Doctor Strange, with the help of mystical allies both old and new, traverses the mind-bending and dangerous alternate realities of the Multiverse to confront a mysterious new adversary.
panchoasno - 2 January 2023 Horribly bad movie If you want to watch Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness go watch Everything Everywhere All at Once instead, that movie is what this movie wanted to be and a 100 times more, that is legit the best film i watched this year, and happens to have a similar premise, it actually does everything this movie wanted to do but does it properly to drive a plot. This movie is so absolutely terrible that I rather start by recomending other movie than talking about the movie itself.
Now, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is a incoherent mess that requires you to watch a tv show beforehand that is good up until the first half ends, then it becomes also a bad watch, so to watch this movie you have to watch a bad tv show that had potential but didn't use it properly. Now, after you did that you go see this movie and whatever happened on that show is now somehow not really relevant for the character development of Wanda, somehow she didn't learn her lesson.
If Tenent tried to make a movie without a main character, this movie is how to make a movie without a plot for most of the movie's lenght, it was an incoherent, uncreative mess in terms of the scenarios it does, throw in a bad example of a solar punk dimension, thow in a bucketload of references and other uncreative settings of this "multiverse" and you will experience a absolutely boring movie, now after Wanda learns again that what she is doing is bad for a second time and the movie wraps up, it doesn't, now for some reason Dr Strange grows a third eye setting up another movie.
This movie is yet another failure of Phase 4, the only 2 salvagable things of phase 4 are Loki and maybe Spiderman 3.
