Thor (Chris Hemsworth) is imprisoned on the other side of the universe without his mighty hammer and finds himself in a race against time to get back to Asgard to stop Ragnarok – the destruction of his homeworld and the end of Asgardian civilization – at the hands of an all-powerful new threat, the ruthless Hela (Cate Blanchett). But first, he must survive a deadly gladiatorial contest that pits him against his former ally and fellow Avenger – the Incredible Hulk (Mark Ruffalo) – and grapple with his silver-tongued adopted brother Loki (Tom Hiddleston), the fierce warrior Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson) and the eccentric Grandmaster (Jeff Goldblum).

Thor: Ragnarok is by far the best of the Thor series. Not only is Thor Ragnarok loaded with tons of action, the movie offers viewers a colorful cosmic adventure and is loaded with action. The humor really makes the movie and outstanding change from the previous editions of Thor. Plus the introduction of fierce warrior Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson) breathes life into the movie. And we can not forget Cate Blanchett as the ruthless villainess Hela. And fan favorite Loki (Tom Hiddleston) adds to drama and spectacle.
As a big fan of Thor: Ragnarok, I love all the exclusive bonus features.Considering the addition of humor and fun new characters into the franchise which brings the movie to life, I really enjoyed the hilarious outtakes and segment on charismatic Korg and the unstoppable women of the movie.And given that this was director Taika Waititi first big budget movie and a Marvel movie at that, I found the feature on his vision of the movie very enlightening.
