Thor 4: Love and Thunder (2022) review:
THE DOWNGRADE WE DIDN'T SEE COMING
review by: francis
I love Thor: Ragnarok so much. It's in my Top 10 favorite MCU movies and I was so excited about what Taika Waititi can offer next with Thor 4. Sadly, I didn't expect to be disappointed.
Christian Bale and his character Gorr are wasted, and under-utilized in the film. Literally one of the biggest things I was incredibly excited to see and ended up like that. Bale's performance was great, truly menacing and I think he's such perfect casting, but he was even barely in the movie and we didn't see him actually butcher a God. I also think his backstory was a little underdeveloped and turned into a joke.
The pacing was pretty weird. Can't even tell if it was bad or what.
My biggest issue, of course, just like everybody else is the amount of unnecessary and cringe humor. They were too much. It feels like a kid's movie and that final battle with the kids was honestly terrible. Thor: Ragnarok had a lot of humor too but they were done well at least.
As usual, Chris Hemsworth plays Thor well. He was great in the movie.
Nevertheless, the movie was still funny and enjoyable. The visuals were stunning and the soundtracks are lit. The action sequences especially in that black and white scene were cool. Jane Foster's Thor and Valkyrie were great in the movie as well. But unfortunately, it didn't live up to its hype. It is such a disappointment knowing Thor: Ragnarok was a masterpiece and it has the same director.
I’ll rate “Thor 4” a 3/5 👍
I don't know what to feel about MCU's Zeus. He was funny though. I'm also excited that Hercules is coming.
