The heavens shake as Thor fights for the survival of Asgard in Thor: Ragnarok. When Odin dies after being exiled to Earth, his daughter Hela, the Goddess of Death, is released from her prison and returns to Asgard intent on conquering the nine realms; and when Thor and Loki stand up to her they’re banished to a rogue world run by the Grandmaster, who forces Thor to fight in gladiatorial combat. Cate Blanchett is quite good as the villain, as is Karl Urban as her henchman. However, Jeff Goldblum phones in his performance and seems incredibly out of place. The action scenes are extraordinarily fun and exciting, and director Taika Waititi does an amazing job at giving the film a visually rich and interesting look. Also, the whimsical-humor works especially well, keeping the tone light and upbeat. Thor: Ragnarok brings new life to the series and shows how rich and storied each part of the Marvel Universe is.
