A cocky surgeon with poor personal skills (but a champ at music trivia) gets his hands shattered in a car wreck. Seeking a cure for his nerve damage, he explores the DARK ARTS of the EAST, only to find himself newly empowered and caught up in a war between forces beyond his wildest reckoning.

Re: Doctor Strange (2016)

solid I thought. First movie i've seen in the theaters in a while and I felt old about it after seeing all the tech advances, I'll elaborate on that later.

Lots of crazy multi-verse stuff and some inception-like weirdness. I had fun.

Is three out of five stars, just above average, strong enough for an "I enjoyed it" summary?

I feel like my response was a little less warm than that, but I look back and I see I gave it 3.5 stars.

Maybe I could have given it three and a half. But definitely not four.

I go to these movies faithfully, as a favor to the ten-year-old boy that I used to be, who would have been beyond thrilled at seeing these characters on the big screen. But they're rarely as good as I'd like them to be.

i mostly enjoyed this one. Cumberbatch was perfect, and they nailed all the elements of the Dr. Strange universe, from the cape, to the eye of agamatto, to the Ditko-esque universe of Dormammu. I didn't love the INCEPTION-like visual effects, but other than that, it was spot on.

Re: Doctor Strange (2016)

I'm agreeing to the letter.

The problem is, for big chunks of the proceedings, those effects are the point of the film.
