Film: Thor: The Dark World

Released:Nov. 8

Studio: Marvel Studios

Grade: B

With the Bifrost destroyed, the nine realms have fallen into chaos, and it falls on the Mighty Avenger to restore the peace he is sworn to uphold.

Thor: The Dark World picks up where Thor and The Avengers left off; Loki (Tom Hiddleston,Out of Darkness) is being brought back to Asgard to pay for his crimes, and Thor (Chris Hemsworth, Rush) is battling to save the realms from falling further into chaos.

As peace is restored, an ancient enemy named Malekith (Christopher Eccleston,Emily) reawakens and threatens to plunge the nine realms into total darkness, which he attempted to do many millennia before – until Thor’s grandfather stopped him.

Pitted against an enemy that neither Odin nor Asgard can withstand, Thor must risk everything to stop the dark elf before the universe is extinguished.

Generic plot aside, Thor: The Dark World, directed by Alan Taylor (Game of Thrones), is everything that fans of Marvel’s movie universe have come to expect and builds upon the enjoyable foundation of the first Thor film.

Thor was packed with whit, humor, charm and action, but between the mythological and fantastical was a film filled with family drama and memorable characters. The Dark World is no different.

From the large battles at the film’s onset to the climactic clash between Thor and Malekith at the film’s conclusion, The Dark World is packed with action from start to finish.

Between armor-clad warriors and dark elves whose weaponry seems out of this world, even by Asgardian standards, action in The Dark World is as enjoyable as it is fantastical.

Though the film’s many battles aren’t anything viewers familiar with science fiction haven’t seen before, they remain pleasant to watch and continue to develop the fantastical world of Thor and Marvel’s universes.

When it isn’t an action movie or suffering from some pacing and plot issues, the film has some truly phenomenal moments that exceed Thor in their emotional weight and ability to draw the viewer inward, all of which are carried to new heights and depth by the film’s exceptional cast.

After a sluggish start, a majority of the film is spent further exploring Thor and Loki, revealing aspects of the characters that viewers have never seen before.

In the past, Thor was overconfident and arrogant, nearly starting a war to put the frost giants back in their place, but this film finds the character at ends with the kingly position he has always wanted. Realizing there are limits to what a king can do, Thor’s conviction and determination drives the character as he deals with the difference between what he wants and what is expected of him.

In the presence of Jane Foster, (Natalie Portman, Illusions and Mirrors) who emotionally and romantically ties Thor to Earth, Thor becomes a much more emotionally nuanced character, furthering the range that viewers have already seen from the character in Thor and The Avengers.

Loki, however, is just as mischievous as ever, still hungry for power and waiting for his chance to sit on the thrown. But The Dark World takes the character to an unprecedented emotional low; seeing a disheveled Loki on the floor of his destroyed cell is one of the many moments in which Hiddleston truly shines, bringing a depth and nuance to the character that is exacting and captivating.

While your eyes may glaze over during the introduction that delves into the world of dark elves and ancient battles between pagan deities, there's good reason to stay awake for this goofy, explosive and oddly warm-hearted yarn that knits a cold story of family dysfunction with matinee spectacle. Granted, the opening scene looks more like a dreary return to the bloated digital tableaus of Peter Jackson as it sets up the big dilemma via an epic battle between elves and Asgardians, but don't let all the ginger beards and creepy fantasy face masks put you off.

There's a weapon of mass destruction called the Aether - a sickly red cloud that permeates the flesh and infuses it with special power, and whoever possesses this special poison can win any war, or conquer any world, which is why Thor's grandfather hid the weapon in a world far, far away.

Yet, for some mysterious reason, the Aether is stirring and it's wreaking havoc on Earth.

Holes in the time-space continuum are beginning to appear, which pulls us back into familiar territory when we're reintroduced to Thor (Chris Hemsworth) - the hammer-wielding hero with big muscles and a villainous little brother Loki (Tom Hiddleston).

Thor and his father Odin (Anthony Hopkins) know they have to intercede to make sure the Aether doesn't end up in the wrong hands, but there's an evil elf standing in their way, not to mention the vengeanceobsessed Loki, Thor's perpetually jealous adopted sibling.

The rivalry between the two sons is solid Shakespearean content and thanks to Hopkins, who turns Odin into a Marvel-inspired version of King Lear, every golden thread of classical sentiment reaches the 3D frame intact.

Ironically, comic book adaptations desperately need this heavy, serious, weight of the world content to work. Without it, they simply float away on a raft of insanity and resemble psychotic hallucinations - or in this case, a page from the Ikea catalogue.

Comic book heroes need to take themselves deathly seriously, and even with that incessant sparkle in his sea blue eyes, Hemsworth is every bit as earnest as he needs to be as he reprises his hammer for a third whack at Thor.

