movie review - Thor

This is a super-hero movie based on the Marvel Thor comic books, which I never read. Thor is given a challenge to earn his place as heir to the throne of Asgard. Asgard is plunged into war and Thor - "minus his powers" - is on Earth. It's got a decent cast and is general engaging with a plot and strong characters and challenges at different levels. For one of these endless Marvel super-human things it is at least straightforward and has a point. Our seven-year-old son enjoyed it for "movie night".
Recommended.
