Thor: Ragnarok is an ok... sci-fi comedy? by blackwater 11/09/2017, 10:16pm PST
The weirdest thing about this movie is the tone. Everything about it is played for laughs. Which is really weird for a movie about Ragnarok, aka the end of the world.
Spoiler (in black text): even when Asgard explodes, the scene is played for laughs!

The writers have a hard time taking the character of Thor seriously. Which I guess, makes sense. His backstory and powers aren't as interesting or relatable as the A-list superheros. I wish I could embed videos in this post of how many times Thor gets punked in this movie. (I would do it, except the copyright nazis would shut down my youtube links.) Thor gets tasered and goes down, like half a dozen times. He throws a giant ball at a wall and it bounces back and knocks him over, like in a Looney Tunes cartoon.
He gets trapped in a net and stomped on. Thor can't catch a break in this movie.

Much of the movie (half of it?) is spent in this weird subplot about a sci-fi garbage dump planet where Thor is forced to fight as a gladiator for an evil dictator played by Jeff Goldblum. Needless to say, Goldblum is having a ton of fun in this movie, and steals pretty much every scene he's in.

I guess this is worth watching, if you want to watch a comic book movie. It basically is a comedy?
