Tremendously entertaining, & arguably funnier than either Guardians of the Galaxy or Ant-Man, all of which are welcome levity yin from heavier yang for my MCU enjoyment. I liked the noticeable lane change for Thor & co. here. An excellent ensemble film - which for Thor & Hulk, aligns well with CA:CW as a pair of complementary team-up films aside their Avengers films between AOU & IW, prior Thanos' arrival. Doctor Strange's appearance here is tremendous, his wizarding Thor & Loki both is highly rewarding (& I've never really needed Dr. Strange's own film as re-watch). BP, SM, & DS... all prime characters I get my fav fix from their actual non-headlined films. The look & vibe of this entire movie is great, eye & ear candy all over the map. Jeff Goldblum is f'n awesome here, & he gives one of my fav post-post credit moments of the saga 'And, well, it's a tie'. Korg simply adds another layer of enjoyment. The sound/music palette is rather unique & oddly fits perfectly with its creative direction. It is fascinating that it's this fun movie as direct lead into Infinity War, & yet it just works. I suppose that only helps add gravity for IW once we get going there. My MCU favs: 1. Avengers: Age of Ultron 2. Avengers: Infinity War 3. Captain America: Civil War 4. Avengers: Endgame 5. Captain America: The First Avenger 6. The Avengers 7. Thor: Ragnarok 8. Guardians of the Galaxy 9. Ant-Man 10.Iron Man

I love this film so much. A movie that rose from the ashes of mediocrity (Dark World) the same way Batman Begins did over a decade ago.

Creative use of the Thor comic book mythos, and considering the major players involved it felt surprisingly disconnected from the rest of the MCU. Great character progression for Thor, Loki and even Hulk. The film's humor was misused in a few places, but overall the offbeat comedic take really breathed new life into a stale Thor franchise.

One of the best Marvel films from Phase 3 and their best sequel since The Winter Soldier. 8.5/10. It's been said to death but it's certainly the best Thor movie and puts the first two to absolute shame. Such giddy imaginative fun and a joyous vibe throughout the picture. Cate Blanchett as Hela is one of the great comic book movie villains. She's scary, sexy, and funny.

I do think it’s a lot of fun, though maybe they could’ve toned down a bit on the humour.

While Ragnarok is not my favorite MCU movie, I do find it has the most rewatch value. It's definitely the most entertaining.

There is nothing about this film I don't like
Plus it had Karl Urban who has yet to appear in a poor comic book film....Ragnarok, Dredd, Red, The Boys(...oh shit I forget about Priest)

This is the best of the Thor films. It's instantly rewatchable and I love how it re-invented Thor. While they were some spectacular VFX shots (like the Valkyrie flashbacks), I wasn't too impressed with the cinematography. It still has the muted grayish look that some of the MCU films have. I, too, wished they held back on some of the humor. Korg's line delivered shortly after Asgard's destruction was unneeded.

Its corny and plus no darcy whos the best character from the thor movies Calling a movie 'corny' from a guy who likes Venom, The Amazing Spider-Man 2, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, and 1997's Spawn(Clown farting and all) is all kinds of hilarious just saying...Because those movies are so corny corn wouldn't want anything to do with them. And Darcy barely registers as a character to begin with, and only you think she was the best part of any of them - most would say Loki was the best thing out of all three.

The real Ragnarok movie is lord of the rings meets pg 13 game of thrones. its a shame what this movie became. The fact that it still has defenders just shows people are still brainwashed by mcu.

What did you think about the films stance on anti colonialism? there was none. Maybe your comprehension skills are lacking? Maybe you could watch it again, listen to the dialogue, pay attention to the characters actions and THINK about what it all means? Just a thought.

With this level of pretentiousness he has, I'm honestly surprised that summers8 hasn't tried to defend Fant4stic.
