The Scarlet Witch is the only reason to watch this movie. This doesn't feel like a movie about Dr. Strange. It's more a Scarlet Witch movie but won't commit to either of them.

Most people can wait to see this on Disney+, and really only if you're trying to see all of the Marvel films. Don't worry though, there is absolutely ZERO horror in this film, despite everyone calling it "Marvel's first horror" or "creepy". Maybe this would be horror or creepy back in the 50's, but this is nothing, even compared to Raimi's previous works.… Expand

A messy story that seems to forget the whole point of Wandavision and Wanda's growth.

I think a lot of us were expecting something like Spider-man: NWH with more multi-versal travel, variants and cameos. We got one parallel universe, 1 dead universe and one montage. We got a handful of variants and a couple cameos of character we mostly don't care about or may never see again. The trailer ruined the best cameo.
I like how Strange's relationship with Christine was handled and wrapped up.
I liked the villain and her motives, even if a little over the top at points.
That big cameo fight was the best part of the movie.
Overall, a ok movie that could have been so much more.… Expand

It had some fun moments and interesting things to it, but what they choose for the villain and how boring were main fights - ugh, made the movie not memorable at all except for some Easter eggs bits and such.

Raimi’s direction did feel refreshing as a larger part of the MCU but not enough to override the constant cliches, conveniences, and just plain stupid actions of the characters. A small example of this is a scene I’ll describe in an analogy to keep it spoiler free. There’s a bad guy robbing a store. The clerk behind the counter tells the bad guy the other clerk is armed. The robber proceeds to shoot the other clerk. Why would you ever tell the bad guy who was armed? Stuff like this happens constantly in the film. Other complaints is that the villain was too powerful, America Chavez was heavily underutilized, the CGI seemed off (jarringly so) and unnecessary in places, and so on. C-/D+… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I won't be among those who seem to be forgiving most of the flaws of this film because it was directed by Sam Raimi, and while there are points where his influence is noticeable, this film is 100% Marvel.

As far as I can remember this is perhaps the first sequel that basically drops you into the story expecting you to be fully aware of everything that has happened in the MCU, mostly because it's the first of the films of Phase 4 that makes a connection with the Disney+ shows.

While this is something that is commonly understood by anyone watching a film in this franchise, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is one that has nothing, absolutely nothing to stand on its own.

Now the entertainment is still there, now more watered down but still effective to the degree to which it works, but I think Marvel's idea for this story was more of a tie-in for what's next and to give some fan service to their hardcore fanboys who now look desperate to see cameos from other franchises and of course ''new characters''. You'll know what I mean when you see it.

My biggest problem lies in trying to understand why they decided to make Wanda Maximoff the villain. I don't know if Marvel had nothing left for her after Wandavision and by the looks of it even with that bad ending, we won't be seeing her again for a while, if ever. A shame.
She was never given a chance to explode properly, even when she gets the spotlight here, she ends up relegated.

Good things and bad things, as with all MCU movies. Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is not a major contribution to the saga, but gets the job done to keep the audience interested and excited, however briefly.

That being said, between this film's post-credits scene with Charlize Theron making her MCU introduction, talking about incursions, which are a big deal, and those of all the other films in this phase with the exception of Black Widow, I have no idea what Marvel Studios is up to.
Secret Wars? I don't think so. Too big, too complicated.
I guess we will find out sooner rather than later.… Expand

It goes without saying there's plenty of CGI laden effects present and a fair 'dollop' of action and tense moments throughout but I admit I'm no Marvel afficiando and so I didn't really follow the various intricacies where the various characters are concerned. I felt a bit disconnected to this film compared to what I remember of the first one, due to it being so centered away from the 'real world' (in New York or wherever) and more set in the various Marvel universes, as the title alludes to. I did enjoy it for the basic entertainment value but I imagine big fans of the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe) would enjoy this more than me. Even so, I reckon this film desveres a 3 star rating at the least. Benedict Cumberbatch gives a pretty decent performance, given the script and everything. It's hardly great but it's certainly ok. If your really into these kinds of films then yes I'd say it's worth seeing, if not then perhaps not, that's about all I can say really.… Expand

I feel like this movie focused more on cameos and fan service than it did on good writing. It sort of gave me the vibe of watching pre-MCU superhero movies from the mid-2000's, back when they were noticeably cheesier.

