So, what did everybody think?
I've made no secret of the fact I have found the films in Phase 3 to be underwhelming and sometimes annoying, but I really felt this film was a return to form for Marvel. Handily the best Thor film and the best 'Threequel' we've had yet.
Cate Blanchett knocked it out of the park as Hela, as did Jeff Goldblum as the Grandmaster. The fight scenes were all hardcore awesome, particularly the big bridge battle. I'm glad they really emphasized the 'Thunder' part of Thor's title.
Hulk and Valkyrie were great choices for Thor's teammates, and even Loki was written in a way that wasn't irritating for once.
And I don't feel this film was nearly as comedic as all the reviews played it up as. There were jokes, sure, but most of the plot was focused on two different murderous, slave owning megalomaniacs trying to kill everybody. In fact compared to the Guardians films or Age of Ultron I'd say this film was significantly less funny.
I think they should have swapped the post credit scenes though. The ending one was stupid and useless, while the middle one was the real cliffhanger.
My one question though, where was Sif?
