05.20.17Internet I liked this one pretty good. I liked that it was unabashedly magic that they were dealing with. not some science mumbo jumbo but all the way magic. It felt a little wilder, closer to the Thor movies than anything else, in the realism department but I thought they pulled it off better than the two Thors so far. There was kind of a weird tonal problem with the humor... it never hit just right with me. Actually, now that I think about it, Robert Downey Jr/Tony Stark. has been the only one to really get humor that works in the context of the action I think. The first Thor was much too goofy, the Captain America films much too serious. I guess there's hope with Spider-Man but I'd say fully integrating the levity has been a week point with Marvel films so far. Same goes for this... but other than that... I enjoyed the visual effect work, thought the cast was good, performances decent (even though some actors were given next to nothing to do (but I guess Rachel McAdams and Michael Stuhlbarg had to join the marvel club somehow along with every other living actor)... but whatever.. nitpicks. I liked it.
