Thor

Kenneth Branagh me decepcionó. Lo consideraba una garantía de calidad, pero esto probablemente se aplica solo a las adaptaciones de Shakespeare y temas históricos. Aún no puedo evaluar a Walander, no lo he visto ni he leído nada acerca de él. Vi Thor al menos cinco veces, me quedé dormido tres veces. Me decepcionó principalmente el mundo fantástico, me pareció extremadamente artificial y literalmente feo. Toda la historia es lenta, escenas de acción difíciles de encontrar para el espectador. Lo que más me gustó fue el martillo de Thor, me gustaría poseerlo al menos por una hora. La secuela parece más interesante al menos según los avances, veré si encuentro tiempo para verla.

After embarrassing trailers and 3D conversion, I avoided watching Thor in the movie theater. Now, in retrospect, I feel that was a mistake because Branagh has delivered a terrific comic book movie that bucks the fashionable trend of machine psychoanalyses of the heroic mind, and instead has a sympathetic man land on Earth who tackles everything with a disarming combination of unearthly naivety and muscularity. The characters are as flat as ever, but the actors are excellent, it moves along nicely, and it's full of humor (or Asgard) and proper pomposity. A sequel, please! (29.08.2011)

It’s clear to me now why a Shakespeare filmmaker like Kenneth Branagh went for this. All the scenes from Asgard seem like great theatre, with interesting characters, great fatality, betrayal, envy and jealousy. Asgard, with its megalomaniacal architecture and all its pomposity, was the most entertaining part, and the episode from Earth, thanks to the good actors, was also enjoyable, although I can't shake the impression that more unintentional humour could have been extracted from "Thor wondering among men like a bull in a china shop". Chris Hemsworth is likeable in every way, Hopkins finally after a long time in a role that suits him best; these classy characters, that's his thing. Overall an enjoyable 2 hours and I wouldn't mind a sequel. (08.05.2011)

Thor liked me. I liked how the creators combined reality with Asgard, how they placed Thor in reality, how they made fun of everything. It was nice to watch in the context of fantasy, which I will never stop enjoying watching. They show a world that I can't even dream properly. And the creators are able to beautifully translate their fantasy into reality. Asgard was really beautifully created. Hats off to the creators for embarking on something like this, and I'm glad they want to make a much more epic story in the future and not just stop at one part. It's not quite a five-star review, but that's probably just because it feels like the creators made Men in Black with a different story. Or an interesting idea cut into jokes and with great actors. Those Men in Black back then were something I couldn't imagine as a child at all. Magnificent Sci-Fi/Fantasy and a comedy on top of that. Thor follows the same line and I enjoy it. Don't I? But there are other pieces that deserve five stars. Anyway, I'm glad such movies are being made. A person then enjoys an unusual story, comfort, pleasantness, and great actors, who are great to watch because they either play completely ordinary people or extraordinary gods. (13.06.2012)

I didn’t believe in it, even after the overall satisfied responses, but this is surprisingly pretty good. Half of the story takes place on earth, the other half in Asgard, Thor’s home planet, which looks quite gorgeous, even if you can see the lack budget a little. But I liked the scenes on earth a bit more, they are filled with pleasant light-hearted humour, especially at the beginning. By the end, unfortunately, things get awfully serious and there isn’t even a hint of humour. But it’s still pretty nice and fun to watch. The biggest surprise for me, however, is that the blond and thunderous Hemsworth is a pretty good actor… (28.08.2011)
