Thor: The Dark World

2013 has been proven to be a great year for two of the Avengers Iron Man and Thor. A couple of months ago, we witnessed Iron Man 3 and based on what I see, this movie was definitely worth spectacular but with the ending that is worth questioning what comes next for businessman Tony Stark.

Now it's the turn of the God of Thunder who wields the Hammer of the Gods and making a re-THOR-N (pun intended) on the big screen is pretty much of a gimmick right now because...how can the sequel stack up?

Thor: The Dark World
Chris Hemsworth reprises back his role of an avenger is worth of a challenge but on this sequel, things are getting a lot more challenging as he'll be facing against a malevolent force threatened to conquer nine realms into darkness. That enemy we're talking about is Malekith, the ruler of the Dark Elves, who was played by former Doctor Who lead actor Christopher Eccleston, and which is kinda surprising though because what we have here is Thor facing up against some sort of a evil villain who kinda look like a Teletubby but in expectation, played by the man who used to be Doctor Who. Kinda more of a twist that we never saw it coming but to make things a lot more expecting, Natalie Portman returned to the film as human ally Jane Foster while a Brit name Tom Hiddleston made a comeback as Thor's evil brother Loki.

Although the flow of the story may seem to be a mediocre at first but when it gets further, this sequel tries to show its true self, showing how cool this movie's going to be but for not fooling everyone. It's fine if you want to watch this movie with the whole family and friends but when things started to get a little chatty, I'd expect that this is not quite the movie recommended for your taste and best to watch this movie by yourself but still, even though the storyline is messy, you can be forgiven with tons of special effects as well as the fight scenes that will put our favorite God of Thunder to the test.

Better still, if you watched the original two years ago, it takes time to appreciate the sequel before its ready to be recommended but if I have to rate this movie, I'd say I'll give it a 3 out of 5 because while this movie is worth the wait, there are some downsides to this sequel. No matter what, this movie is definitely a must-watch for Marvel fans many.
