Review of Doctor Strange (2016) by Marco A — 12 Mar 2018
Despite all the enthusiastic comments, I have to admit I don't find Doctor Strange a masterpiece. Along with Thor, Strange is definitely the Marvel character I like less - I refer to MCU since I've never read any Marvel comics.
All in all the character portrayed by Benedict Cumberbatch isn't that bad, but the screenplay is very very weak. I don't know the comics, as I said before, and I believe that this character is enjoyable mainly for Marvel fans.
Anyway I give it a passing grade because the effort is remarkable, visually is astonishing and the actors did a good job (Cumberbatch above all).
Scott Derrickson (writer and director) passes from horror b-movies to a surprising Sinister and, eventually, to MCU. Noteworthy.