The actor is clearly comfortable in the part at this point, and he's able to give the big galoot some charming details in this go-round. One of the sweeter moments comes when Thor is back on Earth and reunited with his true love, Jane Foster (Natalie Portman) - a physicist looking into the anomalies surrounding the Aether.

He walks into an apartment, and after a moment of hesitation, hangs his beloved Mjolnir (the hammer) on a coat hook.

The moment is fleeting and completely goofy, but it does more than bring a second of humour to the mix.

It highlights the difference in scale between human beings and the gods, and how

we often get lost in the blur of pettiness instead of focusing on the big picture.

As human beings, we live short little existences that seem important to us, but are inconsequential to the gods. Gods don't understand our puny and pathetic motives, but in that one gesture, Thor suggests he's trying to respect the human scale.

After all, he's in love with a human woman, and if he can whittle his manly mettle down to size, he may be able to consummate his love for the fair lady.

Portman proves surprisingly plucky as the intrepid doctor. The Black Swan star shelves the high drama but keeps the high cheekbones as she squares off against several supernatural enemies. She even manages to host the

Aether inside her body, ensuring we get just enough shots of Portman writhing in space to keep the fanboys happy.

Combined with another standout comic performance from Kat Dennings as Portman's sidekick, Stellan Skarsgård as a genius scientist sans trousers and Idris Elba as the otherworldly guardian of Asgard in yellow contacts, and everything about this new Thor movie falls together quite nicely.

Yet, the jewel in the whole Thor franchise is Loki, the bruised and beaten god who just wants to get his turn on the throne. Thanks to Hiddleston's depth, we get all the oily darkness required for a successful turn as a powermonger with a thirst for payback.

In one creepy roll of his

baleful eyes, Loki erases all the Dudley Do-Right dullness of Thor and pushes him to the edge of his envelope.

For a superhero movie to tackle the concept of personal integrity is almost revolutionary because it's the one thing we don't question. We aren't taught to doubt Superman's goodness or Captain America's patriotic commitment, they are inherent to their identity.

Thor's director Alan Taylor (Game of Thrones) understood we need more than digital spectacle and 3D effects to keep us interested. We need drama based in human conflict and emotional jealousy to really bang the gong, and thanks to Mjolnir and his manly master, this movie gets hammered in all the right ways. source: "http://www.ottawacitizen.com/entertainment/movie-guide/Movie+review+Thor+Dark+World+with+video/9141377/story.html"

The Shakespearan feud between two brothers vying for their father’s attention having been addressed in Thor, the sequel gets down to the business of dazzling the 3D and IMAX crowds. Every element of Thor: The Dark World, from the scale of the action and the sophistication of the visual effects to the production design and costumes, appears to have been designed for a giant IMAX screen (parts of the movie have been shot with IMAX cameras). The rapid-fire action and constant movement between Thor’s realm above the clouds and the mortal world below combine to deliver a visual spectacle that compensates for the disinterest in characterisation and emotions.

The first movie, directed by Kenneth Branagh, enlivened a routine good-versus-evil yarn by exploring the tensions between the hammer-wielding warrior prince Thor (Chris Hemsworth) and his tortured brother Loki (Tom Hiddleston). Now confined to a cell behind a shimmering golden filigree mesh, Loki cools his heels in part duex while the latest enemy, Malekith (Christopher Eccleston), seeks to harness a shape-shifting force called Aether and destroy the nine realms that are coming together during a rare alignment. The alignment creates gateways between Asgard and Earth, a nifty screenwriting device that allows Thor’s love interest, the mortal astrophysicist Jane (Natalie Portman), to travel between both worlds as easily as she would between Spain and Portugal.

Under Alan Taylor’s direction, Thor: The Dark World continues to ignore the mismatched romantic pairing of Hemsworth and Portman, plays Loki’s simmering hatred for his family for comic relief, demands little from other illustrious actors in the cast, and easily fulfils its bang-for-the-buck ambitions by rolling out one eye-popping visual effect after the other. A mid-credits teaser for the third part, starring Benicio Del Toro as “The Counsellor”, suggests that the new realm that this franchise will venture into goes by the name of Camp.

Thor: The Dark World released in theatres on Friday. Read more at: http://www.livemint.com/Leisure/lxKZfM3DrpVJ6jacFibW4O/Film-Review--Thor-The-Dark-World.html

Man of Steel," which added a heavy dose of Krypton politics to Superman's once pleasantly silly story, comes "Thor: The Dark World," in which Thor's Asgard, a celestial home of gods floating somewhere in the universe, is the primary setting. Earth is an afterthought — just one of the "nine realms," albeit the one with Natalie Portman.

