MOVIES: We made Rev. Adam McKinney see “Thor”

DUMBSHIT BRASS-WORKS REVIEWED BY THE AREA'S ONLY LOCAL FILM CRITIC >>>

Here is a movie so arbitrary that it defies definition. Were it not for the comic that preceded it, there would be no plausible explanation for Thor's existence.

Drawing slight inspiration from Norse mythology, Thor stages the godly kingdom of Asgard as a kind of steam-punk paradise - an unholy mixture of old-world technology and dumbs*** brass-works. Odin (Anthony Hopkins) has long had a truce with the vaguely evil Ice Giants, which his son Thor (Chris Hemsworth) threatens with his brash arrogance. Sensing a dangerous slide toward war, Odin banishes Thor to puny Earth, where Thor is stripped of his powers and exiled as a crazy homeless dude.
