Thor

The next Avengers in line, Thor made his on-screen appearance. Most heroes are either super-enhanced human, a technological expert or homo-superior but now a god comes into the picture.

By far, the movie follows quite closely to the comics from Asgard, Thor, Mjolnir, the Rainbow Bridge and even up to the costumes. Sadly Jane Foster is an astrophysicist rather than a nurse. I was hoping to see Natalie Portman in a nurse uniform. Helloooo Nurse. Each actors portrayed the character closely up to the viking speech. Spoiler, there's an quick appearance of "Stan the Man" Lee (everyone should know that) and Clint Barton aka Hawkeye.

From the comics that I read, I don't really fancy Thor as a hero. He's a god. Isn't it unfair somehow? But if you can beat the mighty crap out of him, that would be more enjoyable.So I hoping that Thor in The Avengers would be a simple win for the team.

And like all Marvel movie, there's always a post-credit scene. Do wait for it. I don't really see the resemblence to the next movie, neither Captain America nor The Avengers. We'll just wait and see.
