If this is Liams' last film, it's a solid effort. Getting hard to believe a near 70-year-old can whump ass. Source material was dark and timely. The movie tuned to meander a bit with some scenes not need to move the story forward, this tended to take away from the overall experience. A solid movie with a few mistakes, it's by no means liams best work, but not his worst.
Now that we have got to see behind the curtain at the evil corporation that owns Marvel by way of leaked Zoon calls. I saw some interesting 'theories' that are present in this film. I tuned out most comic book movies a few years ago but took my 13 year old son. There was noting too gratuitous to scare him which was nice. Having a character in the film named 'America' led to some interesting dialog, "America is running out of time', "we need to take America's power". The connection to the real life satanic led evil corporate owners not lost on me. As well, the use of a secret group in the film that controls things called the 'Illuminati' was a little to on point. Lastly, if the scene of the satanic witch Black Widow trying to sacrifice the character 'America' doesn't tell you Mickeys evil overlords ain't hell-bent on destroying western society your not paying attention. Their message is loud and clear.
Can't quite put my finger on why this film did not move me. Almost everything was perfect, cinematography was excellent, set design was perfect. Main actor was excellent. Not having a good grasp of Norse mythology hurt my understanding. And sad to say, the amount of plastic surgery Nichole Kidman has had led to me gawking at her more than enjoying her performance. Her sceneing were supposed to show passion, something hard to do when your forehead/cheeks don't move. If another actress had played her role, this movie would have been brilliant.
