Thor: Love and Thunder

-

DISNEY+ ★★★★

PREMIERE SUPERHERO The latest pairing of writer-director Taika Waititi and Chris Hemsworth’s Thor is more extension than reinventio­n, but it’s wilder, funnier, and significan­tly more heartfelt than Thor: Ragnarok. When we rejoin Thor four years after the events of Endgame, he's alerted to the existence of Gorr, the God Butcher (Christian Bale) – a dark force on a mission to slay every living deity. This brings Thor back into the orbit of his ex, Jane (Natalie Portman), who’s transforme­d considerab­ly... Portman’s return to the MCU gives Love and Thunder a romcom tint, and there’s a keen desire to put a smile on viewers’ faces, with the film careening from one terrifical­ly entertaini­ng sequence to the next. Dir: Taika Waititi 2022, 12
