Thor

      My husband loves Thor (2011) the girls tease him now that he is obsessed. Needless to say I have seen Thor a couple of times, we now own the DVD.  It is a pretty good movie.  It has some really good one liners, such as "Do you want me to slow him down or would you rather send in more guys for him to beat up?" If you are anxiously awaiting The Avengers (2012) then you have to see Thor. It was fun, once again, to see how Shield is involved. There are some very cool graphics, of course. Asgard is very cool! Unfortunately they put so much time and money into making Asgard, Thor's home, so impressive that the rest of the movie is kind of lacking. Chris Hemsworth (A Perfect Getaway, Star Trek) does a good job but the whole time I just kept thinking “man I can’t wait to see him as the Huntsman in Snow White and the Huntsman (2012)”. I am anxiously awaiting that one as well. I really enjoyed Chris' performance as Thor, he was impressive. Tom Hiddleston (Conspiracy, Midnight in Paris, The Gathering Storm) plays Loki. Once again very cool and did a great job but I kept thinking “can’t wait to see him in Warhorse (2011)”.   Loki has an interesting character arch and it is kind of fascinating to watch his story unfold.  Tom portrayed it really well. 
      In conclusion I guess this was a sneak peek at some actors and some other movies that I am very excited to see.  I really did like Thor on its own though.  He was neat and it had a pretty good story line.  Not my favorite of the super hero movies but entertaining.  After all, he is the God of Thunder so ...... you know we should probably show some respect.
