Brave attempt - but just fell short on delivery

Rating: 6/10 (25 April 2011)

Being a huge Marvel mark I was looking forward to see how well Kenneth Branagh handled Thor. All in all a solid showing but felt the film fell short and didn't contribute enough to the growing 'Avengers' title as the Iron Man and Captn America title promises.
The characters felt a little too white and black without the usual Marvel 'Greys' however strong performances by Hemsworth and Hiddleston.
Plot although entertaining was at times a bit of a head scratcher with a lot of unanswered questions about the main antagonist's plot.
Still it served its purpose and kept us marvel junkies going until Ol' Capn. lights up the screens later this summer.
One small spoiler - as will all marvel titles wait until after the end credits. There's is a little reward (Albeit very little)
