Not only is Thor: Ragnarok the best Thor movie yet, it's quite
possibly my favorite entry in the MCU. Definitely in my Top 3. I
think Spider-Man Homecoming

/>is still my all time fave, but Ragnarok is right up there as
pure entertainment from start to finish. This is really unlike
anything I've seen from any of the other MCU flicks as far as
visual style and tone. Stylistically this felt like a movie that
was inspired and came direct from all things 80's with its color
scheme which I absolutely love. But it was the tone that kind of
threw me for a loop. They were really pushing the jokes
here....HARD. There was no two ways about it. They were going
for laugh out loud moments and they succeeded in Spades. It's
not a typical "comedy" that you would expect....but it sure felt
like one. There were so many jokes that it was hard to keep up
with. This is a movie worth going back for repeat viewings just
to get all the things I know I missed the first time around.
Chris Hemsworth is his cool self as Thor and was damn funny. But
it was the addition of other characters that really made me take
notice. Jeff Goldbum as Grandmaster was vintage Goldblum. Tessa
Thompson as Scrapper was a nice addition as well. But Cate
Blanchett as Hela is possibly the best Villain ever in the MCU.
Yes, she gets "destroyed" at the end. But I fully expect her to
pop back up down the road in the future. This is Comics after
all. And daaaaamn does Cate look smoking HOT!! But the star of
the movie is of course The Hulk. Getting a Hulk that actually
carries on conversations in full is what I have been waiting for
for years and it delivers in a BIG way. Second best character in
the movie is without a doubt Korg. A beast....with a voice like
that was and is f*cking priceless!! Highly recommend this as a
Buy.
