Thor DVD Review

Hello all
Well I just got through watching the DVD Thor and let me say it was a good movie but not a great one. First off let me say that if you are not familiar with the origins of the comic book hero Thor that is ok. This is the movie that tells all about him but if you do know something about him then there are going to be little Easter eggs for all the fans, not only that but throughout the movie they allude to the other marvel titles, those mentioned are Iron man, and the Incredible hulk, and the secret after credits scene elludes to Captain America(which I have seen) Also we see hawkeye and while he does not really show us he can fight like black widow did in Iron Man 2 it does give us a peek at what is to come in the Avengers movie coming out next year. The acting was well done with both Anthony Hopkins and Chris Helmsworth both stealing the scenes they are in but also the others, the only one who really is sub par is Loki played by Tom Hiddleston,

Now the bad
First off some of the comedy scenes seem to be thrown in there just to be in there, secondly the movie feels a little rushed in the end and some of the slower going moments throughout the film do not have as much weight as they should be and the ending feels really rushed still with those aside it is still a good movie and one to whine away and own especially if you are an Avengers or a comic book fan and while it aint as good as the dark knight or Iron Man it is still a good one to own or at very least to rent.

Score
8 out of ten stars
