When the movie was in go mode - this was one of the craziest things I've ever seen visually on screen. When it was not in go mode - there was waaaaaaaaay too much explaining of the backstory and the world of mysticism. It's not that it was bad. It was just ALOT to take in. There are origin stories that are amazing movies and lead to a line of enjoyable sequels and then there are origin stories that are kind of like that we need to get this stuff out of the way type movies so that there can then be awesome sequels. This movie was definitely one of those second types. And honestly, it kind of had to be. There is way too much info that needed to be put out there before you could really enjoy the character and movies of Doctor Strange. Honestly, it was one of the reasons that I never really read this comic. But I really don't want to sound like I'm knocking the movie because I did like it very much and I absolutely can't wait for sequels or for Doctor Strange (which Cumberbatch is perfect casting for) to show up in future other Marvel movie. Again - it was just alot to take in.
I would definitely recommend that people check this out. It was one hell of an enjoyable ride and amazing visually. Just be prepared for ALOT of explanation of this universe we are starting to go into to with Marvel.
