Enjoyed Immensely!

Rating: Null/10 (24 October 2011)

I remember checking out books on Norse mythology in middle school and reading them repeatedly. I had no idea until I met my husband that Marvel had made a comic series out of them. (Thanks, honey, for sharing your Thor comics- even if you only let me read the Simonson run... ) Anyway, I found the movie Thor very satisfying- I've watched it repeatedly, and enjoyed it with each repetition (though my husband is now sick of it!) Yes, Chris Hemsworth is hot. But he can also act, and I really felt sympathy for his character when he failed to retrieve the hammer at first (is that a spoiler to anyone still?) And the emotion about losing his father and family was believable. And I also enjoyed the portrayal of bratty 3 yr old type behavior as well... :-) So the transition when Thor finally learns his lesson was effective for me. Tom Hiddleston's Loki was very interesting, and I look forward to seeing more of him in the Avengers. I wish the movies weren't parceled out 1 per year (*sniffle*) Too long to wait.
