Thor Ragnarok Movie Review

by - December 03, 2017

In case you haven't caught the latest Thor movie, i highly recommend you to catch it sometime now or later!!! Admittedly I'm a total Marvel fan, so naturally i follow and support all Marvel movies. BUT i must say this one really takes the cake (even my non-Marvel friends found it really good?! My other friend who usually FALLS ASLEEP in action movies actually kept awake during this one and laughed along at the jokes). So yes!

From the start, it had been light hearted, dotted with witty conversations with the supposed "bad people", and the likes. Im going to skip giving a summary of how the story went (though i thought the Dr Strange part was really strange, and seemed a little out of place), and go right into how i felt about it and my take on it.

One thing that stood out in this movie for me was the fact that the iconic things about Thor are starting to be stripped from him. Namely:
1. His long hair
2. His hammer
3. His perfectly-in-tact body?!
His hair was cut off before he went into battle with Banner, and his hammer was crushed by his evil sister, and his eye ripped out from its socket and now he bears a greater resemblance to his father. I thought it was really unconventional how all these iconic things were taken from him, what makes Thor Thor, what makes him recognisable. Honestly, i didn't read the comics so I'm not so sure if all these are the same, but i know there is going to be a new female Thor (is it going to be Tessa Thompson?), so i was wondering if they were stripping him of his identity to prepare for this takeover...haha!

Overall, really good movie to catch. not a boring moment, it is fun, funny, and certainly entertaining. A good one!
