THOR: LOVE AND THUNDER 2D
Watchable. Half-written and fully directed by Taika Waititi, it's a low-brow comedy. The opening builds on the climate change and growing secularity - startling, spot on and evocative. The rest of the plot, with tween-like dialogue, pauperises the strong point from the commencing sequence and follows the pattern: a silly verbal exchange and a fight interchangeably. The "Event Horizon" and "Interstellar" references are great but the convergence doesn't seem to work for the disease-stricken doctor. "The Guardians of the Galaxy" characters make a cameo and are their usual selves but non-intrusive. Taika Waititi appears as Korg. And while part of the movie is raunchy, children in their early teens or below seem to be the target audience, especially in the finale. Wonderful worlds dazzle you visually, Atmos sound is perfectly clear, dialogue and music also have the spatial quality. The soundtrack is heavy on Guns N' Roses. The movie's entertaining but beside the point on a few levels. I Ioved the fact it was a comedy. Unfortunately the cancer trope and the lack of more sophisticated cultural references or Easter eggs detract from the fun. The mid-credit introduces Hercules with a weird nose shape and the post-credit entices you with the splendor of Valhalla.Yet the middle part makes a cancer death more likely.
LATTE IGEL UND DER MAGISCHE WASSERSTEIN (LATTE AND THE MAGIC WATERSTONE)
Recommended. All the animals are cute: the squirrel is the cutest but all others, even the evil ones, look cuddly. The story's rooted in environmental damages caused by redirecting water flow for one's own use. The plot is full of adventure.
