Like Ragnarok, this is a comedy. Thor is now a comedy film of a character who endlessly suffers. This film addresses that, that while he has his thunder he has no love as he lost it repeatedly.
As a film, it's rather weak. It's a very basic story and felt like it had no point. But perhaps it's just a Thor story, like watching a chapter from the Thor comics of one of his adventures.
What I liked the most was that they made Thor a father. A good way to have him regain his love and gain purpose in his life and in future movies. Also, makes the new child a candidate for the Young Avengers that phase 4 is building up. The comedy is good, I usually hate comedies but Taika is great at it. And the fighting in the Shadow Realm was very visually appealing.
The worst part of this film is Jane. And it's not that she's here but more that she's gone in just one movie. Essentially deleting her character and even the possibility of Lady Thor. This movie also lacks a bit of the charm of Taika's films, like Ragnarok had. This was more of his comedy and less of his story writing. Yet, like most of Phase 4, I cannot be mad because this is a build up to a greater story... especially the ending.
