I'd heard mixed reviews, mostly positive from the masses but a few negative ones from people with similar interests to mine. I put it on one quiet Tuesday evening and quite enjoyed it. The 'clever character' stuff was not too bad because I sort of felt that the character of Strange was pretty well-rounded and interesting, so he didn't need to represent rationality. The accepting and rejecting death stuff was mildly interesting and I didn't feel too offended by the film itself seeming to preach one way or the other. The only really annoying thing was the time manipulation amulet, which is a really dangerously overpowered ability to have, and was used in basically the worst way possible in the movie without any negative consequences despite the urgent warnings earlier on by one character. But then it was revealed to be an Infinity Stone so fair enough maybe. Still not sure what the Infinity Stones are going to come to be like in this very long series of movies, if anything.
