There wasn't much doubt that Benedict Cumberbatch would absolutely nail the role of Sorcerer Supreme, and he characteristically delivered in one of the MCU's most consistently enjoyable origin stories to date.

Yes, you can bleat about the movie basically being Iron Man Redux until the cows come home, but the character has his own unique brand of arrogance and psychological turmoil to deal with that makes his transition from brilliant a**hole to mystical superhero all the more rewarding.

With a sharply-defined character who engages in jaw-dropping action while keeping the potential love interest in the periphery, Doctor Strange comfortably ticks all the Marvel boxes with few complaints.
