The reckless Thor (Chris Hemsworth) son of Odin (Anthony Hopkins), challenges his brother's claim to the throne of Asgard. To teach him humility , Odin casts the young warrior down to Earth to live among humans. Robbed of his powers, Thor falls in love with a scientist Jane Foster (Natalie Portman). While Thor's brother; Loki usurps the throne of Asgard for evil gain and plans revenge, Thor's love for Jane and his lessons of humility turn him into the true hero and legendary and immortal warrior-defender of the peoples of the Earth saving them from destruction. A war is waged between the frost giants and Thor's homeland. Loki fights for his right to the throne. Thor is cast out of Asgard by his father and sent to earth as punishment for his arrogance and disobedience in his battle. He loses his powers of the hammer until it returned to him on earth and he pulls it from the ground. In his fight for his own freedom on earth he meets a scientist; Jane Foster and has an affair with her. Thor then battles the evil forces of his brother Loki along with a robotic giant destroyer that attacks a town. I have to admit, I only became interested in seeing Thor because of The Avengers. I remember sitting in the theater thinking "that Thor guy is kind of hot." Well, after the movie was over, I knew that I had to see Thor and learn more about the leading actor.<br/><br/>In Thor, the God of Thunder is set to inherit the throne from his father when the castle is attacked by the Frost Giants. In retaliation, Thor and his brother travel to their realm and a fight breaks out. Lives are lost on both sides. As punishment for his actions, Thor's father Odin strips the future king of his title and all honors bestowed on him. He then banishes Thor to Earth.<br/><br/>Thor is now mortal, wandering around Earth but still thinking he is a god. He befriends Jane Foster; a beautiful scientist who is immediately attracted to him. Thor gets into some trouble, but always makes sure to place Jane out of harm's way. When Thor's mischievous brother Loki assumes the throne and lies to Thor about their father's death, Thor sacrifices himself to keep Jane safe during a showdown. This heroic act brings his powers back and Thor returns to Asgard to battle his brother.<br/><br/>Chris Hemsworth stars in the title role. Did I say he was "kind of" hot? My mistake. He's incredibly hot. Not only did I enjoy the visual of him, I enjoyed his portrayal of Thor as well. Hemsworth shines as the God of Thunder. He plays him arrogant, self-obsessive and rude then he changes. We see Thor become sweet and understand that simply killing an entire race just because you want to is wrong. This is brilliantly done as Hemsworth makes Thor likable. <br/><br/>Jane is portrayed by Oscar winner Natalie Portman. Jane is the reason why Thor cares for Earth; he believes there is good on the planet and swears to protect it. Portman shows much emotion as Jane, such as when she thinks Thor has died or when chasing satellites and other scientific things. While her emotions are there, Portman herself has little to do throughout the movie besides running around and drooling over Thor's body. <br/><br/>Tom Hiddleston is Loki, the God of Mischief. One thing that I liked about Hiddleston's portrayal is that he makes Loki sympathetic. I could tell that Loki really did care for his family and wanted his father's approval; he just went about it the wrong way. Hiddleston's descent into madness is brilliantly subtle. You see his change when he realizes he's adopted, then when he takes the throne, then drunk with power. You see even more of that descent into madness in The Avengers. And while he fights his brother, I believed that he would lay his weapon down if Thor would have treated him as his equal. Hiddleston was one of my favorites of this film.<br/><br/>Sir Anthony Hopkins plays the King of Asgard, Odin. This supporting part should have been bigger, but he spends half of it in "Odin sleep." However, if he hadn't been in this, Loki would have had no reason to assume the throne. Hopkins is great at trying to convince Loki that he loves him, even though Loki refuses to believe it. And I liked when Odin snapped Thor's ego back into place when he banishes him to Earth.<br/><br/>Darcy Lewis is played by Kat Dennings. While I have no problem with Dennings, I thought Darcy was completely pointless in the film. Her character was a bit annoying and did not move the plot at all. Had Darcy been eliminated, the story would have continued on. She was not a vital part.<br/><br/>The effects in this movie are alone enough of a reason to see it. Practically all of Asgard is computer generated and the Rainbow Bridge is phenomenal. I especially enjoyed the battle between Thor and Loki, seeing the different effects used with the scepter and the hammer and the effect to create multiple Lokis. Another great graphic is the castle itself; it made me believe that gods really lived there.