THOR: LOVE AND THUNDER MOVIE REVIEW

Leigh: I'm really excited to talk about Jane Foster (Natalie Portman) as Mighty Thor. She gets a fantastic hero entrance. She even has the coolest score, I think, from composer Michael Giacchino, who is doing stellar work at the moment, by the way. His The Batman score... He's the next Hans Zimmer, I think.

Tim: The Batman score… pwoah!

Leigh: Mighty Thor’s part of the score is called ‘Mama's Got a Brand New Hammer’. And I loved it!

Tim: How good is the title?

Leigh: I know, loved it. The music is fantastic. It takes Thor’s theme, twists it, gives it a new spin. It's completely unique to Jane and I just loved it.

Tim: I couldn't agree more; the soundscape of this movie is so good. And Natalie Portman, like, you go, girl! You look amazing in this movie. Those guns. She absolutely owns the look.