Gone are the earthbound pleasures of a superhero amid us mortals. Such was the joy of the "Spider-Man" movies and the first "Thor," when Chris Hemsworth's lofty, hammer-wielding Norse warrior, exiled to Earth, so happily encountered a cup of coffee for the first time.

As Marvel's latest 3-D behemoth, "Thor: The Dark World" isn't so much a sequel as the latest plug-and-play into the comic book company's blockbuster algorithm. It's a reliably bankable formula of world-saving action sequences, new villain introductions and clever quips from women on the side, (and they, most assuredly, are always off to the side).

The expansive Marvel universe is carefully stitched together across its many properties. "The Dark World" (with director Alan Taylor of "Game of Thrones" taking over for Kenneth Branaugh) follows "The Avengers" in chronology and runs alongside the current, unremarkable ABC series "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D."

Each is referred to with something less than, say, the binding connections of Faulkner's Yoknapatawpha County. Instead we get cloying winks. The great city of New York, for example, is reduced to shorthand for the climactic battle in "The Avengers," as if we're still so consumed by that movie. Yes, we're all very impressed it made so much money.

Thor has spent the last two years restoring order to the nine realms of the cosmos, but just as peace settles, a previously locked-away dark energy called the Aether seeps out. It leaks into Portman's astrophysicist, Jane Foster, awakening a previously vanquished species of Dark Elves, led by Malekith (Christopher Eccleston). They would like to see the universe returned to complete darkness. Not a day person, this Malekith.

This occurs as the nine realms are lining up in a rare convergence that makes them particularly susceptible to Aether-spread ruin. There's not a lick of character to Malekith and his motives: He just wants to end all life.

To save Life As We Know It, Thor seeks help from his duplicitous adoptive brother, Loki (Tom Hiddleston), who has been imprisoned for killing thousands of humans at "New York." Hiddleston's sneering Loki remains one of the finest Marvel antagonists, and — now with a starring role in three films — the franchise seems to value him (as it should) as much as his more heroic brother.

When "The Dark World" touches down on Earth, away from the "Clash of the Titans"-style realms of gods, it's considerably better. Along with Portman, returning is the sarcasm sidekick Kat Dennings (as Jane's intern) and Stellan Skarsgard as discredited scientist Erik Selvig. Chris O'Dowd makes a welcome cameo as a blind date for a very reluctant Jane.

The tone is far more amiable on Earth (London, to be specific, the site of the final showdown) than in Asgard, where Anthony Hopkins, Renee Russo and Idris Elba remain locked in golden-hued majesty. Hemsworth, a seemingly perfectly rendered movie star equipped with brawn and baritone, also suffers from the stiffness. He had much more fun in "Rush" earlier this year.

Ardent fans (who should stay through the credits) will likely be satiated by the pleasing enough "Thor: The Dark World." But perhaps at this point, even diehards may wish for something more from a Marvel equation that often subtracts humanity.

"Thor: The Dark World," a Walt Disney release, is ratedPG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America for "sequences of intense sci-fi action and violence, and some suggestive content." Running time: 111 minutes. Two stars out of four. reviews by http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/11/04/thor-the-dark-world-review-marvel-movie_n_4213684.html

"Thor: The Dark World" is the eighth movie in its particular franchise. So if anyone asks you what it has in common with "Blondie Goes Latin" and "Bomba and the Jungle Girl" you'll know the answer.

The franchise at hand goes by the name of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, encompassing the new adventures of Iron Man, the Hulk, Captain America and so on, worth billions around the world. (Rumor has it the next all-star "Avengers" movie will be two hours of actors in costume, counting their money.) So how's this "Thor" sequel? It's fairly entertaining. Same old threats of galaxy annihilation, spiced with fish-out-of-water jokes. My favorite here: Encountering a London flat for the first time in his travels, Chris Hemsworth's Thor comes in the door and hangs his snazzy flying killer hammer from its leather loop on one of the coat hooks.

This is the second outing for mighty Thor and his mighty hammer, though honestly, what chance have they against Tom Hiddleston as Odin's other, less trustworthy son, Loki? The chief adversary from the first "Thor" (which I liked, in spite of its squareness) and the hugely popular mash-up "The Avengers" has a way of making valor and honor look foolish. Clearly director Alan Taylor, whose previous work has mostly been in classy series television (lately, "Game of Thrones" and "Boardwalk Empire"), likes this character best, because he snivels most.

Now for some very important plot points. In "Thor 2" Malekith, the leader of the dark elves of Svartalfheim, comes out of a long hibernation ready to rumble. Their secret weapon is the aether, pronounced "ee-ther," an "ancient force of infinite destruction," as Anthony Hopkins' Odin describes it, sounding like he's saying the words "blah blah blah" instead.

