Thor movie review

Warning, spoilers follow Ever since The Avenger craze started up these past few months, I've been wanting to see all the films leading up to the one in theaters(which I have yet to see) and Thor had been one I'd especially been looking forward to. I'd heard a lot of good things about this film and when I saw images of Asgard, the action sequences, and the characters, I knew I would really enjoy the movie. And it did not disappoint! So far, I have seen Iron Man, Thor, and Captain America and Thor is my favorite out of the three(though I did enjoy all the Avenger films I've seen so far) :D. The story revolves around the Norse gods of Asgard, especially Odin's son Thor who is to ascend to the throne. When Frost Giants interrupt Thor's coronation, he goes with his brother Loki, and friends Lady Sif and the Warriors Free to take revenge. Things don't go according to plan and Thor ends up breaking the unstable truce between the Frost Giants and the gods. Because of his arrogance and thoughtlessness, Thor is stripped of his powers(hammer) and his immortality and is sent to earth until he can learn humility. Thor is then found by a group of scientists and has to find out to survive in this new world and find out the truth that is going on inside his own family.

The Good: I loved practically the entire film, it was awesome!!! :D :D :D. I loved the action sequences, they were really cool, especially the ones in Asgard and the Frost Giant world, Jotunheim. I also loved the scene where Thor attacks the S.H.I.E.L.D operative place to get his hammer; that whole action/chase scene rocks! :D I really enjoyed the characters(and the actors that played them), especially Thor, Loki, and Odin; the dynamics where really good between these characters and I really wished we could have seen more of them(though both Thor and Loki are in The Avengers so I'm excited about seeing that :) ). I also enjoyed Lady Sif and the Warriors three; they were really cool characters and I know several of the actors from some of my favorite t.v shows which was really neat(Jaime Alexander(Lady Sif) who was Jessi XX in Kyle XY and Joshua Dallas(Fandral) who plays Prince Charming/David Nolan on Once Upon a Time). Seeing Natalie Portman was also really awesome since she is one of my favorite characters, I just wish we could have seen more of her(though she did really good in her role). I really liked the humor as well, the parts where Thor kept getting hit by cars and getting stocked/sedated where great. I also liked the fact that pretty much all the characters were likable or easy to relate to; even when Thor was making dumb decisions at the beginning, I never disliked him; he was always a nice guy, he just had to learn humility and kindness. I also really liked how Loki was portrayed; he was a very interesting bad guy and I liked that he had dimension and a vulnerable side(I felt bad for him when he found out what he was).

The bad: You know, I actually don't have that many complaints about the film; I just wish it could have been longer but beyond that, I loved it!! :D Overall I enjoyed the film and I really can't wait to see The Avengers since it looks awesome! :D :D (look for a Captain America review tomorrow).
