Synopsis
The great halls of Asgard have fallen silent since a new king has overtaken the throne. His name is Loki, son of almighty Odin, brother to the Thunder God, Thor. Once a powerful trickster — the God of Mischief — Loki now rules a grand kingdom with little regard for its subjects. His only thoughts are focused inward, toward the origins of his own pain and suffering. To quell his torment and to gain the respect he feels he so rightfully deserves, Loki must now execute the prisoner chained deep within the dungeons of Asgard, the one man who has ever shown him love. His own brother.

My Take on the DVD
This was a great DVD.. For any fan of Asgardian lore, this movie will draw you in and keep you engaged from beginning to the end. The artwork alone was amazing and you felt like the comic itself was jumping off of the page for you as a reader. The plot was strong and you can see why Marvel continues to draw huge crowds when they put a movie up.
I also have to commend the voice actors in this DVD as they too did a great job at selling the movie. The voices attributed to Thor and Loki alone were perfect (in my thoughts).
All-in-all this was a great film and one that I would recommend to any comic fan!
