Thor: Ragnarok (2017)

Thor: Ragnarok (2017) is a thrilling blend of action, comedy, and adventure in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Directed by Taika Waititi, the film follows Thor (Chris Hemsworth) as he faces his most dire challenge yet: the prophesied destruction of his homeworld, Asgard, known as Ragnarok.
After being imprisoned on the distant planet Sakaar, Thor discovers that his powerful sister Hela (Cate Blanchett), the goddess of death, has returned to claim the throne of Asgard. She swiftly defeats Thor and destroys his hammer, Mjolnir, forcing him into exile.
On Sakaar, Thor is captured and thrown into a gladiatorial contest overseen by the eccentric Grandmaster (Jeff Goldblum). There, he reunites with the Hulk (Mark Ruffalo) and forms an unlikely team, including his estranged brother Loki (Tom Hiddleston) and the fierce warrior Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson). Together, they plot an escape to return to Asgard and stop Hela’s reign of terror.
The film culminates in an epic battle on Asgard, where Thor realizes that defeating Hela requires unleashing the destructive power of Ragnarok itself, brought forth by the fiery demon Surtur. With humor, heart, and stunning visuals, Thor: Ragnarok reinvigorates the franchise, marking a pivotal moment in Thor’s journey as a hero.
