The god of thunder is stripped of his powers and banished to Midgard for crimes against the kingdom of Asgard. For those of you who know nothing about Thor this movie will be better than fair despite some painfully cheesy and forced laugh lines (how many times you going to hit him with a car?). For those of us who know Thor this is another come up short for Hollyweird. While its not a complete disaster, they take a lot of liberties with a guy who is supposedly the fiercest warrior in a realm of warriors. If you can get past that, the Dawsons Creek dialogue, and the predictability, you are left with some cool FX, action and a surprisingly cool portrayal of Loki. Oh and the built in plug to the Avengers movie. Marvel movies are starting to look, unfortunately, more and more like their comics.. speaking for myself I am tired of plug-n-play and would welcome something that requires a little chewing. Artwork is nice, but you need story for an encore.
