Slightly better than average for a big-budget superhero movie, especially considering Thor is positively B-list among the comic pantheon. Not bad CGI action, watchable faux-Shakespearean Asgard scenes (directed by Kenneth Branagh no less), but the movie falls apart when the action is on Earth. You’re supposed to buy that Thor (Australian newcomer Chris Hemsworth) learns humility and falls in love with a mortal (Natalie Portman), but it just doesn’t seem as believable as even the sci fantasy scenes of the Norse gods come to life.
