Took the kids to see it tonight. I was looking forward to this one for a long time. Hulk and Thor together appealed to me.
I liked the movie and laughed a lot. It was very good, but not the best ever. Top superhero movies for me are Captain America 2, Deadpool, The Dark Night, GoG 1 and Captain America 3. I don’t think it was in that ballpark. It was just under them.
My grips (without giving away too much):
(1) The fight scenes were a little short. And not enough action
(2) There were no epic fight scenes and I was expecting a few
(3) A little too much comedy. Seemed forced at times
What worked:
(1) The new side characters: Korg and Miek. Esp Korg. Simply awesome additional. I hope they stick around.
(2) Valkyrie: Another awesome additional. Tessa Thompson nailed the role. Another great addition.
(3) Talking Hulk: Hulk was a scene stealer. Classic. This was his best role yet.
(4) Comedy: Yes it was a grip, but it was hilarious. I laughed hard through most of the movie.
(5) Great superhero cameo: I don’t want to give it away but they had a nice interaction btw Thor and a MCU superhero.
(6) No more Natalie Portman in the MCU. [emoji122]
(7) Great villains: Hela, Surtur & Grandmaster
(8) Not shy in killing characters. Hela earns the goddess of death title.
Definitely worth the price of admission, but not best as they critics say it is.
