Film Reaction: THOR: THE DARK WORLD

"Darling, keep me safe from the floating people with no legs!"


And so onwards rolls the Marvel juggernaut (uh, not the Marvel character Juggernaut, although that dude does roll on quite a bit) as, after Iron Man 3 basically killed summer for every other movie this year, the coming of winter brings with it the return of the mighty Odinson, he of magic hammer, enviable hair and crazy popular evil sibling.  While there's only been one prior Thor movie, the use of Loki as the main villain in The Avengers made that film quite organically the 'step 2' of the brothers' story, and leaves The Dark World with a very different starting point.  Even so, it still has to tie things up neatly from its predecessor and succeed in being a superior film, so, how did it do?  Read on, mortals.
