If only DC could learn from the Marvel movies. Here is a fun superhero movie that knows you don't have to be dark, serious, and three hours long to be good. This is a colorful fun romp of a film that does a good job of not taking itself too serious. Unlike the first Thor this one manages to balance the comedy and more serious moments more seamlessly. I really enjoy the Marvel movies but I never see the same one twice. With new ones coming out twice a year there's not enough time to re-visit the old ones on Bluray.

I'm not a fan of the TV show though. You have to draw the line somewhere.
