"Thor: Love and Thunder" finds Thor (Chris Hemsworth) on a journey unlike anything he's ever faced -- a quest for inner peace. But his retirement is interrupted by a galactic killer known as Gorr the God Butcher (Christian Bale), who seeks the extinction of the gods. To combat the threat, Thor enlists the help of King Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson), Korg (Taika Waititi) and ex-girlfriend Jane Foster (Natalie Portman), who -- to Thor's surprise -- inexplicably wields his magical hammer, Mjolnir, as the Mighty Thor. Together, they embark upon a harrowing cosmic adventure to uncover the mystery of the God Butcher's vengeance and stop him before it's too late.

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.

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.

Times (UK)

... Not just the best Marvel movie yet made, but a bona fide camp comedy classic: fast, bright, gaudy, prickly, antic and fun.

The jokes, the catch-phrases, just incredibly tired...

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

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.

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