That being said it's still a fun and visually-stunning movie. Doctor Strange is great. It's nice to see more of his relationship with Christine. America Chavez is sort of a meh 5/10 character who seems better suited for a MCU TV show as opposed to a main feature movie.

Ever since Endgame it feels like every movie - even standalone ones like Doctor Strange or Shang-Chi - have to involve some huge Avengers-level threat. I feel this is unnecessary, especially considering some of the best MCU movies (Captain America: Winter Solider) were much "smaller" movies. If every movie involves some colossal universe-level threat, then it won't feel that special when you try to assemble the Avengers again in the future. Why even assemble them at all? This is the 12th time the universe has been threatened just this year alone.… Expand

It's a good Sam Raimi movie, with Horror like Moon Knight but it doesn't fell like a Doctor Strange Movie. Also the Title "Multiverse of Madness" is wrong. This Movie is a sequel to WandaVision, that's all. The characters travel just a few times in the Multiverse and that is not even the plot. The Plot is "Wanda has to let go his Kids". And the movie doesn't have a end. Yeah it's MCU but Doctor Strange 2 isn't really a Movie. It's a "trailer" for the future projects. You should watch the Movie on Disney plus, sorry.… Expand

That’s not to say it was bad, it just hits differently: This is certainly a very "gory" movie, as far as Marvel movies go anyway. This is one of the few Marvel movies that I feel actually deserved it’s PG-13 rating (Most of them are “PG-13 for babies”). The whole film felt like a grimdark horror movie with some good ol’ “Marvel Pizazz” The first "Doctor Strange" movie treated us with some of the best visual effects in any MCU film. The kaleidoscope aesthetic was something to behold. Tragically, the kaleidoscope effects only appear once or twice in the whole movie. We did get a smorgasbord of other visual effects to feast on however, so I guess I can’t complain too much.

And, as for the narrative… It was a bit “all over the place” for me. I know that it’s a story about the Multiverse (it’s right there in the title) but the story is very disjointed, Multiverse or no Multiverse. Everything felt a bit “stitched together,” which I believe is due to a lot of reshoots. I feel like these mishaps negatively effected America Chaves’ character. This movie is the characters debut, and both her intro and developments in this movie felt rushed. Hopefully she can make some sort of recovery in later films

However, with the second half, Doctor Strange 2 remembers this is a Sam Raimi film, and the director is allowed to utilize his knack for weird, funny horror in ways that feel right at home for the director of Evil Dead. Still, even at its best, Doctor Strange 2 is a middling effort for Marvel -- coming no where near reaching the heights of Sam Raimi's terrific Spider-Man films.… Expand

I LOVED original Dr strange (right below Cpt America-not including the Avengers movies). Why? Because they told the story for what they were. No woke. No agenda behind the story. Just a great story for what they were (until later were they actually did started to do all this). Anyhow, this movie was....well a bit meh. Really I should give it a 5, but some of the cinematography, music, and SOME of the cgi was good. So, extra point. But, that's where it stops. The acting, besides Dr strange and Scarlett, was just overacted and kinda tropey. Did I mention woke? Yep, now it's not in the background-it part of the story. When this is introduced, I literally hear people in the audience either laugh (as well as I did along a "u gotta be kidding me"), snicker, or comment "of course." Does Disney not get it? Yes. We ALL know you're "woke," but does it always have to be a point of contention in movies now? Cam we just have great storytelling (and acting) without this being a thing. Did I mention? Woke. The males (including Strange) are either dumb, underpowered, or have little to no use. Girl power? GIRL POWER ALL THE WAY.....so sick of it. All the girls are apparently the strongest in the whole movie. Gotta be kidding me.... ALMOST FORGOT....plot holes KILL any sense of urgency. Shame. just wait for it until D+ streams it. Maybe then it will be worth it. So sad. I should know better than to expect anything else from disney messing with stories for agenda's sake.… Expand

