I loved Tom Hiddleston as Loki (and I continue to love him in every role I've seen him so far), but I thought Portman was miscast...I just didn't buy her role or her chemisty with Thor. Kudos to Branagh (with so much Shakespearean background) for directing an action movie, it was very good and a very pleasant surprise coming from him!Dianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18333927581755884053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21463545.post-25814557248326428992012-05-03T14:04:38.335-07:002012-05-03T14:04:38.335-07:00@Sati-Hemsworth won me over.

Still, a good Summer blockbuster from last year and it was also one that I remember everybody was worried about because it just looked like it was going to blow so much. Thankfully, Branagh proved us wrong.

Then again, when you see someone as lovely like Natalie Portman.

That's not Hemsworth's fault, but the writer's. The transition from jerk to nicest guy in the world just wasn't believable to me. I agree with you on Hiddleston, and am looking forward to seeing him reprise the role in The Avengers.Chip Laryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00787403805554027107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21463545.post-17965158131282999402012-05-02T15:25:58.545-07:002012-05-02T15:25:58.545-07:00I kind of knew what was going to happen but that d...I kind of knew what was going to happen but that didn't stop me from enjoying it.
