Review of Doctor Strange (2016) by That-Comic-Guy — 05 Nov 2016

Doctor Strange, may have strange in the title, but doesn't really step outside the usual Marvel fair, don't get me wrong the film is good and enjoyable. Honestly one of the better stand alone Marvel films recently, but like I said this film is the average Marvel film, with some added advantages.

First off the best part of the film are it's visuals, the film looks spectacular, especially in it's dimension bending, and reality changing scenes (Recommend seeing the film in IMAX), the performances are all very well done.

Bennedict Cumberbatch being a great Doctor Strange, and the rest of the cast doing their parts well enough. The films ultimate flaw is, as I said, it's a little to predictable and average. The action's better than most Marvel movies, but it all feels the same, the villain isn't awful, but like most isn't all that memorable or menacing.

Doctor Strange is one of the better MCU films but still has the flaws that the rest of the MCU is plagued with.
