Image via WikipediaSaw Thor last week, but have to think about it a bit before I give you a full review.
I was NOT familiar with the Thor lore (no pun intended). I am faintly familiar with the Norse mythology, Asgard, and all that.
Overall, I like the movie. It's not quite as much fun as Iron Man, but it is quite good. Everything fits together quite well. The villain is a proper villain, and you're never quite sure which way is he leaning. I enjoy those plot twists. By being casted to Earth, Thor is forced to confront his own attitude toward life, and dial down his hubris when he was forced to do without Mjolnir, and learn a lot about... mortals.
The main problem is there isn't much fighting to really satisfy the fans. There was basically three fights: one at the beginning, one on Earth, and one at the end. (Oh, and one without any superpower) In one of the fights, the good guys are basically punching bags (i.e. tossed left and right) so that sort of doesn't count.
I paid for the 3D version and it's not that helpful. I almost got a headache as eye strain hurts a bit.
Overall, not bad, not bad.
