People said, Thor: The Dark World is one of awaited Marvel's movie this year. We've already seen Iron Man 3 in the beginning of the year and The Avengers in the last year. Is Thor: The Dark World worth to watch as one of Marvel's movie? Let's see :)

An ancient race, Dark Elves led by Malekith (Christopher Eccleston) is back to take his vengeance with Asgard. He is risen by the strong evil power of Aether which is absorbed by Thor's scientist girlfriend, Jane Foster (Natalie Portman). To stop Malekith, Thor (Chris Hemsworth) must sacrifice everything, even asks Loki (Tom Hiddleston) to help him.
Odin: Some believe that before the universe, there was nothing. They're wrong. There was darkness... and it has survived.
a fair review
So,who still remembered the first Thor? I admit I really really forget all the storyline. What I do sure remember is just one thing, Loki ! For you who didn't watch the first movie of Thor, don't have to worry, this movie doesn't connect at all with the first movie. As long you know who Thor and Loki are, that's enough :)
Chris Hemsworth is still terrific as Thor. Look at his powerful body, he wins all the women's heart, LOL :D He also does a good chemistry with other co-stars, like his father Odin (Anthony Hopkins) and his brothernemy Loki, but I think he lacks (a little, just a little) chemistry with Jane Foster. Natalie Portman is also doing well as Jane Foster the astro-physician. She is perfectly beautiful, I like her. And all supporting casts, like Zachary Levi as Fandrall, Jaimie Alexander as Sif, Kat Dennings as Jane's assistant, Darcy and don't forget the naked professor, Dr. Eric and Darcy's part-time assistant, Ian, get the same portion as movie stealer actor and actress. They all did great job, especially Kat Dennings, whenever she appears, I will laugh.
I should say, Tom Hiddleston steals the entire movie as well as he does in first Thor and Avengers. All the way, Loki ! He gets all the best lines in the movie, so that's why everyone wouldn't forget him. He can deliver so well his emotional and his trickery performance.
Actually, Thor: The Dark World has interesting storyline, but it fades easily by jokes & humors inside this movie. This movie is really entertaining, eventhough there are some unnecessary jokes, but still like it. For me, Thor: The Dark World is the funniest among Marvel's movie. The special effect is also perfect too, I can feel how beautiful the Nine Realms and the universal-alignment-gravity effect.
Not everything is perfect you know, Malekith as the villain is really flat, but that's not too important as long as keeping Loki front (as mid-villain too). The fighting scene is also flat, I almost fell asleep (just in my opinion). The ending is also not really superb, but fortunately there is a teaser which makes the audience absolutely curious about the next Thor movie.
Absolutely recommended ! Stay in the movie theater until the last credit, there are 2 clips waiting in the line. Sadly, I just watched 1 clip :(
Rating : 7.8 / 10
