Nice Effects

Rating: 6/10 (12 July 2014)

It is good to see the Norse mythology come to life via Marvel comics. I still love the imagery of Asgard and Jotunheim and the other -heims and -gards. I really liked the look and feel of Heimdall, Loki, Thor, Odin and Frigga, even though I always imagined it as just a big wooden hall, not a high tech palace.
The acting is mostly fine. The action is relentless. I still don't understand what actually happened - some ancient enemies were defeated but they came back and wielded phenomenal cosmic power and had some awesome space ships and shot lasers at the Norse Gods who fired their lasers back. Why do they even have swords? Oh well.
It was fun. Just don't think too hard.