<br/><br/>Thor is not a great movie; it will not win any Oscars. However, it was fun to watch and a great introduction to a character that gets screen time in The Avengers. I have heard that a sequel to Thor is in the works. I hope that the major characters return, but most especially Loki. He deserves another chance to shine. First of all i am not a Thor's fan,so i expected the movie to be bad(without good reason basically)…When i watched the trailer i decided to watch the movie…It turns out that Thor is one of the best Marvel Movies in the last years!!It's a mix of fairytale(Asgard,Gods etc.) and super heroic story.The movie has the right doses of humor and it wasn't destroyed by some uncontrolled action(that's what happened in Ironman 2, if you ask me)…As for the actors i really enjoyed seeing Tom Hiddleston as Loki and i am looking forwards to see him again in Avengers…The only thing i disliked was the appearance of Hawkeye(completely useless for the whole story).In overall,i believe Thor is great if you want to see a super heroic movie and have fun… 8 stars from me… Unfortunately, the committee-designed script never finds a consistent balance between building characters, delivering action and pushing the story forward. Exiled by his father Odin (<a href="/name/nm0000164/">Anthony Hopkins</a>) for his arrogance and desire to drag Asgard into a war with the frost giants of Jötunheim, crown prince Thor (<a href="/name/nm1165110/">Chris Hemsworth</a>) is banished to Earth to live amongst humans. Aided by three astronomers—Jane Foster (<a href="/name/nm0000204/">Natalie Portman</a>), Erik Selvig (<a href="/name/nm0001745/">Stellan Skarsgård</a>), and Darcy Lewis (<a href="/name/nm0993507/">Kat Dennings</a>)—Thor searches for his hammer and the right to bear Mjolnir as a worthy successor to the throne. Unknown to Thor, however, this entire scenario was spearheaded by his trickster brother Loki (<a href="/name/nm1089991/">Tom Hiddleston</a>), who aspires to the crown while Thor is banished and Odin lies deep in sleep. Thor is based on a character created by comic book writers, artists, and editors Stan Lee, Larry Lieber, and Jack Kirby. He debuted in the August 1962 issue of Journey Into Mystery (#83). Thor, the film, is the fourth movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and is the first to feature Thor as a starring character. It is followed by <a href="/title/tt1981115/">Thor: The Dark World (2013)</a> (2013) and <a href="/title/tt3501632/">Thor: Ragnarok (2017)</a> (2017). Marvel's Thor also appears in <a href="/title/tt0848228/">The Avengers (2012)</a> (2012) and <a href="/title/tt2395427/">Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015)</a> (2015). Only some of them. All cinematic material made under the Marvel Studios banner, e.g., , <a href="/title/tt0800080/">The Incredible Hulk (2008)</a> (2008), Thor (2011) and(2011), are all set in the same universe (known as the Marvel Cinematic Universe), with the characters crossing over (most notably SHIELD personnel—Fury, Coulson, Romanoff or Barton), culminating in <a href="/title/tt0848228/">The Avengers (2012)</a> (2012) which ties these films together. Marvel Studios also owns/owned The Punisher and Blade, however <a href="/title/tt0330793/">The Punisher (2004)</a> (2004), <a href="/title/tt0450314/">Punisher: War Zone (2008)</a> (2008), <a href="/title/tt0120611/">Blade (1998)</a> (1998), <a href="/title/tt0187738/">Blade II (2002)</a> (2002) and <a href="/title/tt0359013/">Blade: Trinity (2004)</a> (2004) are/were not in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Other Marvel-based films owned by other studios are not set in the MCU, due to differing ownership. This includes, for example: <a href="/title/tt0145487/">Spider-Man (2002)</a> (2002) and <a href="/title/tt0259324/">Ghost Rider (2007)</a> (2007) (both owned by Sony); <a href="/title/tt0120903/">X-Men (2000)</a> (2000), <a href="/title/tt0120667/">Fantastic Four (2005)</a> (2005), and <a href="/title/tt0287978/">Daredevil (2003)</a> (2003) (all owned by Fox). SHIELD Director Nick Fury (<a href="/name/nm0000168/">Samuel L. Jackson</a>), has a cameo in the scene after the credits, similar to his appearance in <a href="/title/tt0371746/">Iron Man (2008)</a> (2008). In this scene he shows Erik the Cosmic Cube, foreshadowing events in <a href="/title/tt0458339/">Captain America: The First Avenger (2011)</a> (2011), much like the scene in <a href="/title/tt1228705/">Iron Man 2 (2010)</a> did for Thor. SHIELD Agent Phil Coulson, who was introduced in the Iron Man films, plays a