Thor: The Dark World (2013) | Nattosheru Review [ENG/SPA]
Hello superhero lovers. Today I want to talk about the sequel and direct continuation of "Thor", as well as the eighth movie of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Produced by Marvel Studios and distributed by Walt Disney Motion Pictures, this sequel to the famous superhero managed to surpass its predecessor at the box office. Although its success was remarkable, the critics at the time were very mixed, praising on the one hand the special effects and the incredible performance of Chris Hemsworth and Tom Hiddleston, but also criticizing both its story and its villain. Among other well-known actors, this film features Natalie Portman and Anthony Hopkins. Another superhero movie full of action, fantasy and adventures with the beloved Thor, the God of Thunder (but the one from Marvel Comics).

Hola amantes de los superhéroes. El día de hoy les quiero hablar de la secuela y continuación directa de “Thor”, como también la octava película del Universo Cinematográfico de Marvel. Producida por Marvel Studios y distribuida por Walt Disney Motion Pictures, esta secuela del famoso superhéroe logró superar en taquilla a su predecesora. Si bien su éxito fue notable, la crítica que obtuvo en su momento fueron muy mixtas, elogiando por un lado los efectos especiales y la increíble actuación de Chris Hemsworth y Tom Hiddleston, pero también criticando tanto su historia como a su villano. Entre otros actores conocidos, esta cinta cuenta con la participación de Natalie Portman y Anthony Hopkins. Una película más de superhéroes repleta de acción, fantasía y aventuras con el querido Thor, el Dios del Trueno (pero el de Marvel Comics).

Plot
The film begins shortly after the events of "The Avengers" movie with Loki chained in front of Odin sitting on the throne of Asgard where he is on trial for his war crimes he committed on Earth. On the other hand, Thor finds himself with his old war buddies in a battle with some marauders in order to maintain order with the Nine Worlds. However, when he arrives home, he learns that an event that has been happening in the universe for thousands of years will soon take place. This event is called "The Convergence", which is an exceptional alignment between these nine worlds.
When this event occurs, several portals appear that connect with these Nine Worlds, of which one of them takes Dr. Jane Foster to another place, after leaving in search of his father who is missing and with certain problems. Thor, upon learning of this, goes in search of Jane to Earth, where she appears as if nothing, after 5 hours missing. She is upset with him when she sees that they have not seen each other for years and unleashes a supernatural power. With this, Thor takes her to Asgard in search of help to see what is happening to her, whereupon Odin, her father, tells her that she has the Ether in her body, which is a source of energy that can cause great wear and tear and destruction in the universe.

Trama
La película empieza poco después de los sucesos ocurridos en la película “The Avengers” con Loki encadenado frente a Odín sentado en el trono de Asgard donde lo juzgan por sus crímenes de guerra que cometió en la Tierra. Por otro lado, Thor se encuentra con sus antiguos compañeros de guerra en una batalla con algunos merodeadores para así mantener el orden con los Nueve Mundos. Sin embargo, al llegar a su casa, se entera de que pronto ocurrirá un suceso que hace miles de años sucede en el universo. Este suceso lo llaman “La Convergencia”, el cual es un alineamiento excepcional entre estos nueve mundos.
Cuando esté evento ocurre, aparecen diversos portales que conectan con estos Nueve Mundos, de los cuales uno de ellos lleva a la Dra. Jane Foster a otro lugar, luego de salir en busca de su padre quien se encuentra desaparecido y con ciertos problemas. Thor, al enterarse de esto, sale en busca de Jane a la Tierra, donde aparece como si nada, luego de 5 horas desaparecida. Ella se molesta con él al ver que llevaban años sin verse y desata un poder sobrenatural. Con esto, Thor la lleva a Asgard en busca de ayuda para ver qué le está sucediendo, con lo cual Odín su padre le dice que posee el Éther en su cuerpo, el cual es una fuente de energía que puede causar un gran desgaste y destrucción en el universo.
Trailer & Review
Below, I will leave you the trailer of the movie:
Before I give my opinion of this film, which I have seen very little, actually, compared to the previous seven films I have discussed from Marvel Studios, I want to point out the criticism this sequel got at the time. When it was released, many thought it was "the worst superhero movie" of the franchise, until the following sequels arrived to change their minds. Compared to the first installment, this film has a very dark tone, as well as a story and a villain that does not really stand out. Although the humor is noticeable in certain moments, it is not so outstanding, compared to the following installments of the God of Thunder.
Honestly, while Chris Hemsworth and Tom Hiddleston's performances are very standout, especially Tom's part as Loki in showing us what many at the time could say was a transition from being a very dangerous villain to a resentful and regretful older brother on the inside. We also get to know a little more about the feelings they both have, as well as certain moments in which we can easily feel susceptible to them. On the other hand, the appearance and participation that the villain has in this movie is one of the things that I disliked the most, as I feel that he didn't have a convincing enough development or introduction.

