A well done comic related movie.

Rating: 7/10 (10 May 2014)

A really enjoyable movie and decent 3D effects in it although not over the top but I definitely oh'ed and ah'ed watching the movie. The graphics combined with great acting made for a very fun viewing. The combat definitely looked great with all the special effects added. The stone creature Thor absolutely obliterated was outstanding looking and that scene where he was defeated the stone creature was pretty funny. In fact I think on the subject of funny they did a good job of adding light hearted moments in this film without it feeling forced and not ending up corn ball.
The main characters not from Earth were interesting. Thor, Loki and Odin had an interesting family dynamic going on. It kept me interested. I also did have my heart strings pulled when Thor's mom was killed. The funeral / ceremony to honour her death was very interesting and I wonder what all the parts of the ceremony meant.
In regards to the ending to this movie it left me shocked and wondering what I missed. I definitely want to go back and look and see if I can figure out how Loki did what he did. I definitely will be interested to see the next movie if there is one planned.
In regards to the acting it was what it should be. I would say that playing Thor had to be difficult and to not have it turn out cheese ball is an accomplishment for Chris Hemsworth.
I should also mention that the scene where Loki, Tom Hiddleston, and Thor, Chris Hemsworth, fought together and supposedly the character Loki died well I thought that was really well played. Outstanding. Another example of where action/combat in this film shined.
Let me finally say I was a person who knew nothing of this story coming in as I don't know the whole Marvel Comics thing and yet I found watching the film extremely enjoyable and in the end wanted more.
I am going to give the movie a 7 out of 10.
