Better than you'd think

Rating: 7/10 (28 April 2019)

Known across the Marvel fan base as the worst of the MCU films much of the time, it gets too much hate. When it comes to a stand alone Thor sequel, I really could not have expected anything different. This sadly means that it is quite forgettable but even so, it is a Thor movie. Dark World focuses mainly on Thor, and Thor. The supporting cast is there but much less important than anything Thor does to progress the plot (the plot on Earth has no effect on the story). Even though this movie is a progression of the Thor series, it still manages to provide no development of the mentality of Thor, or Loki, or even Odin. This movie seems to me as a good way for Marvel to accomplish things that set up other movies now, The Aether, deaths, etc.
