Thor ragnarok review

Thor Ragnarok
The third Thor solo movie (albeit not really, given that the Hulk is also present). A very interesting tale. Thor returns to Asgard after searching for the infinity stones, to find that Loki has taken Odin's place as King. The following scenes as they travel to Earth to find Odin and instead meet Dr. Strange, are done very well. But this only leads into the main storyline for the movie, where Odin's death leads to Hela's arrival and subsequent fight with both Thor and Loki ending up on Sakar (albeit weeks apart).
The two plots where Hela takes over Asgard and Thor meets (and fights) the Hulk are done very well, with neither plot suffering from lack of attention (and the link between Thor and Heimdall serves to allow Thor to get to Asgard rather effectively). Thor planning with Hulk (and Banner, and Loki also) to escape from the Grand Master's clutches, along with the former Valkyrie was presented in a way that was easy to follow. The climax on Asgard was a quite good conclusion to the story.

(The set up from the beginning with Surtur paid off) 9/10.
