Predicting The Rotten Tomatoes Scores For Every Upcoming Marvel Movie

10. Doctor Strange (71%)

Predicted Critical Consensus: "Benedict Cumerbatch and a strong supporting cast bring magic to the Marvel Cinematic Universe with solid success, even if Doctor Strange's middling plot can't quite match its outstanding visuals."

While it's reasonable to be a little skeptical of director Scott Derrickson (The Day the Earth Stood Still, Sinister) helming something so much more expensive than anything he's worked on before, Marvel have had a tremendous amount of success so far nurturing lower-profile directors into the tentpole arena.

Plus, what's been shown off so far suggests it's going to be one of the most aesthetically interesting Marvel movies to date, and Cumberbatch is one of the most reliable A-listers working today, so it's hard to imagine the film being less than solid even if the script is perhaps a little more uneven (it's been written by Derrickson and his frequent collaborator C. Robert Cargill).

And then there's the fact that actors like Tilda Swinton, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Rachel McAdams and Mads Mikkelsen round out the cast. What's not to like?
