As the Avengers and Guardians alliance on Titan enact their plan to distract and then incapacitate Thanos in order to remove the Gauntlet from his hand, Doctor Strange conjures one of his most famous spells from the comics.

The Crimson Bands Of Cyttorak incantation sends red coloured bands of energy out of Strange's hands like whips to bind Thanos, and it's clearly a strong spell as he struggles to fight Strange off even before Mantis dulls his brain.

In Infinity War, the Bands look just as they traditionally do in the comics.
