Doctor Strange Reviews: 12 Early Reactions You Need To Know

There are some fans who will still be shaking themselves at the very idea that a Doctor Strange movie even exists. Don't believe me...?

And it's a pertinent sentiment: even a couple of years ago and on the trajectory that the MCU was headed, it looked like any magical element to the franchise would be difficult to introduce. But they've only gone and done it, and marvellously for fans of the comics, they haven't dragged the source through a mangle to do so either.

This is not a small revelation: though Marvel Studios are keen to stuff in as many Easter Eggs and fan service, they do have a track record of changing the source material. And while lots of fans wanted to see a Doctor Strange movie, there was a pretty firm caveat that it had to be one that paid homage and was faithful to the comics.