 

When some of the aether enters the bloodstream of astrophysicist Jane Foster (Natalie Portman once again), things get sticky. At the end of "Thor 1" Thor took off back to Asgard, leaving Jane bereft. "Thor 2" ponders the challenges of intergalactic dating, and the film has its scrambled moments where one beat of an action sequence begins on Earth, and then two seconds later, the second beat is completed at the other end of the tunnel. After a while anything's possible, and little is compelling, even though it's on Asgard where Jane meets Thor's folks. Other scenes takes place on Vanaheim, which is like Anaheim without Disneyland.

Taylor handles the battle sequences dutifully and without much visual dynamism. (If you go to "Thor 2," don't bother with the 3-D edition. Two's enough.) By now, in this Marvel world, we've seen everything twice, and it's hard to impress audiences with something new. But we don't go to "Thor 2" or any of these films, really, for something new. We go because we saw the other ones. The most satisfying films of the eight so far — the first "Iron Man" and "Captain America: The First Avenger" — did the job with a lighter hand and a less pummeling attack.

The occasional charms of "Thor 2" are all about the way Kat Dennings (back again as Jane's intern) deadpans her way through another Armageddon, or Hopkins' stunning final-t consonant enunciation when he bites off the end of the word "birthright." Or Hiddleston's malevolent grin, the mocking face of sibling rivalry. Plenty of fine actors do what they can here amid the digital mayhem and smashed columns. At times the film appears to have been directed by The Hulk, in a snit. source: http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2013-11-06/entertainment/chi-thor-dark-world-review-20131106_1_dark-world-asgard-thor

Reviews: Marvel’s Cinematic Universe continues this Friday with the theatrical release of Thor: The Dark World. The sequel to the 2011 superhero blockbuster is the second film in Marvel’s “Phase II” movie slate as we move our way closer to The Avengers: Age of Ultron. Read my spoiler-free review after the break.

When we last left Thor (played by Chris Hemsworth) in The Avengers, he had returned to his homeworld Asgard with adopted brother Loki (Tom Hiddleston) as a prisoner. The Bifrost bridge that connects Asgard to the other eight realms in the Universe was still broken from Thor, so these realms dived into chaos. We meet back up with Thor in this film as he and his Warriors Three are trying to restore order. Thor’s love interest Jane Foster (Natalie Portman) has been trying to find him since he left her in New Mexico, and in the process accidentally gets possessed by a dark force called “The Aether”. The energy of the Aether will kill Jane, so Thor takes her back to Asgard to get her some help.

Our primary villain Malekith (Christopher Eccleston) is leader of the Dark Elves, who want the Aether to turn the Universe into darkness. They come to Asgard and reek havoc, including killing a supporting character that will have ramifications for the rest of the film. Loki has been locked up this whole time, but now Thor needs his help to save Jane and take down Malekith.

As you might be able to tell, the storyline in this film is much more complex and involved than the original. I didn’t even mention the backstory of Odin’s father originally defeating the Elves eons ago, or the fact that this is all possible because of a rare alignment of the nine realms. The storyline might be a bit much for some, but I found it refreshingly in-depth.

While I did enjoy Thor, a lot of its problems are fixed in The Dark World. The storyline is one thing, but there is some great worldbuilding in this film. We see a lot more of Asgard and other realms, which I think is thanks to director Alan Taylor. We also get to see more of the people that live in these realms. The character development is improved this time around. For instance, we get to learn more about Thor’s parents, especially his mother Frigga (Rene Russo). However, it’s Loki that truly stands out in this film. We get to peek into his soul, yet we are never quite sure what he’s really thinking or scheming at any point. Even after three films, Hiddleston still breathes new life into the character. Unfortunately, with all this extra development, the villain Malekith gets left behind. There’s not much to the character, but I didn’t mind all that much.

The film also has a lot more action and sci-fi elements throughout, where the first movie used action sequences as bookends. There is still plenty of comedy in The Dark World, and possibly too much. The Marvel films have always been more on the lighter side, but the humor in the Thor films isn’t as natural as say the Iron Man films. It’s more gags and silly humor. Fortunately, there’s enough good stuff mentioned above to balance the tone. There are also some nice nods to the first film and The Avengers.

The end of the film leaves us a bit of a cliffhanger, and there’s TWO end credit scenes. One teases a future Marvel film, and the other is a bit of a throwaway.

Overall, Thor: The Dark World is a fun ride that improves on the original. While the over-the-top humor still plagues the franchise, there’s enough action, character development, and plot to balance it all out. source: http://www.movieviral.com/2013/11/06/thor-the-dark-world-movie-review/