considerably larger role in this film as the person in charge of studying Thor's hammer. Clint Barton (<a href="/name/nm0719637/">Jeremy Renner</a>), a.k.a. Hawkeye, appears as one of the SHIELD agents trying to stop Thor from getting his hammer back. The big, muscular black agent who briefly fights with Thor in this scene has also been acknowledged by fans as Luke Cage (though he may not be). All of these characters (except the supposed Cage) appear in <a href="/title/tt0848228/">The Avengers (2012)</a> (2012). (1) Erik tells Jane and Darcy of a fellow scientist he once knew who studied gamma rays and who came into contact by SHIELD who then went missing shortly afterwards. As this movie is a setup for The Avengers, he is like referring to Bruce Banner, the Hulk, although it could be Hank Pym or Betty Ross but neither of them are in The Avengers movie. Also, both Erik and Banner will be in The Avengers movie and so could have a "reunion" scene. (2) The special SHIELD agent at the crater site with the compound-bow 'n' arrow who has Thor in his sights is Clint Barton, a.k.a Hawkeye. (3) The big, strongly-built black agent who fights with Thor in the scene previously mentioned could be Luke Cage, or a reference to this character. (4) When the Destroyer first appears and is surrounded by the SHIELD agents, one SHIELD agent asks Agent Coulson, "Is that one of Stark's?", to which he replies, "I dunno. That guy never tells me anything." They are of course referring to Tony Stark, a.k.a. Iron Man. (5) Nick Fury appears in the post-credits sequence. Clint "Hawkeye" Barton (<a href="/name/nm0719637/">Jeremy Renner</a>) joins the Avengers in <a href="/title/tt0848228/">The Avengers (2012)</a> (2012). Asking for Jane's forgiveness, Thor uses Mjolnir to destroy the Bifrost Bridge in order to close the portal between the worlds and keep Loki from destroying Jötunheim. The bridge begins to crumble, causing Thor and Loki to fall off. But Odin, having awakened from his sleep, manages to grab hold of Thor's leg, and Thor grabs onto Loki's staff. As the brothers hang there, Loki tries to assure Odin that he could have been successful, but Odin says, "No." Dismayed by Odin's disapproval, Loki releases his hold on the staff and allows himself to fall into the abyss. Some days later, while the castle feasts, Sif () asks Frigga (<a href="/name/nm0000623/">Rene Russo</a>) how Thor is doing, and the Queen replies that he mourns for his brother and misses the mortal woman. Meanwhile in New Mexico, Jane, Erik, and Darcy notice that the portal's gateway has disappeared. Thor admits to his father that he has a lot to learn but hopes that someday he will make Odin proud. Odin puts his hand on Thor's shoulder and replies, "You've already made me proud." In the final scene, Thor and Heimdall (<a href="/name/nm0252961/">Idris Elba</a>) stand on the Asgardian side of the broken bridge. Thor bemoans that Earth is lost to them, but Heimdall replies, "No, there is always hope," and reveals that Jane is working in her lab and searching for him. Following the credits is a short scene, a lead-in to The Avengers. Erik meets with SHIELD Director Nick Fury (<a href="/name/nm0000168/">Samuel L. Jackson</a>), who shows him briefcase containing a device that he says could be a source of unlimited power. Loki's reflection suddenly appears in a nearby mirror, and he whispers to himself, "Well, I guess that's worth a look." Erik says the same thing to Nick Fury. Stan Lee does make a short cameo in the film. He is a truck driver at the crater where Mjolnir landed. In the Marvel Universe, Asgard is actually another dimension with extensive lands and continents reaching well beyond Valhalla. In the comics there have been Asgardians with East Asian features so the idea of one with black features isn't as outrageous, since it's only one of multiple races among humans and Asgardians. The Vikings worshiped the Asgardians as gods due to their fantastic powers, though they are not gods, simply a race of incredibly powerful beings. The character Darcy points this out in the film. The reason such characters may have been interpreted as all being Caucasian is because the Vikings may have assumed they all were, or the stories changed them to resemble Norseman as the stories passed through history. a5c7b9f00b The Greater of Two Evils sub downloadLas Aparicio full movie 720p downloadEpisode 2.5 hd mp4 downloadDownload First Timers full movie in hindi dubbed in Mp4Mystery in Swing movie in hindi hd free downloadTaleSpin download movie freeRobot Lovestory full movie hd 1080p download kickass movieAkad Suzunosuke: Shingetsu-to no y ki in hindi free downloadThe Loud House in hindi download free in torrentDownload the Instead of Abracadabra full movie tamil dubbed in torrent
