Thor: Love and Thunder

The film fails to meet the expectations of a great sequel. The Director is over reliant on unnecessary and childish humor. Christian Bale's character is underdeveloped for the most part. Zeus is a forgettable character in the movie. Thor does bring some fun to the movie but it does not help the film recover at any point. I would not rush to the Theaters for this sequel. O what a missed opportunity 👎.

*Thor: Love and Thunder* is a significant misstep in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. While it attempts to balance humor, action, and emotional depth, the film ultimately falls short in delivering a satisfying narrative.

Taika Waititi's signature comedic style, which was successful in *Ragnarok*, feels overused and forced in this installment. The film's tone is inconsistent, veering between slapstick humor and serious drama without finding a cohesive balance. The introduction of Jane Foster as Mighty Thor is a promising concept, but it is underutilized and feels rushed.

Christian Bale's portrayal of Gorr the God Butcher is wasted potential. The character is introduced as a formidable villain but is quickly reduced to a one-dimensional antagonist. The film's exploration of grief and loss is superficial, lacking the emotional depth necessary to resonate with the audience.

The action sequences, while visually impressive, lack the impact of previous Thor films. The plot is predictable, with several plot holes and inconsistencies. The film's overall message is unclear, leaving the audience feeling unsatisfied.

*Thor: Love and Thunder* is a disappointing entry in the MCU, squandering the potential of its premise and characters. It's a film that prioritizes humor over substance, resulting in a shallow and forgettable experience.

The ones who know a bit about norse mythology or at least have read some of Thor's comics know that he isn't just a jester guy with a hammer. Sadly in MCU Thor was only once really Thor and it was in Avengers: Infinity War, where we finally feel that he is the protector of Midgard and the God of thunder as in mythology. I'm not saying that Taika Waititi is a bad director, but the fact is he wrote and directed this empty movie with some jokes. He could maybe make a great Deadpool movie but Thor should have been more than this. Even Christian Bale's outstanding performance as Gorr couldn't save it. The real Thor fans aren't going to enjoy this movie.

Movie is okay. Christian Bale is awesome, Chris still can't act, but we never liked him for his talent, rest of the cast brings what they have to the whole movie is an average Disney factory work, everyone knows their job and they execute is as they should. The story has too many silly jokes. I know Waititi's style, but now he feels like his own parody. Like those Scream parody Scary Movies.

Fine seems to cover it, Disney has become fine, everything is fine. It has got to the point where if spending your time aimlessly going through your phone for 2+ hours or watching a marvel movie is a bigger waste of time.
