Doctor Strange (2016)

 
Genre: Superhero
Directed by: Scott Derrickson
Starring: Benedict Cumberbatch, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Rachel McAdams 
Running time: 115 minutes

 


Dr. Stephen Strange is masterful but very arrogant neurosurgeon very fixated on his own vast knowledge and his prestige. After a severe car accident leaves him unable to use his hands for any precise work, Strange travels to a temple in Katmandu to find help from a sorcerer, hoping that he can gain his life back. What he finds is a battle for the ages.

A superhero film with sorcerers and traveling through time and dimensions is not really in my regular regimen. That being said, the music and the humor in Doctor Strange made this cinematic meal much more pleasing to me than I ever hoped it could be. Many lines made me laugh out loud throughout the movie. It compensated for what I see as a lot of nerdy sci-fi stuff.
