Doctor Strange is a visually interesting movie whose value lies solely in a completionist desire to stay current with the MCU. I was impressed enough with how it looked to see it twice, and I don't think I've ever re-watched a movie with so little to offer the second time around. Benedict Cumberbatch's American accent is perhaps the most distracting I've ever heard.

There's nothing necessarily wrong with Doctor Strange as a movie, it just failed to capture my attention. I liked exploring the concept of sorcery since it hadn't been done in the MCU before, and the trippy visuals were engaging. However, I finished the movie feeling neutral towards the character. I knew he would be playing a huge role in the MCU going forward, but I just couldn't bring myself to care.

Doctor Strange is a fantastic addition to the MCU and the first time were are truly introduced to magic in the universe. Love the growth Strange shows throughout and the fight scenes are still some of the most inventive the MCU has ever had. Looks terrific.

I wasn't sure whether I'd like Doctor Strange or not going into the movie, but it definitely exceeded my expectations. The visuals were impressive, Benedict Cumberbatch plays an incredible Doctor Strange, and although it felt very different from the other Marvel movies before it, that works here.

Doctor Strange is a trip.
In keeping with the more trippy and outlandish power set of the future Sorceror Supreme, the movie has incredible visuals that give it a unique style and flourish.
The standout actors conveniently hold the roles of the primary protagonist and antagonist, Benedict Cumberbatch as Stephen Strange and Mads Mikkelsen as Kaecilius. They are joined by several great performers who round out the cast and add further depth.
However, despite everything the movie does right, it does feel somewhat out of step with the rest of the MCU. As the genres have expanded, and Phase 4 has taken the MCU in dozens of directions, it may sit more comfortably in the eclectic catalog, but as far as the Infinity Saga goes, it didn't quite resonate.

Doctor Strange isn't just a visual ride, but a wonderful exploration of pain and healing. From Strange to Kaecilius, the movie asks how we should handle pain, how best to recover, and should we let these experiences define us. Not to mention one of the most creative conclusions of any Superhero movie.

Story-wise, Doctor Strange is far from my favorite MCU movie. As a character, he's the one I'm least interested in exploring, and that's not entirely the MCU's fault. As a comic book fan, I was never particularly engaged by his inclusion in stories, so seeing this movie the first time around was solely because it was the next chapter of the MCU. The movie, however, is gorgeous to watch. I appreciate that Doctor Strange's use of various magic gives his movies a distinct look and set of visual effects. The team that made the world turn inside out, upside down, and crystalize should absolutely be commended for their work.
