It's alright...
It's not what I expected, concerning that I'm not as great a lover as I once was of Marvel films. Doctor Strange, well I always thought that he was a bad guy, and this film does give the impression that Steve Strange is pompous twat... but that's about it.
Basically, he's a talented surgeon who is a massive egotistical twat, drives like a dick and gets into a crash where his hands are ruined for work and it's like ohhhh gosh no, what a shame.
So he pisses everyone off around him trying to get them fixed, and ends up in India attempting to get them fixed by amending cells and shit. But nah bra, it's magic. Magic from a bald Tilda Swinton, who I believe is meant to actually be played by an Asian person.
She's actually a little annoying in it, and so is Benedict Cumberbatch. All these amazing actors... doing a mediocre job.
The writing is a tad messy, and there's a chance that they've compensated for it with all these visual effects, but I'm not complaining. I liked all the space scenes.
It may just be the character of Steve Strange, he's so unlikable sometimes... just like Tony Stark, no wonder they appear in comics together.
And maybe it's just me, I'm not a big fan of Marvel films anymore, and I think it's because they make me cringe a bit. Like, I think I'm the only person who really does not like the new Spiderman that much.
I never realised Aunt May was actually eligible to be a AILF all along.
Ew.
Go see it is you're into good soundtracks which run for like 3 songs throughout the whole film. And go see it for some varied funny lines. And go see it if you're really into a film which tries so god damn hard...
Sorry.
Bob wins all for the last half of 2016 (see the review before this).
