Thor: The Dark World 3D
Marvel’s Thor returns in this post-Avengers battle to save Earth and all the nine Realms from a shadowy enemy that pre-dates the universe itself. Chris Hemsworth returns to the hammer, alongside Tom Hiddleston's Loki, Natalie Portman, Anthony Hopkins and Idris Elba under new director Alan Taylor (TV's Game of Thrones).
In the aftermath of Thor (2011) and The Avengers (2012), Thor fights to restore order across the cosmos. But an ancient race led by the vengeful Malekith (Christopher Eccleston) returns to plunge the universe back into darkness. Faced with an enemy that even Odin (Hopkins) and Asgard cannot withstand, Thor's task will reunite him with Jane Foster (Portman) and force him to sacrifice everything to save us all.

Reviews & comments
Variety
pressThis robust, impersonal visual-effects showpiece proves buoyant and unpretentious enough to offset its stew of otherwise derivative fantasy/action elements.
Total Film
pressMarvel's man with the mallet does all that's required of him in a breakneck sequel that's never dark for long.
Time Out
pressThis is a grander, pacier film crammed with sprawling prog-rock landscapes, masked elf armies and giant spaceships over Greenwich.
The Guardian
pressThanks to Hiddleston and Hemsworth's impressive collective charisma, [this is] far from a franchise killer.
Hollywood Reporter
pressToo much hammer time, not enough fun, except when Loki's onscreen.
Empire Magazine
pressAs confident and assured as its lead character, Marvel's great run continues.
A total fantasy of breathtaking size and scale.The scenes and colours work well to create a range of different worlds.It is darker and more creative than the first one. Marvel/Disney once again created a top rated viewing experience.The story could be a bit light for some.
Thor : The Dark World Chris Helmsworth yet again crosses realms to see his grilfriend, I mean to fight the forces of evil. I enjoyed the playful onelinners sprinkled in between the action and plot. Much like a true graphic novel, this played heavily on the extra ordinary lives of Thor & those around him. I was reminded a lot of 'Fantastic 4' and 'Ironman'...
The second post-Avengers Marvel movie. It's not the awesome movie Iron Man 3 was, but Thor: The Dark World is solid superhero entertainment. Thor was a fun and enjoyable comic book adaptation. There's more action and special effects than the first movie. Chris Hemsworth is extremely likeable as Thor. Tom Hiddleston is also great as Loki. After The Avengers...
When you’re part of the Marvel stable of films, I wonder how much anxiety there is with the release of a film that falls under its label. Each film by itself has proven successful, and with a unified universe, it has an element to it, which will draw audience members in for a healthy box office performance. I’m not saying a film, which falls under Marvel,...
Didn't expect much and wasn't let down. Did have a giggle a only 2 points when Captain America was on screen and when Thor hung up the hammer on the coat peg. Tried to do too many genres.
To be honest, I was pretty bored through most of Kenneth Branagh's first ‘Thor’ movie. Mind you, he had the unenviable task of laying all that other-worldly groundwork and introducing all those not-Norse-gods-but-alien characters. This time Alan Taylor’s at the helm, and he’s directed episodes of some of the best shows on TV - ‘The Sopranos’, ‘Mad Men’ and...
