Stop! Hammer time! Reckon plenty of "hammer" type puns have been used in the marketing of Thor. Watched it this afternoon and have to say, when I heard about Thor, my instant reaction was "I'll never watch that in a million years!"
But after reading a few reviews, it intrigued me with stories of father/son relationships, references to Shakespeare and Anthony Hopkins playing a God so I thought "Why not?"
Plus Natalie Portman is in it!
Even though it runs out of steam by the end, its actually quite a funny film when Thor is on Earth - the scene in the diner is brilliant when he wants another cup of coffee. Plus it sets up the whole Avengers thing with references to The Hulk, IronMan and a cameo by Hawkeye and a post-credit scene with Sammy Jay. With all these teasers basically each film setting up the ultimate Avengers film, Jess Wheldon certainly has a massive task not letting anyone down!!
Anyway, here's my quick review of Thor:
Natalie Portman's in it! But sadly, there's no getting it on with a hot girl like Black Swan.
Oh and Anthony Hopkins hams it up, Thor throws a hammer about a few times, Kenneth does his best LOTR impression with sweeping shots and massive battles and the Avengers film will be huuuuuuuge!
That is all...
