Odinson

Thor himself (Chris Hemsworth) was the best part of the entertaining Thor. Natalie Portman was typically good with her small role and Tom Hiddleston pretty good as Loki. Most other Asgardians (and Earth people, for that matter) were kind of one-note characters. Thor's hammer-fu felt weighty and mighty enough for the most powerful warrior of a race once believed gods. The Destroyer looked like a proper Kirby creation. We also got a first look at Jeremy Renner as Hawkeye, even though he remained uncredited.

Frost giants were disappointingly small, basically fulfilling the "faceless orc horde" role.

Good time was had by this comics fan.
