Not Quite Iron Man, But Still A Fun Ride

This film zips along with an energetic pace that makes it extremely watchable and entertaining. The only complaint is that the human characters aren't given as much screen time and, thus, are basically paper-thin. When the film shifts to Asgard, however, the weight and power of battling gods is awe-inspiring and makes for some of the most jaw-dropping and visual action sequences of the film. Thor's adjustment to human life should have received more attention, but I get that that's not the type of film Branagh was trying to make and, surely, that will come in future sequels.
