He's left with a palsy that makes being a surgeon out of the question unless you mean tree surgery.īenedict Cumberbatch plays Doctor John Strange and like Tyrone Power in The Razor's Edge he goes to the mystic east to find healing with the Ancient One, a gender bending guru played by Tilda Swinton. But one night he's involved in a serious automobile crash and his physical body fails to heal entirely. He's a genius and he makes sure everyone knows it.

Doctor Strange who has a manner similar to the TV doctor named House is a rather self satisfied and smug individual. One of Marvel Comics great superheroes finally gets his turn at screen immortality.

It's very stylishly shot and edited and handsomely mounted in production design but it's the incredible special effects (particularly jaw-dropping in the climax) that take centre stage. Where 'Doctor Strange' is particularly good is in the production values. The music score has great intensity, rousing excitement and nuance and Scott Derrickson clearly engaged hugely with the material. 'Doctor Strange's' script has emotion, wit and tension and although he doesn't have the character growth one would like Strange is a well realised character and Cumberbatch has a lot to thank for that. The action excites and thrills, as well as being visually stunning, instead of being drawn out even though quite long the climax is great fun to watch (or at least it was to me). There are some really interesting ideas here, explored with thought-provoking intelligence. The story, making the most of a great innovative concept, is never dull and is told with absorbing atmosphere, exuberance and very rarely sacrifices coherence or credulity. Do think that the villain Kaecilius could have been explored in more depth, but Mads Mikkelsen is intriguingly menacing. The standout of the rest of the cast is Tilda Swinton, wonderfully mysterious as the film's most interesting character and played with relish by her.Ĭhiwetel Ejiofor has a charismatic intensity and Benedict Wong has fun and enjoyed his chemistry with Cumberbatch. Benedict Cumberbatch really makes the interesting title character his own and knocks it out the park. Had reservations about McAdams's character but not with her performance. Strange mastering magic does happen too fast, didn't buy how rushed that aspect was, and while there are a lot of fun and witty moments a few jokes felt random and out of place (i.e. Her screen time, while essential, was not large and her development was sketchy at best. Rachel McAdams does do a good job with what she has, but the character was underused and underwritten. Lets begin with the things that from personal opinion didn't quite work. 'Doctor Strange' is not a perfect film, but to me it was a thoroughly enjoyable one and is one of Marvel's best. Saw 'Doctor Strange' (although fairly late perhaps) because of liking the cast a great deal, who can argue with Benedict Cumberbatch and Tilda Swinton, and having liked a lot of what Marvel has done, something that one doesn't see people saying a lot here. Reviewed by TheLittleSongbird 8 / 10 Well worth expanding your mind for Based in New York City's Greenwich Village, Doctor Strange must act as an intermediary between the real world and what lies beyond, utilising a vast array of metaphysical abilities and artifacts to protect the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Marvel's "Doctor Strange" follows the story of the talented neurosurgeon Doctor Stephen Strange who, after a tragic car accident, must put ego aside and learn the secrets of a hidden world of mysticism and alternate dimensions.
