Reactions To Thor: Love and Thunder
Thor: Love and Thunder is absolutely AMAZING. It blows every other Marvel movie out of the water and doubles down on the Ragnarok charm.
-Therese Lacson, Collider
The best entry in Phase 4 behind Shang-Chi and No Way Home.
Kirsten Acuna, Insider
There’s a lot of unhinged, unrestrained, completely out-of-the-box lunacy in Thor: Love and Thunder that I’m still shocked they snuck in and got away with. And BLESS UP that they did.
-Courtney Howard, Fresh Fiction
WAY more comedy than drama. It’s basically silly.
Emmanuel Noisette, The Movie Blog.
I laughed. I cried. Then I laughed and cried some more, in that order.
-Kirsten Acuna, Insider
Bursting with so much heart, emotion, and sincerity, I teared up, I smiled from ear to ear. This film is a warm hug and plea to cherish the present, live in the moment do something that matters. I adore this film!
