Thor

Standard

First, I must say that I am a girl who loves super hero movies. Genuinely, they’re not half bad. Depending on which comic book they’re portraying, I think most of the heroes and villains are accurate toward the comics.

Today, however, I am saddened by the portrayal of Thor. Everyone knows the story of the God of Thunder…except in this movie, he’s a “jock” type. The kind no one wants to even like in a movie or in real life. He’s pompous, arrogant, and just selfish. No wonder his father sends him hurtling to earth as banishment. I would have done it earlier if only to teach him a lesson.

Then the fact that a woman of all people is what teaches him what to be a man is really like. Ugh. Yes, it is a movie and I’m slightly confusing reality with fiction but this is just unconventional.

Besides that Thor was only on earth for 2 DAYS and he learned his lesson in that amount of time is just beyond ridiculous.

I’m sorry, I’m being rather cruel towards this movie, but I couldn’t stand it. Also the fact that all the girls loved Thor and said that I would too.
