Marvel have found a way to keep their movies new and fresh again!

Rating: 7/10 (7 April 2020)

Doctor Strange was a very unique in its style, and the powers available for the heroes. Marvel did a great job of moving the buildings in ways unlike any other movie I'd seen, other than Inception, I think Marvel did it even better. The ways the characters could run sideways along rooms or buildings, as well as jumping through time holes into new areas.
The development of Strange's character was well done. His arrogance is constantly being broken down scene after scene until he finally relents and realises that its not about him.
The CGI and camerwork was excellent. The cape that flies onto Doctor Strange was even humourous. They were able to make an inatimate object seem alive and interesting.
It was great to finally have some settings outside of London and New York. Being in Kathmandu, Nepal was refreshing. It's arrogant to think that time and time again that Superheroes would only ever be found in USA or UK. Super hero movies are more often than not set in these western settings.
The Eastern setting was a welcome change and the new cast was quirky and intriguing. Benedict Wong was funny and added a lot to the overall feel over the movie.
The casting of Rachel McAdams felt like Marvel just trying their hardest to try and get as many famous actors involved in the MCU as possible. She was a key actor and did really well. But she could've equally been an actor that was not as well known. Movie after movie, it seems like they have a man as the main superhero and then try to have an attractive, famous supporting actress to try and get more ratings.
Overall a much bigger improvement from some of the earlier movies in the Marvel universe. Doctor Strange easily becomes one of my favourite superheroes and he is full of dominating power. His story also advances the overall story with the inclusion of the infinity stone.
