We have not seen and grabbed a review from someone who saw it early - Thor opens on Thursday, Nov.7th at 8:00pm. Marvel goes fantasy. Thors return under Game of Thrones-director Alan Taylors command starts out as what looks like a new adventure from Middle Earth. What connects it with the smash hit Avengers is the characters we learned to love. Its a pleasure to see Hiddleston and Hemsworth clash once again as unlikely brothers with so much history, built up by the former films and now giving this franchise its own lore. In a film with a villains plot that may not always make sense (but at least makes for a wonderfully messy and fun showdown) and in which the bad guy has little depth, it helps a lot that all other characters work so well and their interactions are great fun. While Thors Asgardian companions remain a tad underused, its Kate Dennings who pretty much steals every scene set on Earth. Asgard, on the other hand, looks greater and offers more details than before. Thankfully the film works on both ends of the scale because between all the family drama and tragic deaths, it never takes itself too seriously and may very well be the funniest Marvel film that doesnt include Downey Jr. shooting off his mouth.
