Doctor Strange: Multiverse of Madness
Doctor Strange: Multiverse of Madness
Generally, I'm pretty easy to please when it comes to movies. I love anything that is exciting to watch and also anything that I'd be willing to go out of my way to either see again or recommend it to someone and watch it with them in the process. I remember seeing the original Doctor Strange back when it was first released in theaters and it absolutely blew me away with itself altogether but also because the visuals were and are still phenomenal. Doctor Strange: Multiverse of Madness is much the same but adds enough to the equation to allow it to stand on its own. I don't want to go too far into detail about the plot just in case anyone hasn't seen it yet, but I would strongly recommend watching this one if you're both a fan of this particular universe and obviously a fan of Doctor Strange in general.
Even back when the original movie was released, I already sort of knew just based on what I knew of the character that I would enjoy it. Has everything from mind-****ery to a story that makes you think from time to time, and really does a nice job at allowing the viewer to experience it instead of expecting certain things to happen. Hell, the first movie and Multiverse of Madness did an excellent job in creating an experience that I really don't know where it was going to go. And that's what made it even more exciting.
Doctor Strange: Multiverse of Madness is one of those movies where even if you haven't seen the first movie, this one is still worth every minute. Though I would strongly recommend that you not only watch the first one, but be sure you're a bit more up to speed with marvel in general because, as we've seen in a lot of marvel movies and even in Doctor Strange, there are little details you wouldn't know unless you were familiar with Marvel and the franchise altogether. So, honestly you'd probably enjoy this one more if you know enough about what's going on. But again, to each their own. Like I said, I could easily enjoy this movie even if I wasn't a big fan of Marvel in general. It's just a spectacle to watch, and a fun ride at that.
I don't give this movie as high of a recommendation that I would give a lot of other movies out there, but it's definitely worth seeing at least once just for the fun little easter eggs and the visuals. Oh, and Benedict Cumberbatch.
