I say, old champ, jolly good show.

Rating: 9/10 (30 August 2011)

When I was a kid, I was never into Thor type of comics (or any superhero, for that matter). I guess I was waiting for the movies (like Batman, Spiderman, Iron Man, Hulk and others, including this one). It is quite surprising how a teenage "stimulus for imagination" can be turned in such fun and entertaining movies for virtually every generation, subtly avoiding the dangers of banality. Thor is almost an excellent movie: non- pretentious, well directed (good job, Mr. Branagh) and carried out in every aspect. The casting is also not bad but it really doesn't matter here. Any combination of actors could do. When you put a good story in good hands (and have a lot of money and enthusiasts to support it), nothing can go wrong. And it didn't. This is what most of the movies should be about: entertainment. Every once in a while such a bulls-eye pops out. And is very well worth watching. Can't wait for the "part II". Strongly recommended.
