Over dramatics Done Right
Slow Start (0 more)
Hilarious and Brilliant
This film is what I'd consider slapstick humor that's been deeply influenced by the dark humor we've all grown to love. Although this film has a slow start and the tendency to loss many at the begin while you make your way through the starting storyline the overdramatics throughout is truly what makes it the brilliant piece it is. For anyone who enjoys the classic action cop film this is a humor they will either appreciate or hate depending on where you truly land on the scale of dark humors. I guarantee that if you truly love dark, twisted humor as I do then you will love this film and won't be able to walk away with anything less than a silly from on your face.

Rekindled my love for Marvel movies
Before this came out I was feeling like Marvel movies were in a rut. They just all started feeling the same. Then boom Ragnarok. It was fun and humorous. The action was still there. Sometimes the humor was forced but otherwise it was really funny.
Really made my excited for Marvel movies again.
