# Real life.

Loki's story was definitely the part of the film most worth watching, I guess my problem is that I just can't divide it from the rest of the movie. As Lex says in the clip I linked in the post, 'Every villain is only as great as his hero', and for me Thor was sadly lacking in this respect...

Sorry, that was putting it a bit slapdash, mostly because at least in the context of SV I can't see Lex as a clear-cut villain either; IMO he's a truly tragic figure there. What I meant is that for me in the context of the movie Loki lacked a true foil. He was the only character with a more complex motivation and while I liked that, for me in some ways it just didn't connect enough to the rest of the plot. He had a lot of potential, but the story as a whole let him down.
