Thor: Ragnarok (2017)

Thor: Ragnarok is a film directed by Taika Waititi. The trailers that had come for the film excited me quite a bit for this venture. And somewhere in my heart, I felt that this was going to be the best Thor films. And after seeing the film, I can say in all happiness that it is.

Plot: Thor imprisoned in Sakaar must escape the place and save Asgard from the wrath of Hela.

Story and direction: Right from the very first shot of the film, you get the film will be an entertaining one. Thor, I guess was not utilized nicely in the previous 2 solo ventures, because of which many people didn't love the films. The first 2 films were OK but had nothing that made it special. But Taika Waititi takes all of what we know about Thor and gives his own kind of spin. This film is a fun filled ride from the start to the finish. But this film is just not about jokes. It has a wonderfully written story woven into it. The characterization is awesome in this film. And I can go on with the VFX of the film. The 3D just enhanced the fabulous and stunning VFX of the film. I liked the Game of Thrones reference in the film (the scene where actors enact scenes from the previous films). The score of the film was awesome too, It was soothing to listen to "The Immigrant Song". Given that at least 80% of this film was improvised (as Taika Waititi suggests), this is a great film. Because it takes only moments when improvisation just goes haywire. But this film is not all perfect. The faults I noticed were with the finale, where I could see how the film will end. And also the jokes. They say that too much of everything can be harmful. In the same way, I can say that the jokes at one point became little too much.

Performances: Chris Hemsworth was once again great as Thor. This film gave a whole new dimension to the character. Tom Hiddleston was again great as Loki. Anthony Hopkins was also good as Odin. Tessa Thompson was fabulous as Valkyrie. Hope to see her in future MCU ventures. Jeff Goldblum was amazing as the Grandmaster. It was always a delight to see him. Taika Waititi was good as Korg. Didn't know the director had this talent hidden under him. Idris Elba and Karl Urban were also great in their roles. Bruce Banner was very funny in the Hulk scenes especially. And finally, Cate Blanchett. She was one hell of a badass in the entire film. The viciousness was excellently portrayed by her.

Favorite Scene: I guess it would be during the final scenes, where Thor helpless says his father that he won't be able to defeat Hela because she is too strong. But then Odin says, that he is stronger than Odin himself. That scene impacted me a lot and said that people must never give up and believe that everything is possible if you put your mind to it.

Verdict: Thor: Ragnarok is certainly the best of the Thor trilogy. And it has opened up new dimensions in the MCU franchise. Just can't wait for the next MCU film, Infinity War. And yes, there is a mid and post credit scene.

I am going to go with an 8.5/10.

Yet another entertaining yet forgettable Thor film. Though the director has taken cues from GOTG to keep humor plenty and use references to enrich the storytelling, there is not much to offer in term of plot or characterization. To some extent, this is the first film in MCU to successfully WASTE Hulk and Loki both, which is not a small feat. It is a nice weekend caper if you want to have some good laugh, some cool action sequences and Hulk act like Shrek.

One of my favourite MCU films. Thor Ragnarok is easily one of the most entertaining films of the past decade, it is absolutely hilarious and the action sequences throughout the film are just phenomenal. The soundtrack is without a doubt the best in the MCU and the cast is fantastic. I loved all the characters and Hela is one of the best MCU villains and she is played to perfection by Cate Blanchette. The visual effects are outstanding and I love how colourful the film looks. This film just always puts the biggest smile on my face and I could probably watch it every day and never get bored of it.

Though silly dialogues in the first half look desperate to make you laugh. But later you realize that makers of the movie haven't taken the movie seriously (not in a bad way) and made an entertaining guilty pleasure. I had fun watching it and probably best Thor movie.

Thor Thor Thor!! Believe me or not Thor is the best Marvel hero because of this ability, presence of mind, confidence, looks. Some of the best scenes of this movies
1.Thor meet Dr. Strange
2. Thor lost hammer
3. Thor meet Hulk!!!
4. Hulk Thor Hemdail fought back for Asgard
And the most motivational Odin dialogue: If you are nothing without the hammer, it doesn't suit you.
Chris Hemsworth is really worthy in Thor's roll play. There are lots of witty scenes between superheroes and last but not least thing the animation, In this movie Marvel shows they are 1000 years advance then DC in animation.

Reengineering the Thor formula for the Marvel Universe. So they got this crazy weird director Taika Waititi from New Zealand. Who made this movie a 'Unabashed Love Letter’ to Jack Kirby(this term is being used to describe this movie based on the comic series it is based on). Chris Hemsworth was termed as a good comedy actor and this film proves it. all the actor's performances were amazing I mean they got Cate Freaking Blanchett. Taika Waititi playing cork steals every scene he is in. this is funniest MCU movie no doubt. loved it.

Marvel Movies are known for the complex character that it creates it starts with an internal fight of the protagonist and his trump over the inner self with the trump over the evil, it's always the character exploring his inner self his finding himself that's what makes MCU unique it's heroes are not perfect they are like us they have weakness and they are attacted over their wounds but it's how they move up how they upgrade are what make these stories awesome they teach us so much , for those who watched the trailer the attraction was the breaking of Mjolnir the mighty unbreakable mjolnir broken it peaces within few seconds this is Thor's journey of finding his power and knowing his true identity beyond the Mjolnir
