Fantastic all around

Rating: 10/10 (4 November 2017)

Marvel strikes again with a thrilling combination of action and comedy. Taika Waititi did a marvelous job directing this film. Lively action sequences will keep you engaged from start to finish. The laughs flow throughout the movie, but the humor doesn't seem overdone. I found the movie just as funny and engaging as Guardians of the Galaxy; maybe even more so.
The cast, perfectly selected, will keep you entertained at all times. Chris Hemsworth is brilliant, combining humor with sex appeal seamlessly. Cate Blanchett is simultaneously powerful, evil, and irresistible. Taika Waititi himself is a hilarious addition as the rock man, Korg.
The special effects and computer animation make you feel like you're right there in the action, regardless of how over-the-top the scenarios might be. Throughout the film I found myself marveling at the magnitude of the design, color use, and lighting. These elements work together to create something truly alluring. Overall, I had a great time watching this movie and would highly recommend it. Great job Marvel, Waititi, and cast.
