5.0 out of 5 stars Awsom
This movie was very well done with non stop action and easy to follow story line. The actors picked to play the roles I thought fit perfectly and as I happen to be a superhero buff I absolutely loved this movie and recomend that anyone and everyone should buy it.

3.0 out of 5 stars No French audio on dvd
The movie is good but for those interested, only the blu-ray has the French audio track. The dvd has only French subs. The bonus deleted scenes are also just on the blu-ray. I was not impressed by the image quality of the digital copy.

4.0 out of 5 stars great action, Oct 26 2011
This review is from: Thor (Blu-ray/DVD with Digital Copy Combo Pack) (Blu-ray)
wow it looks like 2011 will be the year that restores my faith in pg-13 super hero movies/ i usually like my violence to be shown in full out rated r mayhem but aparently this year directors are figuring out how to make action movies for 'everyone'. first x-men first class and now thor. one thing i really liked about this movie is that the enemies are these crazy, entirly cgi creatures that somehow dont come off as looking stupid because of over cgi, something lots of directors need to take note of. Because the cgi is done right the action scenes look beutifully epic and i was just waiting for each battle to erupt. Any scene with natalie portman could have been scrapped but i guess i movie isnt a movie without a storyline so we can keep that in there to give some sort of reasoning to the real girth of this movie, the action! now im looking forward to captain america and green lantern.

5.0 out of 5 stars Two Thumbs up for Thor, Oct 9 2011

The movie was good for anyone that like or love action and comic films. It also has a great story to go with the action which makes it a great film to watch. The acting is very good even with some goofy parts.

2.0 out of 5 stars Meh, May 31 2013

I can sum up what's wrong with this work very easily: it's the kind of film where characters do, say, and feel things because the script says they do. The most egregious example of this is the romantic sub-plot between Thor and Jane Foster. It's just sort of plopped in our laps that these two characters who've only just met are now madly in love.

Are they? Well gee. How about that, huh?

There are also problems with the visual design of the film. I'm particularly thinking here of the sets and costuming. To be fair, they started out with the right idea, taking their cues directly from Jack Kirby's original work on the Marvel comic book version of Thor. But while the idea may have been great, the execution was profoundly uninspired. Just as any mediocre art student can "copy" van Gogh's style up to a point, these people have copied Kirby... up to a point. But that spark of something exceptional that allowed Kirby to truly add to the visual language of our culture - it's just not there. The electrifying energy and well-nigh cosmic sense of portent that were such hallmarks of Kirby's work are nowhere to be found. In this film Loki's helm looks like exactly what it is: a chunk of plastic.

In the end, I'd have to say that what's really wrong with the film is the same thing that's wrong with most superhero films: even though they hired a bunch of A-listers to pull it off, having been hired these people did not apparently see any real need to take what they were doing especially seriously. It's not that they produced a campy farce. It's more that they very obviously didn't feel the need to bring their own A-games to bear. After all, it's only a superhero movie. A summer blockbuster. `Nuff said.

To be fair, for the most part the fault lies not so much with the actors as with the writers and director (although in exception to this, I'm not entirely sure that Anthony Hopkins was even awake for much of the filming). But getting back to those behind the camera, it's quite plain for all to see that these people just didn't care that much about what they were doing.

As a result, just...

Meh.

Theo.

5.0 out of 5 stars Make another one soon please.., Feb 9 2013
This review is from: Thor (Blu-ray/DVD with Digital Copy Combo Pack) (Blu-ray)
I just love this movie especially when they were on Asgard that was the best
part i think.they should never of banished him from his home world of Asgard but i guess when you're arrogant and daddy
doesn't take too kindly to your attitude that will happen. but it was very weird watching Nattily Portman Act the part on Earth
when she saw Chris Hemsworth it was like she had never seen a man in her life
[Horny little thing] the earth part was a little boring for me but overall i love it i hope they make another
one soon..

Bought this movie for my husband for Christmas and we were both a little dissapointed. Wanted to see it before the Avengers but did not enjoy it. Very corny.

I'm a huge fan of this movie, and I wanted to own it on blue ray, since I have the avengers on blue ray. It came fast, it works, and it's exactly as described, nothing was missing. I Recommend.
