From brutal to the mystical

New York gets folded like origami in ‘Doctor Strange’

For the last eight years, Marvel has always a guaranteed me anywhere from a good time to an incredibly stupendous ride at the movies. [I can’t decide which is my favorite— GuardiansoftheGalaxy or Winter Soldier). Trust them to deliver once again

Benedict Cumberbatch, to the joy of all his fans, is now a big part of the Marvel cinematic world. He is predictably good— alongside some amazing special effects!

The production design, set design, art direction, costume, make up, special and visual effects taken together was absolutely stunning and outstanding. Earlier previews showed some similarities to the “folding, construction and reconstruction” of cityscapes in Inception. But this was no copy—it went and played with the possibilities and beyond!

The best way to appreciate all this wizardry is at on IMAX—large format, three dimensional with fantastic resolution.

I also loved the plot—I feel like the writers could have written for the StarTrek [Jon Spaihts, C. Robert Cargill and director Scott Derrickson]. The latest StarTrek had the crew resolving its issue with the vil DoctorStrange resolves this issue using a clever conundrum worthy the Star Trek franchise.

Thank you again, Marvel. And yes I am excited for GuardiansoftheGalaxy2 next May.
