Better than some but not most of Marvel's movies

Rating: 8/10 (28 November 2016)

The story is fast paced, but not to the point that majority of the viewers would not be able to catch up. Cumberbatch has made the movie more interesting, specifically with his attack on the role, by giving his character a "dynamic" and not necessarily pleasing personality. A typical Marvel's origin movie, as presented in the beginning up to the middle of the film, and still carries, just the right elements of the story, to guide the unfamiliar audience without getting into the boring, nitty gritty details. I'm not a fan though of the use of reflections and mirror images which serve as the movies' visual effects to the characters powers and illusions. This first Doctor Strange movie, delivers the same feel to Captain America's initial installment of its franchise, being an Origins movie, and with better things yet to come.
