Recent Marvel adaptations have a strong ambition about them. Sure they
have great visual flair, but what does that get you? More importantly
they’re seeped in powerful themes, possess potent motifs, and have
characters that assume a position in society where transformation is
inevitable — be it either for better or for worse. Immutability isn’t
what these “superhero” films are after. They promote character
development, character’s battling with their conscious, and character’s
who are vigorously passionate for someone or thing. Nolan’s two Batman
films, Favreau’s first Iron Man and Raimi’s first two Spider-Man movies
know that human nature is vulnerable because of the depredations
humanity is likely to encounter. All the characters who embody their
given hero are casual citizens of planet Earth. What makes
Thor
intriguing (huge props for Hemsworth’s screen presence and
vulnerability) is its main character is from a place of unearthly,
mystical enchantment yet still is susceptible to being led astray only
to encounter elements we mortals experience daily.
