It shuns the traditional Norse
God story in favour of the Marvel Universe, as Thor falls in love with Jane
rather than Lady Sif. Chris Hemsworth looks a little young in this film, but
then again this is the first outing for the thunder God. Despite Thor’s powers,
the feats in this film doesn’t seem that heroic, and perhaps it should be
entitled How Thor Got his Groove Back.
Perhaps we should have seen a few smaller plotlines of Thor stopping school
buses from falling off a cliff, or catching a plane in an urban area. I would
have also liked to have seen more interactive humour when Thor tries to take command
of people of Earth; especially with a Shakespearian director; who I thought
would have stayed more loyal to the historical theme. Thor’s dominance is a lot
more present in the sequels, but they are directed by other people. But then
again, don’t we all need our groove back? Where’s my Mjoinir?
