A breath of fresh air from Marvel

Rating: 9/10 (7 November 2016)

Dr. Strange is so refreshing for a superhero movie. I'm not saying the superhero genre is getting boring, but it makes the MCU even more interesting. This is a must watch in 3D. Usually I would never go to a film in 3D but its visuals complement 3D so well. Speaking of the visuals, the visuals are breathtaking. It reminds me very much of Inception or The Matrix. Benedict Cumberbatch is great as Stephen Strange, I can't see anyone else playing the sorcerers supreme. Benedict Wong, Tilda Swinton,Rachel McAdams,and Chiwetel Ejiofor give great performances as well. Like all Marvel films, there is a lot of comedy, but in my opinion this is one the funniest Marvel films yet. Mads Mikkelson's Kaecilius is the villain of the film and like every Marvel villain,they do their usual job of a villain and that's about it. The film felt a bit short. I feel like they could've spent more time fleshing the character of Stephen Strange out in the beginning. Other than those, I have no gripes with the movie. This is easily one of the better films in the MCU so far and I cannot wait to see more of this character.
