I made an account just to say how awful this movie is. Kevin Nash wasted his time on this movie. The actors all looked terrible and did not fit the characters they attempted to portray. Whoever made this movie should be quite embarrassed. It makes me ask the question, what was the budget? Seems like a VERY small one. Even for the type of movie it is, it was bad. My opinion of it was very low before I even started watching it, but WOW! It surprised me, that's how bad it was to be honest. Even the CGI disappointed me, and I gave up watching as soon as I realised that the 10 minutes they were using to make Loki look scary... completely failed. (1/10)/10.

Wow… almighty I think not. I saw the ads playing on TV and it actually looked like it might be some harmless, no-brainer fun. Terrible, but fun. Well it was a no-brainer. As this limited made-for-TV Scy-fy feature (from The Global Asylum productions) was a lousy superhero knock-off with little in way of entertainment and even unintentional laughs in this role-playing venture. It reminded me of those Hercules / Xena TV episodes, but they were better. Other than Cody Deal's humorously awkward delivery of his lines and overall whiny attitude as Thor, this mockery was rather drab and repetitive. How many times do I have to watch Richard Grieco as the demonic god Loki wandering around the woods and streets. At least with that wandering, he did look badass in his get-up while also frowning a lot but at least there was a purpose for that constant wandering… in search of Odin's Hammer of Invincibility. So there's a lot of walking (bad guys), then running (good guys) and but also yelling. I don't know why… but yelling seems like the only way to get something across. Especially Thor. Constant arguments with Patricia Velasquez'z helpful character. But even when danger is around (dogs of hell and the CGI) or there's a chance to finish things off, people decide to stand around explaining things that just don't need explaining. Maybe it's because Thor is just so stupid, you just wish Locki would finish the job… "…Not quite!". When it comes to the jerky action, for most part it's done in awesome slow-motion to simply enhance the epic, if lumbering fight choreography. It's no effect, they are virtually fighting in slow motion. One move after another. While watch round after round as Thor gets beaten up by Locki. Every encounter is basically the same and Thor is too dumb to realise training would help. But no he must kill Loki… NOW! Quite awe-inspiring, just like the powerful dialogues with a message at heart. However where is else to you get to see Thor toting a machine gun… yep a machine gun… against a god… and he did have the hammer at his use. It figures, as its lack of imagination shows. Also showing up in a small part is Kevin Nash as Odin."I don't believe in fate."

A major blockbuster based on the Marvel Comic entitled Thor is released and someone had one clever idea...Marvel do not own the rights to the ancient Norse myth and therefore could not prevent this apparently rushed cash in.Unfortuently the film is empty of any decent ideas. In Asgard the characters talk modern American with no attempt to signify that this is a different world. The fight scenes are awful. At no point is it established what Loki (the antagonist of the film) wants or why other than he wants a hammer.Thor is a weak useless character and his father and brother do not let him fight, but he does, he falls over, disappears and then reappears and wakes up to find his brother and father dead. Then he is saved from Loki by a woman and they run away.The remainder of the plot, if there is one, is they run away from loki, then go to fight him, runaway, go back, runaway, and no character looks likes they actually have a reason for doing anything. They get to Earth and walk around a small industrial estate, and have no interaction with any earthlings which wastes a potential (albeit clichéd) story telling option. I wont ruin the end, because there isn't one worth watching.My favourite bit is when Loki somehow makes some CGI creatures appear and one woman runs from behind him screaming towards the camera and then off screen, a second later two men come running from the opposite direction into short and passed loki. There is no obvious sign of danger in view, so was the woman running towards her doom? My second fav bit is after Thor has saved the day, he suddenly surrounded by humans who apparently just want to stare at him.Some people have complained about the CGI, I didn't think it was that bad, obviously nowhere near top movie standards but if the film was well written and well acted the audience could suspend their disbelief and accept the cgi.

One of the worst movies I've ever seen, bar absolutely none. Special effects look like special defects, acting is so bad (except for Loki-nothing outstanding, but he looks like a genius compared to the others), it's to cry for, the plot is so simplistic it's almost scary, the dialogs are way beyond cliché, and most of the movie looks like it was filmed in a back lot. And yes, there is a dark and stormy knight.The movie is so bad I found myself rooting for Loki, hoping he would kill Thor as soon as possible, so that the movie would finally end. But no such luck. It kept going on, and on, and on, and... I almost wish I could have knocked myself out with the hammer of invincibility.There's 90 minutes of my life that I'll never get back.
