3. Thor: Love and Thunder (2022)

Film synopsis: “Thor embarks on a journey unlike anything he’s ever faced — a quest for inner peace. However, his retirement gets interrupted by Gorr the God Butcher, a galactic killer who seeks the extinction of the gods. To combat the threat, Thor enlists the help of King Valkyrie, Korg and ex-girlfriend Jane Foster, who — to his surprise — inexplicably wields his magical hammer. Together, they set out on a harrowing cosmic adventure to uncover the mystery of the God Butcher’s vengeance.” – IMDb

Cast: Chris Hemsworth as Thor, Natalie Portman as Jane Foster/The Mighty Thor, Christian Bale as Gorr the God Butcher, Tessa Thompson as King Valkyrie, Jaimie Alexander as Sif, Taika Waititi as Korg (voice), Russell Crowe as Zeus, Idris Elba as Heimdall.

Thor: Love and Thunder has found itself positioned in various spots on MCU worst-to-best lists, but for us, its humorous and entertaining elements secured its place as the third best in the MCU Phase 4 cinematic lineup.

Admittedly, we might be a bit biased, considering Thor is one of our favorite Avengers (second only to Wanda Maximoff, of course).

What sets this movie apart for us is its perfect blend of humor, action, and heartfelt moments, creating a refreshingly enjoyable experience. Beyond the entertainment value, the film carries essential messages about the power of teamwork, empathy, and perseverance, imparting valuable lessons to the audience.

As we journey alongside our beloved Asgardian hero, Thor: Love and Thunder resonates on multiple levels, offering both lighthearted amusement and meaningful themes that contribute to the richness of the MCU.
