After 28 films, it’s incredible that Marvel studios has anything new to say, never mind the ability to be fresh and entertaining. Read full review

Weirder than Ragnarok, but incredibly sincere in its outlook, Taika’s Thor-quel is a big, beautiful blast. You’ll love it, and probably thunder it too. What a classic Thor adventure! Read full review

Even in Valhalla or Paradise City, though, there is still love and loss; Thor dutifully delivers both, and catharsis in a climax that inevitably doubles as a setup for the next installment. Read full review

Peter Travers

Jul 8, 2022

It’s barely half as funny, fierce, romantic and thrilling as 2017's incomparable Thor: Ragnarok, but director Taika Waititi and sweetly self-mocking star Chris Hemsworth get such goofball jollies sending up the usual Marvel bloat that resistance is futile. Read full review

Vince Mancini

It’s weird more in a desperate, humanity-pushed-to-its-breaking-point kind of way, like it had so many commercial requirements pressing on its artistic sensibilities that the whole thing popped like a zit. Read full review

As hard as the cast and Taika Waititi try, though, it just doesn't work. "Thor: Ragnarok" felt effortless. "Thor: Love and Thunder" is working very hard, and not getting a lot to show for it. Read full review

Across Taika Waititi’s film, a war against the gods feels like an afterthought to a bad rom-com. Read full review

What the heck is wrong with you people? This movie was damn good. The comedy was appropriate and not too low brow as well as had great timing with their repeated gags. I genuinely can think of nothing negative to say about this movie. I think part of the issue is that you have to haveWhat the heck is wrong with you people? This movie was damn good. The comedy was appropriate and not too low brow as well as had great timing with their repeated gags. I genuinely can think of nothing negative to say about this movie. I think part of the issue is that you have to have expectations that are appropriate to the movie you are going to see. If you're a critic then sure... you can compare this to a Mona Lisa visual novel... but its a Marvel movie. They have fully established a set of expectations for their movies in general. If you don't like these comedy driven hero movies why would you subject yourself to 1.75 hours of them?… Expand

By far the weakest of the Thor movies. Way too much trying to be funny and speechifying. So many critical points (e.g,. the Blip) are ignored or barely mentioned. As with many of the recent Phase 4 MCU shows and movies, Kevin Feige has got us waiting (way too long) as to how this relates toBy far the weakest of the Thor movies.

I couldn't wait for this movie to come out since it was announced. More than any other movie that Marvel would put out since Endgame. I stayed away from the reviews. I wanted to go in fresh. But I would catch snippets here and there that its hot garbage. I saw this movie in the theatresI couldn't wait for this movie to come out since it was announced. More than any other movie that Marvel would put out since Endgame. I stayed away from the reviews. I wanted to go in fresh. But I would catch snippets here and there that its hot garbage. I saw this movie in the theatres and hated it. I wanted to walk out. Thor plays a half twit dumb ass who cant seem to do anything right. The Guardians are barely in the movie and Quill seems pretty stupid as well. He has this look on his face like he had a traumatic brain injury that was never diagnosed. The plot is ok. I wanted to wait to write this until I saw it again on Disney +. I couldn't even make it half way through before I turned it off. Makes me so angry to wait 3+ years for this to come out and get whatever the hell this was. Top Gun Maverick better win best picture or I'm really gonna lose it!… Expand

The worst Thor movie so far.
Joke after joke after joke, and its not funny.
Thor is just a walking joke, but the females character are strong and cant do nothing wrong.
