What to Know

Critics Consensus

In some ways, Thor: Love and Thunder feels like Ragnarok redux -- but overall, it offers enough fast-paced fun to make this a worthy addition to the MCU.

Audience Says

Even though Thor: Love and Thunder's constant silliness makes it hard to invest in the more serious sides of the story, there's still plenty here to enjoy.

Thor: Love and Thunder | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Christina Newland iNews.co.uk Hemsworth has always been likeable as the smug superhero-god with the Adonis-like physique to match, but the risky attempt to transfer that charisma or to spread it around to other characters is not a gamble that pays off. Rated: 2/5 Oct 21, 2022 Full Review Thor: Love and Thunder | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Tom Shone Times (UK) ... Not just the best Marvel movie yet made, but a bona fide camp comedy classic: fast, bright, gaudy, prickly, antic and fun. Rated: 5/5 Aug 24, 2022 Full Review Thor: Love and Thunder | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Mark Kermode Kermode & Mayo's Film Review The jokes, the catch-phrases, just incredibly tired... Aug 3, 2022 Full Review Thor: Love and Thunder | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Denise Pieniazek Puesta en Escena (AR) Thor: Love and Thunder focuses on the new Asgard, which in a way allows it to start over and get rid of the events previously narrated with Avengers, in order to focus on the future of the “god of thunder” with a different narrative tone. Rated: 5/10 Aug 22, 2024 Full Review Thor: Love and Thunder | Rotten Tomatoes (5) Brittany Patrice Witherspoon Pop Culture Reviews Underneath its charming romance that feels a little too late and an adventure that is plagued by VFX troubles, this is a story that only reaches half of its potential despite having some fun along the way. Rated: 3/5 Jul 25, 2024 Full Review Thor: Love and Thunder | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Paul Klein FILMHOUNDS Magazine it's thrilling to see a film that is so unashamed of it's aspirations for romance. Rated: 4/5 Jul 4, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Daniel A This is a movie that shows a cocky movie director can get too much in his head. Had great movie hits only to have this be his own downfall. Is it a comedy or a drama? Christian Bale was totally wasted. Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 10/08/24 Full Review Audience Member I loved Taika's Films and Direction before this movie. As a person who went through something similar to one of the main characters in this film goes through I was appalled and thought the end was very unsupportive and downright depressing. Not only for myself but to all the kids who look up to these films as hope in the hardest times in their lives and to be crushed was uncalled for and unsympathetic. Rated 1/5 Stars • Rated 1 out of 5 stars 06/17/24 Full Review Cheryl It was so predictable so much like the other Jurassic movies. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/30/24 Full Review Jacob C I can't quite put this movie into a genre. If I had to choose I would say superhero sci-fi but also comedy... but also romance? It was everything we needed to see from Thor and Jane's relationship, but also the character arc furthering what Thor is doing now since many of his team members who end up becoming what is left of his family are now gone. Who is Thor without Asgard and without the Avengers? This movie answers these questions. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/20/24 Full Review William D Don’t make another Thor movie please you already ruined him. Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/24/24 Full Review Craig it doesn't surpass Ragnarok. which is nearly perfect for a more comedic marvel movie. but It has some good stuff. it's funny, tho some of the jokes deserve more of a chuckle, and some a good eye roll. Still thors character arch is one of the best. Rated 3/5 Stars • Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/15/23 Full Review Read all reviews
