Thor: The Dark World is, without a doubt, an excellent sequel and picks up brilliantly from, and dramatically expands on, the original. From the acting, to the FX, to the soundtrack and everything in between and around, this film delivers. Performances by all were great. Chris Hemsworth is an outstanding Thor. Tom Hiddleston fabulously portrays Thor's conniving adopted brother, Loki. Natalie Portman plays a very convincing love interest as Dr Foster. The rival for Thor's attention, Sif, comes via a marvelous Jaimie Alexander. (I do wish there had been more tension between those two, as there were times that could have occurred but did not really come across.) Of course, Anthony Hopkins as Odin is superb. And you just have to love Frigga, the outstanding Rene Russo. Others, as well, did very admirable jobs in their roles. The villains were good but Malekith might have been a bit more evil. Visual and sound (DTS-HD Hi Res Audio) on the Blu-ray is out-of-this-world. The special effects were beyond great in many cases, picking up from the first film and upping the Ante. The mix of science fiction and fantasy and magic is a difficult feat to master, but it is handled in such a way as you just accept that that is the way it is...and fly with it. Many of the battles are epic in scope and deliver the intended results in terms of impact to the viewer. Overall, this is a fantastic movie. My only gripe is not with the film, but the offering. I would have preferred Blu-ray and DVD (with digital download) rather than 3D Blu-ray, Blu-ray and digital, but that is not offered. If you are a fan of Thor and/or the Marvel Universe, do not hesitate, buy it. If you are unsure, get it anyway, Thor: The Dark World is excellent.Read full review
A must have for my Marvel Comic movies. Keeping up with television upgrades therefore, must upgrade my collection of marvel movies. I bought some blu ray and dvds. All marvel collectors would and will agree!!!

Thor is my favorite comic book character. It would be easy to put every frame of this movie and look for flaws and deviations from the books, but why do that? Some stuff just doesn't translate to movie. People take these movies way too seriously. It's just supposed to be fun and I had a lot of fun watching this movie. The Walter Simonson run is the definitive run on the Thor comic. So the fact that both movies drew from the Simonson run was an added bonus for me. Then there's Tom Hiddleston crushing as Loki again. Marvel has done a really good job finding just the right actors to bring these characters to life. It was awesome seeing the Thor/Loki/Odin dynamic up on the big screen. This movie was great and I'm looking forward to the next one.
I already had the Blu-ray in a different format but it was the Loki Slip cover sold it fully.
