Loved It - wasn't sure I would.

Rating: 10/10 (9 November 2013)

I was worried that the color being so blue-ish and steel-like would distract me, along with the obviously make up artist change, but the story is very clever and well acted out. For whatever reason MARVEL spares no expense to add levity across the film to make the severe theme(s) less painful (without spoilers). Stay until after the entire credits sequence, and when you get home pre-order the DVD. Tom as Loki is priceless, and the Eric Selvig character actor is almost Cleese-like. It's nothing like Ironman 3 nor Wolverine, it's all MARVEL keeping in phase with the upcoming stories. You'll love how creative they get with Thor's Hammer as well - pay close attention to it toward the end of the film.
