An outrageous, slapstick-y Marvel adventure has Chris Hemsworth in the best relationship with ‘his ‘Stormbreaker.’ A slim tale is propelled by some splashy set-pieces and an appealing cast, including Tessa Thompson, Christian Bale, Natalie Portman, and Russell Crowe (once ‘Noah,’ now Zeus). There’s really much more to explore than what’s on tap here, as themes are really skimmed and not much on the line. As the amusing bite of his ‘Thor Ragnarok’ isn’t accessible from multi-tasking creative helmsman Taika Waititi.
