Popcorn vs Kernel

5 Popcorns = Must see!
4 Popcorns = You'll probably like it.
3 Popcorns = Go in the morning when there are cheaper ticket prices.
2 Popcorns = Maybe rent it.
1 Popcorn = Wait for a friend to rent it and watch it with them.
Kernel = Don't see it at all. Ever.

Doctor Strange (2016)






Directed by: Scott Derrickson

Written by: Jon Spaihts, Scott Derrickson, C. Robert Cargill, Stan Lee (comics), & Steve Ditko (comics)

Starring: Benedict Cumberbatch, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Rachel McAdams, & Tilda Swinton




Loved this film.  The main reason I loved it was because it was completely different than the other Marvel films.  It wasn't just fighting to save the world, but it also had great information about how there is this other hidden universe as well as had more emotional scenes.

Dr. Stephen Strange (Cumberbatch) is a great neurosurgeon and he knows it.  He owns fancy cars, great place to live, but is rude and unappreciative of those in his life.  While driving, he is distracted and ends up in a major car accident.  Therefore he needs to undergo surgery for various body parts and in the end loses his precise hands that performed these expensive surgeries.  In order to get his life back, he begins searching for this place that healed the impossible so that way they can heal his hands.  But he gets more than what he expected.

I felt this film was very creative and was very Inception like.  Swinton was amazing and seemed like "The Ancient One."  She definitely brought that character to life.  Also this film made me like Cumberbatch way more, since I didn't like him much before.

Not much else to say about this film.  If you see it, make sure to stay after the credits...and I mean the whole credits.

5 popcorns.
