Not bad/ alright.
But I want something between that and ‘it was good’

As a Thor fangirl I feel the director didn't really care to get the characters.
It's good, but the other 2 Thor movies are better. He got the film where Marvel wanted it at the end.

Not bad/ alright. But I want something between that and ‘it was good’ I just saw it and I feel the exact same way. It was good, just not great. Some aspects just felt off.

They played fast & loose with the personalities for laughs. Some of the jokes were out of character/could have been done by any character.

What does god need with a starship? It was ok, better than the Guardians movie (middlebrow instead of lowbrow slapstick humor), but slightly inferior to Spiderman.
Marvel really trivialized the Ragnarök myth which is dark, grim and deadly. Also I felt this was too big a tonal and character shift from the previous movies, felt like a soft reboot and not part of a trilogy (I had similar issues with CA 3).
Ultimately, as fun as it is, I think this film will not age well. It's essentially jokes, action antics and slapstick without much substance. This is fun first time but on repeated viewings will be too shallow for such a subject matter. I bet in the long run the first Thor movie will be considered the best of the trilogy - it's better than its image: still a solidly written effort with arcs and some storytelling based on the myth.

What does god need with a starship? Same reason the New Gods need Mother Boxes, I suppose. Look, I know some people think Ragnarok is the same thing as the Apocalypse...it's not. Never was. So is Planes, Trains and Automobiles...still a classic.

Look, I know some people think Ragnarok is the same thing as the Apocalypse...it's not. Never was. Huh? The Apocalypse (John) has nothing to do with it, nobody mentioned it except YOU. Ragnarök is about the bloody dying of most of the gods (Doom of the Gods) in a final battle including Thor, Odin and Loki plus Loki's offspring and most life drowning in the great flood. Not very funny. Thus, as I said "dark, grim and deadly". Not a joke fest a la Thor 3. You misunderstand the meaning of question.

What, you haven't heard about how Ragnarok shouldn't have any humor in it because it's the end of the world? Guess what, it's NOT the end of the world. Never was. It's the end of one cycle, life begins again and the Gods return to start over. They aren't wiped out. It's a valid question, if the New Gods can have ships and Mother Box tech then Asgardians can have spaceships too.

I have a number of issues with Ragnarok. For one, I didn't like Thor screaming like a little girl or begging like a coward. Even if it was done for laughs it just didn't match the character. I was fine with him looking like a dumb jock though. I also didn't like how easily Fandral and Volstagg were dispatched. They deserved a better end than that, at least put up a fight like Hogun. There's a few more issues I have.
But in the end, the movie was so darn enjoyable that it's hard to stay irritated at it when you're having so much fun. It's one of those flawed movies that still end up being one of your all-time favorites. I don't consider it a great movie, but I'm sure it will be one of my most re-watched movies of all time.

They were surprised. Hogun had time to put up a fight. The other two where taken out right out the gate.

Hela didn't want to completely wipe out every Asgardian, at least not at first. She wanted to come home to their adoration and praise. She wanted to be recognized as their queen. So it didn't make sense that she just went ahead and killed them. And even if she was intent on killing everything in site, the writers could have easily made the two put up a bit of a fight. Something better than going out like random fodder.

The whole thing went like "Wait?! Who are you? Let me take out my weap- Nope not fast enough! I'm dead." And that was in a few seconds. If Hogun was there he would have been dead just as fast.

If Hogun was there he would have been dead just as fast. Still doesn't make sense. Thor was brandishing his weapon when first talking with Hela. Hela still talked to Thor and Loki and wanted them to kneel. When confronted with the entire army of Asgard, fully armed and formed against her, Hela still tried to get them to acknowledge her as queen first. It is understandable that Volstagg would question who she was, and it's not like Volstagg would have attacked her out of nowhere even if he was picking up a weapon. So it was out of character for Hela to attack the two out of nowhere. But the main point I'm making is not that Hogun lasted longer because he's better. But rather that the writers did not need to write Volstagg and Fandral dying that fast. Either they could have been written not to have been attacked without cause or they could have at least put up even a few seconds of fight before they were run over.

So it was out of character for Hela to attack the two out of nowhere. Because she was there to talk to (and probably kill) Odin. And she acknowledged them as her brothers. Volstagg and Fandral were playing guards at the gate and moved to stop her. Take them out so you can walk on through. Notice she says to Skurge that he sees reasoning because he didn't make a move on her (can't remember the exact line). The army that Hogun had wasn't moving on her. But she did fight them off and loved every second of it. So yes it was in character for her. They were in her way.

Annoyed with the treatment of Banner. In The Avengers he gives a very believable impression that hes legitimately afraid of turning into the Hulk and has considered suicide- during that great argument scene where he picks up the Sceptor. Pretty heavy stuff. In Ragnarok, this theme is brought up again as hes afraid of turning into the Hulk as he fears hes never going to be Banner again. But the way its handled is poor and watered down. They turned his daring transformation scene at the end into a real cringe worthy slapstick humor gag. Completely disregarding his fear of turning into the Hulk in this film and previous ones including Age of Ultron. He gets over it in 2 minutes.
