"Thor: Ragnarok", without the gods, without the twilight

"Ragnarok" is the only one in the Thor trilogy that I've watched. I didn't like Thor's tunes very much before, and I didn't want to watch it even as a pastime. But because the director who made this film has made "The Eagle and the Shark" and "The Hunt for the Savage", and this one doesn't have the role of Jane Foster, I think it's still worth watching. The whole is very Marvel-style, and the heavy subtitle is completely light-hearted and funny, which is good, not epic at all. The difference between Marvel and DC is that they are never ambitious in making a heavy and dark epic themed movie, and always implement the entertainment of the hero. Looking at it all the way, only the Captain America series and the Avengers series are relatively serious. The first Doctor Strange movie got off to a serious start, and the new "Black Panther" is said to be trying to return to the serious theme with a scene called "The Lion King." The theme of Thor comes from Norse mythology, and art works with the theme of the twilight of the gods, such as "The Ring of the Nibelung", are also solemn and majestic. The final chapter of Thor in this film is also very bold in a witty and relaxed comic style, and the final result is a feeling of contradiction: the look and feel is still refreshing and pleasant, but I always feel that there is a big regret. The story itself is not mentioned. Marvel's script is the foundation, and it will never take risks for the pursuit of style. Therefore, Marvel's stories are relatively strict and the logic is well grasped. Marvel is really familiar with this point, and I just look forward to the day when there is a bold breakthrough. What's less enjoyable is that the blow of Odin's death and the loss of Quake is too downplayed, and Hela's powerful rise isn't particularly convincing. This family ethics drama is too rushed and feels seriously out of touch with the previous story. The final scene of Ragnarok was actually very heroic, but it was a little thin in the style of electronic entertainment throughout. The overall picture style is a psychedelic electronic style with rich and colorful colors, because the story of Saka star occupies a large space. This part is very interesting, the music and the picture are electronic style. There are a few clips that are very oil painting, such as Valkyrie's memory of the battle with Hela, etc. The structure and color of the picture are very beautiful, but unfortunately it is only a few scenes, and the director finally implements the entertainment style. This is probably from the song "Immigrant" that was bought by Marvel. Song" can see the tone of this movie: burning, fun. In terms of character creation, Thor has matured a lot. Although it is not the kind of heroic image, the king's demeanor has been revealed. The combination of Hulk and Banner has created a lot of interesting bridges, but it has to be said that the addition of the Hulk to the Thor series is purely Marvel's Easter egg preference has become more and more excessive. The Valkyrie is still qualified, and the positioning also abides by her duty. There is no spark, only fighting. Loki is really a pity, just watching the first episode of "Avengers" as the villain he should know what kind of person he is and what his ambitions are. In this film, he was almost reduced to a purely functional role for the plot. Thor's revenge team needed a character who was shrewd and cunning, and Loki appeared. The reconciliation between the two brothers was touching, but felt too hasty. Hella's image is very accented, although it is also a flat villain image. To sum up, this Thor 3 flipped the first two, so the word of mouth exploded. Its tight rhythm and warm style are endearing, but it's clearly trying to please the audience, and thus goes against the majestic and solemn pattern of Ragnarok, both in the comics themselves and in Norse mythology. It has to be a pity, after all, this is the final chapter of Thor.

    Is this really "Thor"? Obviously more "Guardians of the Galaxy" than "Star Trek".
