Hello all! I know this isn't what I usually do here, but hey, this blog is still new, we have time to experiment. And after seeing Doctor Strange, I just got so excited I had to talk about it with somebody, and you guys are always great to talk to. Oh, and don't worry, there's no spoilers here. So here we go!
Alright, so my initial reaction: Ahhh!! It's awesome!!! I love this movie! Doctor Strange has made me excited about the MCU again!
Ok, and here's what I think after some thought. The movie was definitely awesome and I still love it. Some of the visual effects were a little off, but with the massive amount of visual effects in this movie, who am I to judge? Like, seriously, this movie is insane! I stayed after the credits to see all the people involved in creating the visual effects. Dang...
So on the topic of visual effects, they were really really cool. When the trailers for Doctor Strange first came out, I thought it would be kind of like Inception. This movie goes way beyond what inception did. It's so mind boggling awesome. The effects definitely made the fight scenes super different and interesting. Speaking of fight scenes...
The fight scenes. These scenes were some of the best fight scenes I've seen in a superhero movie. Why? Because it's so different. I think something Captain America Civial War showed me is that we're starting to get really tired of the same old rehashed action sequences, the same old "punch punch, fight fight, cut cut". Doctor Strange is different. There were a lot less cuts than traditional fight scenes, and with all of the dimension hopping, time bending, and world molding, the fights never cease to be interesting. Its original and cool, something very different than the tired gift formula we've seen with the Avengers movies. Since its been announced that strange will be joining the avengers, let's hope more fight scenes like the ones presented in this movie will make their way into cinema.
Tie in to the Avengers. I think this movie shows that Doctor Strange could easily be a good addition to the Avengers. He has a different perspective and different talents and powers that I think the Avengers desoeratly need.
This movie was very different than all the other marvel movies. It was also a great break from all of the huge teams, huge battles, and huge cast. It was really nice getting to get to know a few select characters and getting to have battles between only a few people. The small scale was extremely refreshing, and it was really nice to get to see how the characters interact with each other more. And the best character was the cape, just saying...
So all in all, Doctor Strange is a great movie. I would definitely put it above Civil War. Is it perfect? No, but it's different, refreshing, super cool, funny, and fun. Yeah, some of the jokes are pretty great :)
Alright, that's all for now. Make sure you go see Doctor Strange! You'll be glad you did. Have a great day guys, and I'll talk to you later.
