Sometimes, WTF moments can be as pure and as captivating as seeing something on a big screen that you've never seen before: a visual achievement that leaves your jaw hanging.

It is no exaggeration to say that about 95% of Doctor Strange's action and effects-driven sequences achieve precisely this.

The film is a monumental achievement in effects, making Inception look amateurish and changing the visual vocabulary of the MCU in stunning fashion. And the best testament to that achievement is the fact that they managed to do absolute justice to the ridiculous, glorious beauty of Steve Ditko's comic book artwork as well.
