Thor

Rating: 8/10 (19 June 2011)

I was surprised by how good Thor actually is! As this is (to my knowledge) the 1st time Thor has made an appearance on the big screen I knew little about him. He starts the film as an arrogant narrow minded meat head basically with more muscle then sense. He thinks he is unstoppable and can do what ever he wants without consequence. But as the film progresses he matures and becomes the man he needs to be in order to take his fathers place. So we have a coming of age film in a way as well as a super hero movie where he must defend against the big bad guy. So in many ways this is marvels most mature film to date. Add in some stunning scenery and fantastic acting and you have a great film! One thing letting it down is the fact that the bad guys are not really that threatening. All in all a must see!
