In the movie, Thor is stripped of his Asgardian powers and faced with a guy of fairly equal size had a difficult time getting past him. So, he's down to human norms. He's still a giant brute of a guy, so that has to be taken into account.
Maybe so, it's been awhile since I saw the movie, I remembered him kicking a lot of ass on his way to find Mjolnir and cry though.
He did however take down a squad of special forces soldiers on his own, without any weapons.
Yeah, that.
