Well, I just got back from my Vacation in Australia and I was able to find a few hours to go see Dr. Strange.
Besides Sydney, being extremely expensive ($44 AU) for the Gold Package Seats, the movie surprised me. I really had little hope that this movie would be any good, but to sum it up, it wasn't that bad and I came away actually enjoying it.
What I liked:
- Does a pretty good job trying to stay true to the source material (though I am not well versed in his backstory)
- Benedict Cumberbatch actually does a pretty good job with the character
- There is a story there, it actually does have a decent flow to it
- Special effects were pretty cool
- Sound quality was excellent in the theater I was in.
What I didn't like
- Story while entertaining was a little flat
- little character development of the supporting cast - especially the villain
- Would have like to seen a little more background/history on the subvilain and Villain
I would rate 3.5/5 Stars, I think it plays it safe with its SH formula, does a good job staying true to the source material, but not afraid to add "Moive BlockBuster inserts"
