rating: 4/10 (11 June 2014)

Movie Quote: "For the first time in my life I have no idea what I'm supposed to do." (Duh! Thank you, Thor!)
When Asgard's #1 hillbilly-hero (the big, blond, bad-boy, Thor) flashed Jane a dumb "aw-shucks" smile and said - "Where I come from magic & science are one and the same." - That, all you fans of intelligent Sci-Fi, summed up this rinky-dinky, little, thumb-twiddler in a literal cosmic-nutshell.
With Thor obviously having more brawn than brains, I honestly couldn't tell which was thicker - His skull or his beloved hammer (which, by the way, clearly looked to be made out of plastic).
Basically a very stale "good bro/bad bro" story, "Thor's" villain (brother Loki) was such a sniveling wimp that he couldn't even bask in the glory of his own wickedness and that, in my books, rendered him completely useless in the scheme of things.
With its technology overload and its equally absurd costumes straight out of a Sci-Fi convention, "Thor" was very much on par with that of a really bad LSD trip where even Asians and Blacks inexplicably played their heroic part in toppling Nordic Mythology to its very foundation.
The sucking back and forth between different realms was, genuinely, a messy and confused affair. This ridiculous business quickly became so annoyingly monotonous that I decided that, on top of all of its other flaws, "Thor" only deserved a 4-star rating.
From start to finish, this film was an utter disgrace to all things regarded as noble and heroic. And the trite, little romance that transpired between that big, blundering oaf, Thor, and the mousy, non-charismatic Jane, sucked to the 10th power.
