A few seconds after the movie started, upon watching the opening montage of pages of Marvel's "Thor" comic book being flicked through in high speed as if Superman was reading it, my grrl asked me a question - "Is this based on a comic book?"... I simply replied, "Yup..."... Hearing my answer, she let out a mere sigh and said... "Dammit..."... Well, unlike me, my grrl is not a comic book fan... She doesn't really like to watch superhero movies (alien movies too) because she thinks that they're ridiculous and illogical... Super powers? Invincible body? She spits on them unless there are logical explanations about their presence or origins... 

No, I didn't trick her to join me to watch the movie... I already told her before that it's about a Viking (Norse) god being thrown onto earth and becomes a superhero... Maybe it's because of the fact that we spent almost 9 hours at McDonald's at Dataran Pahlawan doing our work made her think that a midnight movie watching could be treated as a kind of reward... Well, it was indeed a reward for me since I've been wanting to see it after seeing the trailers months ago... 

Luckily, at the end the movie, she told me that she liked the movie!! Yeay~ This proves that even a non-comic fan can enjoy this movie~

THE STORY

Thor was the heir to the throne of Asgard, a magical realm located thousands of light years away from our realm, where Earth is located... Though being granted with godlike strength and brutal battle skills, Thor was extremely arrogant... Being led into a traitor's trap, he waged a second war with Jotunheim, Asgard's archenemy... Because of that, his father, Odin, stripped off his powers and banished him to Earth... Odin put a curse on Thor and as long as he continues to act harshly without thinking, he would remain a mortal on Earth... Thus, he journeyed the land with a few friends that he encountered in order to prove that he's worthy of his powers and to get back to Asgard where he belonged...