Antes de dar mi opinión de esta película, la cual he visto muy poco, en realidad, en comparación con las anteriores siete películas que he hablado de Marvel Studios, quiero destacar la crítica que esta secuela obtuvo en su momento. Cuando se estrenó, muchos pensaban que era “la peor película de superhéroes” de la franquicia, hasta que llegaron las siguientes secuelas a hacerles cambiar de opinión. Y es que, en comparación con la primera entrega, esta cinta cuenta con un tono muy oscuro, además de tener una historia y un villano que no destaca mucho, en realidad. Si bien el humor se nota en ciertos momentos, no es tan destacable, en comparación con las siguientes entregas del Dios del Trueno.
Sinceramente, si bien la actuación de Chris Hemsworth y Tom Hiddleston son muy destacables, sobre todo por la parte de Tom como Loki al mostrarnos lo que muchos en el momento podríamos decir que fue una transición, pasando de ser un villano muy peligroso a ser un hermano mayor resentido y arrepentido por dentro. También podemos conocer un poco más de los sentimientos que ambos tienen, además de ciertos momentos en los que fácilmente podemos sentirnos susceptibles con ellos. Por otro lado, la aparición y participación que tiene el villano en esta película es una de las cosas que más me han disgustado, ya que siento que no ha tenido un desarrollo o una introducción suficientemente convincente.

Among other things, the special effects are another detail to highlight, as it has very good visual effects and CGI, much better than many Marvel Studios movies that have recently come out. And this can be highlighted, above all, in the battle scenes. The soundtrack is very good, too, with a dark and heavy style, conveying a much more dramatic atmosphere than the first one and much more than the following parts. But, away from all this, not much is going to stand out about this film, starting with the fact that its protagonist is one of this server's least favorite superheroes.
If I were to mention something I really liked about this movie it was the ending, which I really liked and gave way to the third Thor movie. And Loki was a character that, as always, has stood out quite a bit in this film, where we can see on several occasions a side of this controversial character that we have not seen before. Finally, I must mention that seeing Anthony Hopkins playing Odin in this sequel is imposing, as he keeps very well the role of King or Father that he shows from the beginning, also Natalia Portman stands out much more in this film, having part of the leading role in certain moments, but not as much as in the following films.
Personally, I give it a rating of 8/10 as far as the action, fantasy and superhero genre is concerned.

Entre otras cosas, los efectos especiales son otro detalle a destacar, ya que tiene muy buenos efectos visuales y CGI, mucho mejor que muchas películas de Marvel Studios que recientemente han salido. Y esto se puede destacar, sobre todo, en las escenas de batallas. La banda sonora está muy bien, también, con un estilo oscuro y pesado, transmitiendo un ambiente mucho más dramático que la primera y mucho más que las siguientes partes. Pero, lejos de todo esto, no es mucho lo que se vaya a destacar de esta película, empezando por el hecho de que su protagonista es uno de los superhéroes menos preferidos por este servidor.
Si fuera a mencionar algo que me gustó mucho de esta película fue el final, el cual me gustó mucho y dió paso a la tercera película de Thor. Y es que Loki fue un personaje que, como siempre, se ha destacado bastante en esta cinta, donde podemos ver en varias ocasiones un lado de este controversial personaje que no hemos visto antes. Por último, debo mencionar que ver a Anthony Hopkins interpretar a Odín en esta secuela es imponente, ya que mantiene muy bien el rol de Rey o Padre que demuestra desde el principio, también Natalia Portman destaca mucho más en esta película, teniendo parte del protagonismo en ciertos momentos, pero no tanto como en las siguientes películas.
Personalmente, le doy una calificación de 8/10 en lo que respecta al género de acción, fantasía y superhéroes.

Cómo siempre muy buena reseña, tienes un don para esto Natto. 🥰🙈
Muchas gracias por el apoyo que siempre das.
I like the tone of the film, thor, loki and natalie are good BUT they are not taken advantage of as they should since the base or the pillar that should be a villain for everything else to make sense is nonexistent, it is not at all the worst movie, that goes to capitana marvel 😅
Now about the amount of money, is something recurrent in many flms of the first phase that made a lot because it was a well spun story so of course people did not miss it but that does not indicate that the film was good in the case of Marvel because the best example is also capitana marvel, a lot of money and WoW is a film to forget
Returning to this film, it has its good elements because the essence of thor is maintained, honestly I have no problem with thor ragnarok because it is evolving, not even with the fat thor haha, Chris has done a great job. What makes the film fall down is that the villain is deplorable and that is what affects many superhero films, the villains are sugar and I think it is not the fault of directors or screenwriters, it is something else that forces them to show the real darkness of the stories making the final stories almost childish silly
But this film has its positive things and they are many as the attempt of dark tone and a thor more canonical to the comic book that does not fall into the absurd 😂
I agree with you, it is not the worst Marvel Studios movie, but it is true that it fails a lot in terms of the interpretation or prominence that should have been given to the villain of this story. I agree that there are several much worse movies than this one, like the one you mention about Captain Marvel (which I haven't even seen), but there are also the third and fourth parts of Thor, the latter of which was a compilation of memes with absurd moments and humor that completely ruined the movie.
That is why I say that, compared to those that come later, this Thor sequel is very well done in terms of development of main characters such as Thor, Loki, Odin and others, in addition to having a level of drama and a dark tone that makes it very attractive. Although he fails in things that he doesn't in the following (as is the case of the villain), he managed to maintain himself very well despite the time he has had.
Thanks for the support.
