3/10
Nearly a 2-hour SNL skit

Warning: Spoilers
...Well, maybe not SNL-esque throughout the full length of the movie, but most of the film was a (poorly delivered) "comedy."

During the first scene, I wondered if I was in the right theater, because it had more of a serious tone than many of the other Marvel movies. Unfortunately, shortly after Gorr encountered his god, the seriousness tone disintegrated immediately and the movie launched into full ludicrous mode.

I rolled my eyes too often. The "jokes" came zooming by too often. Guns & Roses music was used too often. The goats screamed (way) too often.

There's too much that should have been shown, but occurred off screen. (Gorr killing various gods, for example). I often wanted more from the movie and also wanted the movie to end quickly at the same time.

At one point, I thought..."I wish I was more tired, so I could take a short nap during this movie." That's not good.

I like Taika Waititi, but he needed to switch to decaf on this project. He turned the knob past 11 to 374, (Take that Spinal Tap).

This movie was silly and stupid throughout the majority of its run time. Maybe watch this on TV when nothing else is on.
