We all know what Marvel does best and that is super explosive movies,with cool characters and a great sense of humor.Here though,it may have gotten a bit too much.
We have a great cast and the action hits you right off the bat.The visual effects are something else.The only thing that seemed a bit pointless and fake were those seals everyone was making,creating a magic bright yellow kind of super complex polygon that in the end was disappearing without any impact at all.It seemed like they put it there just to show something fancy.
The main actor was excellent,the drama,the suspense were very good and the ancient one was very interesting.She died though in a very simplistic way,leaving too many questions unanswered.Instead of making the best use they could of her character-and with that actor on the cast-it felt like she went to waste a bit.
The main villain was good and mickelsen is one of my now almost favorite actors but the dialogue was a bit shallow and as a villain he was a bit weak.I mean Dr.Strange was only a few weeks rookie and he could fight him almost on even footing from their first encounter,killing or pushing off his followers.OK,Strange had a talent for it but the development was too quick,which means it was also too small.
It gets a 7 out of 10.I was glad I saw Stan lee and the two after the credits scenes.They hyped me up for good!I only hoped they would use humour a bit less.It kinda spoiled many great moments in the film,making Dr.Strange looking more of a goof-like character instead of a great hero or sorcerer.And the fight against the main villain should full of awe instead of laughter,it is a marvel superhero movie after all,not looney tunes fighting off some aliens in a basketball court.
