SlashFilm's Peter Sciretta also thinks it's the best Thor film thus far, and was one of many who praised its score.
The Wrap's Umberto Gonzalez said 'it absolutely rocks,' People's Kara Warner said "it was so much fun I almost can't take it", entertainment journalist David Daniel called it a "goofy good time", and Yahoo's Kevin Polowy said it was director Taika Waititi doing what he does best.
Entertainment Reporter Germain Lussier praised Tessa Thompson's performance as Valkyrie in particular, and was echoed by Collidor's Haleigh Foutch. CinemaBlend's Eric Eisenberg called the film "a ton of fun" though self-contained, while Forbes' Scott Mendelson said it was "slight, but wholly entertaining."
