Thor: Love and Thunder Reviews
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.
| Original Score: 5/10 | Aug 22, 2024
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.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 25, 2024
it's thrilling to see a film that is so unashamed of it's aspirations for romance.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Jul 4, 2024
Taika Waititi's Thor: Love and Thunder is a gigantic fable. Also, a tour of all the high points of Ragnarok and a recasting of the hero. All, in a package of dazzling brilliance that, at times, can be irritating. [Full Review in Spanish]
| Original Score: B- | Dec 31, 2023
Director Taika Waititi successfully juggles the comic and the tragic in Marvel Studios’ “Thor: Love and Thunder."

The story does a fantastic job of giving us new aspects to explore with Thor; not as a god, but as a hero.
| Original Score: A+ | Sep 26, 2023
There’s enough meat on the bones for the film to provide middling entertainment, but it’s a shame Waititi seemed to have so little to really flesh the movie out.

In a deft twist on class war – the gods bleed gold – Thor must confront his privilege and make amends for other gods’ failures to keep promises.
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Aug 16, 2023
Despite its great acting, score and worldbuilding and epic character moments, Thor: Love and Thunder feels like one continuous joke that doesn’t land.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 31, 2023
No spark or brio in its romantic affairs or CGI-filled action sequences... frustratingly one-note comedic panderings undercut any attempt at developing an emotional story arc.
| Original Score: F | Jul 29, 2023
A bittersweet story about finding peace and love in suffering and pain, without forgetting the necessary thunderous action that reaches its best level in a long sequence surrounded by a breathtaking black-and-white color palette.
| Original Score: B+ | Jul 25, 2023
Romantic action comedy you need this summer! An action packed hilarious but also poignant film on change! Taika Wrote a wonderful story that I just fell head over heels for!
| Jul 25, 2023
The film’s final scene explains the rationale for the film’s title and shows a glimpse of a different path Love and Thunder could’ve taken. A path that would have been more fit for Waititi’s vision of an 80s romance adventure hijinks-filled movie.

Thor: Love and Thunder is gorgeously shot, chaotically executed, tonally inconsistent at times, and yet a joy ride even when it pushes deeper into the cruelties of life.
| Jul 23, 2023
Thor Love and Thunder is one of the worst movies of the year. From the first frame to the last, it’s unengaging, insipid, and tedious.
| Original Score: 1/5 | Jul 20, 2023
With one of the shortest runtimes we’ve seen from Marvel in a while at only 119 mins, the much-awaited Thor: Love and Thunder is the definition of here for a good time, not a long time!
| Original Score: 5/10 | Jul 20, 2023
There may be thunder, but lightning does not strike twice.
| Original Score: 5/10 | Feb 23, 2023
Therein lies Thor: Love and Thunder‘s biggest issue, its inability to balance tone and spectacle.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Feb 6, 2023
Thor: Love and Thunder's editing routinely works against Taika Waititi's film, often undoing the emotional work the film is attempting to deliver.
| Jan 9, 2023
Taika Waititi and Chris Hemsworth leaned heavily into the more goofy aspects of Thor: Ragnarok. Thor: Love and Thunder piles on the jokes, bathos and stupidity until the film feels more like a parody of the MCU rather an addition to it.
| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jan 5, 2023
