Countdown to Doomsday: Doctor Strange

from Thirty Minute Reviews Hosted by Adam Taylor and Josie May

The countdown reaches the MCU's first real foray into magic. Adam argues that Doctor Strange is one of Marvel's most visually stunning films, the Mirror Dimension, the reverse-destruction climax, a hero who wins by outsmarting rather than outfighting, and also one of its most structurally broken. Why the movie's whole arc about learning humility is undercut by a plot that rewards Strange for ignoring everyone, how that contradiction becomes the entire franchise's pattern, and why the endless lore-dumping turns a good movie into a textbook. A visually-carried 4 out of 5. Next up, things get colorful.
