If you suspend beliefs, great effects, interesting story.

I have a hard time with these movies. Completely weird with the mystical in the comic scifi genre. I like movies with witchcraft, and weird things, but this was hard for me. PLus, I never knew much about Dr Strange, and he intruded in my all time favorite Marvel title, The Micronauts. He was out of place. So, I am a little biased. Plus, I always have issues mixing the physical superheroes with the mystical ones (back to Micronauts, science vs mystical).
I only watched because it will play into the upcoming Infinity War. However, I give major props to the special effects. And over all story line too.
The one drawback I found, was his learning and training were so rushed through. I think, and I know they don't like to do that in movies today as to lose the audience, but another good 15-30 mins could have been spent on his training alone. I mean, this is something that would have taken years, and they blew through it in like 10 minutes. he spent more time trying to find the supreme, then actual training it seemed. Not a whole lot of explanation IMO as to the whole sorcery thing.
However, a very good flick to watch. Especially if you have HD and big screen. Definitely want to watch it on that.
