Doctor Strange Reviews: 10 Big Things We Learned
1. ...But Not Where The Visuals Are Concerned
Speaking of five star experiences it has been unanimously agreed across each and every review that the visuals in Doctor Strange attain a perfect score. Since the release of the first trailer the use of magic and city-folding craziness has looked like a manic blend of Harry Potter meets Inception. The inventiveness in the footage released so far has left us all in a state of anticipation and thankfully it was well worth it.
In fact The Hollywood Reporter use the same comparison, stating that the visuals "take their cue from Inception but go far beyond it in visual spectacle.” Better than Inception is music to the ears of any film fan as love or hate that particular Christopher Nolan outing, the visual are undeniably spectacular.
The Daily Beast goes on to describe the film as being "the most dazzling technical achievement of the franchise whose visual delights are worth the ticket price alone.
Words like 'glorious' and 'impressive' are used liberally and praise is heaped high on the depiction and use of Doctor Strange's powers and their application here in live-action so whether a dull story or not the visuals sound like anything but.
