Looks interesting.

Is that Natalie Portman returning?

Yeap, I'm not 100% sure if she's returning specifically as "Jane" in this as her character name this time (via toy sales) is "The Mighty Thor" which would be incorrect in a few ways if she, as it seems, is some kind of replacement (maybe temporary) for Thor, but once the movie opens we'll find out the exact reason she's there and her purpose - hell it could even just be in a dream sequence for all we know!

Expecting this to be the best MCU film since End Game.

This looks great and hopefully it's a return to form after some of the average films they have released recently.

Korg is one of the best characters in the MCU, they should definitely look to giving him a D+ series.

Best since End Game, that was utter garbage sorry still haven't watched it all, gave up when they time travelled massively fakely, it was so badly done utterly stupid idea, ridiculous, and the last film when Thanos won should have been the end of it, a perfect antidote to MCU, and if they had balls they would have done that, but no profit comes before a good story and they ruined the entire thing with that last atrocity. Oh and from the trailer, this also looks ridiculous, MCU have totally lost the plot recently, need to just stop.

Jesus you really hate Marvel don’t you? Or are you just trolling? That’s two threads now you’ve repeated this garbage.

I don't hate Marvel at all, no, but since End Game it has been fairly tawdry you have to admit, that film was also a bit ridiculous in many ways. the early stuff, Iron Man, Thor, Guardians, Avengers films were great. Watchable numerous times, but be honest would you ever watch Black Widow again, or End Game? It's not Winter Soldier is it, not even close!

It isn’t.

To say it is ‘average’ would be praising it too highly. The only good thing was the soundtrack.

I was ultimately disappointed with the movie. As had been mentioned in a bunch of reviews I've seen, there's just too many pointless jokes and messing about. Thor's character has gone backwards and is now feels closer to how he was at the beginning of the first movie [where he didn't really seem to understand the consequences of his actions]. I struggle to think Chris Hemsworth would want Thor to come across as the village idiot! All the jokes just took away the seriousness of the villain.

Some points I have...

- Asgardians aren't really gods [I think even Odin said so], so wouldn't they of all survived Gore's wish?!

- The few god's we met were dicks. Thor should of just pointed Gore to their secret hideout and let him do his thing.

- I am wrong to think Wakanda could of helped Jane with her issue? I'm sure Thor could of hooked her up!

Anyway, I'm thinking about it far too much. Leave your brain at the door and ignore all previous Marvel movies and it's an enjoyable film!!

Thought it was pretty crap and all over the place, personally.

They get Cristian frickin Bale in to play a complex and dark villain and they waste it! Just so they can have more korg! I loved korg in Ragnarok but he just annoys now, cynic part of me thinks Taika likes the sound of his own voice too much...

Guardians Vol 2 was worse than the original, as the director missed what made the 1st great, but this is an even bigger step down.

Think the only two since end game I've really enjoyed was Shang Chi and No Way Home

Saw it last week.
Have to agree with the above.
It's not good.

watched last night with my 14 year old. We agreed it was a bit of a mess.

Looking at my watch repeatedly from the 45 mins mark. Luckily it is only 1hr 45mins.

Some funny moments, quite a lot of poor jokes and I agree with the poster above who said Thor's character has gone backwards. 2/5 and that's generous.

Watched it with my 9 year old last week. He gave it a 2/10. Trying far too hard to be funny and just not succeeding, annoying cameo appearances just all visuals and no real substance. Shame as Bale’s villain character had something about him that deserved a better story….

What a crock, and probably the weakest of the Marvel films. Everything's a joke, the stupid goats, the piss taking of everything, it's a poor effort. If you thought the second Thor was a bit iffy, it's a masterpiece compared to this. Thinking about it though, aren't all of the Thor films the weakest parts of the whole series (and that includes Black Widow and Ray Winstone's hilarious acting 'abilities').

It's funny how Disney have rushed both this and Dr Strange onto their platforms yet Morbius still isn't anywhere to be seen.

Morbius is Sony so you won't see it on D+ for a while yet, it will probably be on Netflix first.

Watched this tonight, was clock watching after 45 minutes as I wanted to get the washing up from dinner out of the way. As above, What a load of crock (ery)!
