One of the best parts of Thor 3. Thor had to use his brain to "win" and it wasn't really a win. Hela wasn't beaten by any last minute "burst of strength" that is so common in adventure movies. Thor suffered great loss in the movie. He lost Odin, his hammer, his freaking eye, and his homeworld. Thor using his brain was one of my favorite things about it. He outsmarted Valkyrie and Loki as well. It just proves how weak Thor is. True heroes don't destroy. True heroes save. Instead of digging deep and trying to find the courage and strength from within, Thor (and the writers) basically chose the lazy and cowards' way out by turning the Asgardians into refugees without a home. There aren't actually any rules for what "true heroes" do. Sometimes you have to make a sacrifice in order to "save". That's what Thor did. Your description of "destroy" isn't remotely accurate to what happened. Surtur did the destroying. Ripley is physically weak too but she is still a hero. (one of the best ever) She had to destroy her ship to win in Alien and had to destroy the eggs in Aliens and "nuke from orbit" was the goal there. You should watch more adventure movies before you make up some rigid rules for heroes. The Thor ending was the opposite of the lazy way in my mind. I saw every hero this year do the "reach deep down for hidden strength" thing. That's the cliche. Thor got the "hidden strength" and that wasn't enough to beat the villain. Pretty original. |
