Thor Ragnarok

Thor has always been presented with a degree of daft humour. The first movie built in several hubris-busting moments where he would make absurd declarations and get cut short or put in his place while trying to earn back his hammer and his father's respect. The second had the very amusing and pomposity busting presence of Jane Foster's team, and a rarely-better Loki. After the slightly grim style and rather dull bad guys of Thor - The Dark World', 'Ragnarok' pushes things to a whole new level. Waititi brings us a genuine Action-comedy. Don't be scared by that, because although I was a little anxious about what to expect, he has a deft hand at blending violence with comedy, and serious notes abound among the levity. The story is fairly simple: Thor returns from the chaotic nine realms to realism something is amiss at home, and an ensuing major plot development (that I won't spoil) then unleashes Hela, the Goddess of Death upon Asgard. Kate Blanchett revels in the camp villainy of the role, dripping theatrical menace and bad-girl style as she tries to seize Asgard against a torrent of resistance. Meanwhile Thor and Loki end up trapped on another world, with Thor facing gladiatorial games reminiscent of ancient Rome at the hands of Jeff Goldblum's quirky 'Grandmaster'. Here, in this blazingly colourful, 80's hued setting, the film enters comedy territory even further with a wealth of brilliantly memorable characters too numerous to list. Suffice it to say that Thor's adventures here hold the interest just as well as the rest of the movie, and we get emotional moments, heroic moments and brilliant fights, as well as some character-advancing scenes. The comedy is fast, brilliant and often a little lewd, and is intercut with visually astonishing battles and epic moments. All of the characters get the kind of hero-strut moments that send a tingle down your spine, and Waititi proves talented at sneaking in emotional character development amidst action and humour with a deft hand. Some folks may struggle with just how excessive and humorous the film becomes, but it amply rewards viewers who relax into its craziness and enjoy the ride. Breathtaking, retina-scorchingly beautiful (that 'heavenly' battle image!!!), mind-bogglingly inventive with its visuals and approach, you may not see another sequel this brave and exotic for the rest of the decade. The years must-have purchase.

Best of all the Thor films.

Great comedic version of Thor although there were some funny scenes in the first Thor released in 2011 which I really enjoyed watching. and also the second Thor. The dark world Still always prefer the first Thor But all are worth 5 stars and highly recommend watching

Another movie from Marvel comics. Third to feature the Mighty Thor. As usual, familiarity with other Marvel movies that have gone before is a must in order to get into this film. Although you doubtless have that if you're reading this and have watched or will watch it. Following on from the events of 'Avengers; age of Ultron.' and 'Thor: the dark world' Thor has gone off on his own to do things, and there have been changes in Asgard in his absence. A homecoming brings a few surprises, revelations, and an ancient evil is unleashed. Asgard is seemingly doomed unless Thor can save the day. Too bad he's stranded on a dangerous alien world where people are forced to fight in gladiator contests. Fortunately, unlikely allies await... This manages to pretty much bring this trilogy of Thor movies to a close. And leave the door open for the character to do more as well. There are big revelations and changes and set pieces. But first and foremost, it's fun. The director brings a great and entertaining tone to the movie of light character comedy, and all the cast prove very adept at doing this. For a piece of fun escapist watching, it's utterly brilliant. As a movie its just not quite five stars because in between all this fun comedy, you do get the end of the world stuff, which despite being done as well just ends up being a bit of a distraction from all the fun that's going on elsewhere. Yet the bit set piece ending is pretty rousing stuff, with a great score, allowing for some good character moments and strong character arcs to get good resolutions as well. It's a film that sets out to entertain first and foremost. And it succeeds at doing that. So it's a great watch. The dvd has the following language and subtitle options: Languages: English, Italian, English audio described. Subtitles: English, Danish, Finnish, Icelandic, Italian, Norwegian, Swedish. It begins with a generic artistic trailer for marvel films.,Then a movie trailer. Then a video game one. All these can be skipped via the next button on the dvd remote. You can see the movie and video game trailers in the sneak peeks section of the dvd anyhow. But you won't see any extras, because the dvd has none whatsoever.

Love this movie .and prompt delivery..

Quite enjoyable film, even the Incredible Hulk turns up. If you're into these super hero films, definitely recommend.

It was cheap for a new dvd. Came on the said date by company well worth the money.

Me and my mum are massive fans of these Marvel films - We particularly enjoy the Thor series: Loved this one so much - epic action, hilarious, brilliantly fun film that had us cracking up with laughter all the way through, and long afterwards too!!! The banter between Thor and Loki is just brilliant - they talk and argue like true brothers, their interaction is so fun to watch - we enjoy the times when Loki is on the good side, fighting alongside Thor and the others, rather than against him! Every one of the actors play their roles perfectly - Cate Blanchett is superb in her portrayal of the vengeful Goddess Of Death, Hela, who has....a little bit of a grudge! There is a powerful show of special-effects in one particular fight scene - Hulk goes up against Hela's huge, imposing war-wolf Fenris!!! It's just an amazingly funny, action-packed, feel-good adventure of a film - we loved every moment, especially this latest instalment to the series These are films that truly deserve more acclaim, and more awards than they get - genuinely fantastic entertainment, and a pure joy to watch!!! 💚 Tom Hiddleston 💚

Due doverose premesse: 1) è un film che strizza assolutamente l'occhio a chi ha seguito la saga del decennio avengers, ci sono tanti incastri, tanto riferimento e tante storie che danno per scontato che noi già conosciamo. E' un film molto interessante e godibile, ma per chi non ha visto altri film di questo filone cinecomics, o almeno i primi due thor (soprattutto per il rapporto loki thor e thor hulk) non è apprezzabile in pieno. 2) E' un film strano (la mano di taika waititi è evidentissima) tanto che appena visto, l'ho bollato come schifezza, l'ho definito addirittura infantile e che copiava inutilmente la comicità di Guardiani della Galassia, solo che fuori contesto, Thor non è Starlord e Loki non è rocket... e invece no, mi sbagliavo. L'ho rivisto, ho cambiato la mia chiave di lettura e devo dire che è un signor film. Perchè? semplice, perchè Taika Waititi ha fatto una cosa che nessuno prima d'ora era riuscito a fare con un supereroe come Thor, che, ricordiamoci, è un Dio. E come fa un Dio a piacere allo spettatore? come fa un essere così superiore a essere preso come modello e far immedesimare lo spettatore? ebbene qui si riesce, qui il Dio cade, il dio perde il lungo capello biondo, il dio perde un occhio, il dio fallisce il dio diventa umano per tantissimi aspetti, ecco che il dio diventa empatico per lo spettatore (per capirci, cosa che continua a non riuscire con superman. Davvero un gran film. Detto questo, che lascia il tempo che trova perchè non sono un critico e nemmeno un esperto di cinema, ma solo un appassionato, per cui è un parere assolutamente soggettivo, parliamo dello Steelbook. Bello, davvero bello. Prima di tutto, per fortuna, continua la scelta di non cambiare la costina, seppur io ci preferisco il titolo del film, la scelta di metterci i volti dei personaggi protagonisti gli da quanto meno un senso di continuità, lo apprezzo, perchè io li voglio tutti in fila e in collezione, per cui l'aspetto grafico è importante. Inoltre anche l'intera scelta di colori, dal rosso acceso della copertina, col dio battaglier, fino al retro dai toni piu' variopinti, risulta molto gradevole. Davvero un bel pezzo di collezione.

La película llegó muy bien en la fecha prometida, tiene audio en inglés, francés, español y portugués así como subtitulos en los mismos idiomas antes mencionado. La recomiendo ampliamente.

Très bien. Très bon film
