WHY THE MPAA RATED IT: PG-13 For sequences of intense sci-fi action and violence. It is the latest Marvel Comics character to be given the big-screen treatment and lays the ground for next summer's "The Avengers." Back in Asgard, Loki continues to consolidate his power, conjuring up The Destroyer and sending him to Earth to kill Thor and all who stand in his way. He also runs afoul of a top-secret government organization known as SHIELD, represented by the sardonic Agent Coulson (CLARK GREGG), who has cordoned off a section of the New Mexico desert where Mjolnir, the almighty hammer of Thor has landed. Stripped of his powers, Thor befriends a team of scientists studying wormholes and atmospheric phenomenon comprised of Jane Foster (NATALIE PORTMAN), Erik Selvig (STELLAN SKARSGARD), and Darcy Lewis (KAT DENNINGS). Odin eventually comes to the rescue and banishes Thor from Asgard to the distant planet of Earth.
In fact, he secretly plots with his people's sworn enemy to seize the throne from his brother.Īfter a sneak attack by the rival Frost Giants led by King Laufey (COLM FEORE), orchestrated by the power-hungry Loki, Thor disobeys his father's wishes and ventures into the Frost Giants' realm with warriors Volstagg (RAY STEVENSON), Sif (JAIMIE ALEXANDER), Fandral (JOSH DALLAS), and Hogun (TADANOBU ASANO) to wage war. Loki (TOM HIDDLESTON) is the more cerebral one, but he is prone to all sorts of mischief. Thor (CHRIS HEMSWORTH) is the greater warrior, but he is arrogant and often reckless. PLOT: Across the universe, the fantastic realm of Asgard is ruled by Odin (ANTHONY HOPKINS) and Frigga (RENE RUSSO) who knows that he will one day cede control of his kingdom to one of this two sons.
QUICK TAKE: Action: Halfway across the cosmos, the arrogant warrior Thor is cast out of the realm of Asgard and banished to modern-day Earth where he becomes our protector. (2011) (Chris Hemsworth, Natalie Portman) (PG-13)
