At 29 films in, it felt like too much work to enter the MCU – but Chris Hemsworth’s latest outing as Thor turned out to be great fun
Before the film started, Waititi and Hemsworth joined the audience for a chat, which highlighted just how little I knew about the franchise.“We wanted to put Thor through more human problems and what better way to do that than put him through a midlife crisis?” Waititi said, but I wondered if a mid-life crisis would make sense without knowing what came before. “What’s the one thing Thor fans would really be annoyed by?” Waititi asked.
Suddenly the vibe shifted. Thor appeared! He had great hair, and his voice had the tenor of Richard Burton if he got put in a blender with Russell Crowe. There were psychedelic colours, there were weird monsters with New Zealand accents. Was that Enya? And was that Guns and Roses? It was like a feature-length TikTok, like a lava lamp, like a pinball machine. It was unexpectedly, almost from the get-go, deeply hilarious.
