Not strange enough

Rating: 7/10 (4 December 2016)

Marvel has found a winning recipe, and though I do not agree that all of their movies are the, I would love for them to stray a bit further from their formula. Dr. Strange is different from the other movies in that it covers a different aspect of the universe they are working with, and it allows for some different types of actions and gags. But other than that, it's more of the same. The plot itself is not all that interesting, and the characters feels a bit too dumbed down (to the point where it seems like anyone are open to completely changing their allegiance over nothing). It was fun to watch, but it's hard to not think about the potential that is there.
The visuals of this movie is great, but mostly they consist of distorting architecture and changed gravity. There are few nuggets, with branching of hands and other worlds, and this is the kind of things that could have made this movie into something completely special. Hopefully they want to push in that direction in the future.
