Thor in 3D (1:55) 2011

Save some money by seeing Thor without paying the extra for 3D. It was not  worth the extra amount. Actually, I enjoyed seeing the previews of Pirates of the Caribbean in 3D more than Thor special effects in 3D. The filmed is packed with special effects and the CGI of Asgard, Thor's kingdom in one of the nine realms is extremely creative. The storyline focuses in on the main character, Thor, the son of Odin. Thor is a handsome, charming, and a strong warrior. His father, played by Anthony Hopkins, realizes his son is also immature, arrogant and not ready to lead his people. Thor, after disregarding his father's orders, is banished to Earth. Scientists encounter Thor in the New Mexico desert. Jane Foster, played by Natalie Portman, is the young scientist who falls in love with Thor. The scientists eventually realize that Thor is from another world and assist him in his efforts to regain his source of strength, his hammer. The action sequences are divided between Earth and Asgard. I would have preferred more of the action to have taken place on Earth but I am assuming that the director, the well known Kenneth Branagh, is setting up this movie for sequels. Another assumption of mine is that Thor will be very popular with males in the 13 - 33 age bracket. As much as I enjoy superhero or characters based on comic books, this is not one of my favorites. It was enjoyable and entertaining but just not one of my favorites. Reminder: Stay for the previews of The Avengers shown after the credits end.
