I Am Thor (2015)

Too much of everything

Powerful

Absolutely the worst movie.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Been a fan of Thors since I was a kid and stumbled onto the John Fasano movie "Edge of Hell" or "Rock n Roll Nightmare as it was known in the U.S. Cheesy, yet in the 80's it was more inspiring than anything else. Thor deserves so much more respect for his stamp on heavy metal. An absolute showman and genuine person who stops at nothing.to get his art across. This movie has it's heartfelt moments ala "Anvil" and some hilarious moments as well. I tip my hat to this man who stopped at nothing to accomplish a dream. Thor's band consisting of original line-up The amazing Mike Favata on drums, New member Keith Zazzi... fit right in! And of course the sexy Rusty Hamilton! Great Great flick with a wonderful message. Rock on Thor!

I thought I knew a lot about music (and I even spent time in a band myself). So I feel kind of embarrassed that I didn't know about this band until watching this documentary. It was super late at night and I was thinking of stopping and getting some shut-eye. However, I'm glad I stayed up and watched this through until the end. It turned out to be quite the story of highs, lows, and sheer determination. No matter how bad things got, how questionable the situation, how tattered the band became, or how ridiculous a scenario was that was playing out in front of your eyes -- rest assured somehow and some way Jon Mikl Thor would face things with a positive attitude. The unabashed honesty in this documentary is fearless. Here's a person who wears his heart on his sleeve and is truly likable. And he's willing to put the good and the bad times out on display for everyone to see. No publicist filter here at all. It's actually really refreshing to see in this age of carefully scripted and curated presentation. It makes you laugh, cry, worry, and cheer. And that folks is entertainment. Bravo to Thor and all the musicians and loved ones that helped him on his journey here in midgard.

I just watched this on Netflix and I flatly refuse to believe it is a true story. The makers of this movie have pulled an elaborate prank on us and I'm very impressed. The characters are cartoons and the plot is a never ending loop of ridiculous clichés. This is Spinal Tap is a David Attenborough narrated Oscar winner compared to this movie. However, despite or maybe because of it's short comings this movie was an hour and fifteen minutes of laughter if you're into rock and roll and general goofiness check this one out.

I have seen many documentaries. I believe that I have never been so moved or enthralled by a movie. Ryan Wise has created a masterpiece. If I can make a comparison to other films that have given me so much intrigue, emotion and excitement I can mention The Wrestler or Rocky. But this is a documentary. Yet it plays like a docudrama. It is captivating. I cried and I laughed and got up and cheered. Yes I got up cheered for Jon Mikl Thor. This wonderful and amazing human being. What he goes through and the obstacles that are overcome are sheer amazement. We are having a party this weekend with my friends and we will watch this together and be inspired.
