The fourth instalment in the stand-alone spin-off that focuses on Marvel’s Thor, Thor: Love and Thunder, was first released on 6 July and has since incited massive debate from lovers and critics alike. The film is chock-a-block with huge stars alongside leads Chris Hemsworth and Natalie Portman (making her return), with Christian Bale, Russell Crowe and Jeff Goldblum all making appearances.

While some have praised Taika Wahiti’s second directorial work in the Thor series (the first being at the helm of Thor: Ragnarok), others have greatly criticised the heavy emphasis on comedy that detracts from the earlier, darker and more ‘adult’ films. That, among plot holes, VFX mistakes and a distaste for Bale’s villain, are just a few of the many reasons some fans are divided. Others however, have lauded the leaps and bounds the movie has made in the fight for more representation—some viewers were even left in tears by the inclusion of a Maori god.