Marvel's attempt to make more mature movie results in a rushed movie with forced darkness which is too dark for the typical marvel audience yet quite not dark enough for the mature audience. I will not deny that the movie has its moments but those are over way before the climax. The use of cameos has been terrible in the movie. The way Illuminati are introduced and killed is just preposterous. Whenever they tried building up an epic scene, they destroyed the intensity with crappy and cheesy jokes every time. Overall an okay film to watch.… Expand

It was hard to follow the plot and although I like strong villains, I feel like Wanda was just too overpowered. The plot wasn't the only thing that was confusing as the strenghts of the characters were all over the place: at the start of the movie it felt like that Wanda could 1v1 Thanos with all 6 stones and at the end America was able to beat her.

The ending felt a bit rushed, with some character arcs not closing off, and if you look at it as a legitimate horror movie it definitely falls flat. However, if you look at it as a Doctor Strange sequel, a WandaVision sequel, or an evolution of Loki's Multiverse crisis, despite some story threads not being utilised as well as they could be, it's a slightly spooky, family-friendly movie with a really fun premise and brilliant acting, not to mention a good step forward in the wider MCU.… Expand

Benedict Cumberbach returns as the mystical magicianFilmgoers who are not informed fans of the machinations of the Marvel universe might want to skip this one, because it delves deeply into the stories and characters from that complex world. Benedict Cumberbach returns as the mystical magician and is joined by a few other heroes, all of whom only have gestural powers, which means their conflicts have them slinging fierce rays at each other. After a fun opening sequence involving a giant one-eyed octopus, the rest of the action takes place among various types discussing the multiverse a lot. Eventually, they spend their time in a massive quantity of attractive visual effects. While the pacing never lags, the confusing mythology and noisy battles eventually merge into one long, unexciting fracas. NOTE: As usual for Marvel, stay thru the mid credits for a scene with Charlize Theron and the end credits for a cameo by director Sam Raimi's friend, Bruce Campbell.… Expand

Still trying to wrap my head around this one for better or worse. Directed by Sam Raimi (director of the original Spider-Man trilogy of all people), Dr. Steven Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) find himself thrust into the multiverse as he tries to protect a young multiverse jumper (Xochitl Gomez) from a possessed and deranged Wanda Maximoff (Elizabeth Olsen) whose Scarlet Witch persona has taken over her mind. Just when you thought things couldn't get much tripier than the first Doctor Strange film, along comes this one to throw everything that film had to offer, along with the rest of the MCU as a whole into complete disarray. This film is quite a mess, and not exactly a good one either sadly. While it surprisingly didn't overindulge on fan service too much with the exception of a very particular sequence towards the middle of the film that is sure to please several eager fans holding out hope for certain cameos, the story itself is still so scattershot and all over the place from start to finish that it becomes almost headache-inducing to follow. There's very little in the way of character/story development here as well. Furthermore, this is EASILY what I'd consider to be both the darkest and even most violent MCU film to date, with several uncalled for brutal and violent deaths that left me with a very bad taste in my mouth, as well as several frightening/jump scare moments straight out of a horror film, which makes sense considering this is Raimi we're talking about here. He's come a long way from his 'Evil Dead' films, but nonetheless manages to incorporate their atmosphere and style into this, but it just doesn't seem to fit or vibe well with a Marvel superhero film in my opinion. Performance-wise Cumberbatch of course once again nails the role he was born to play here, and even Elizabeth Olsen is in top form and creepy as hell here. Several of her scenes in particular are sure to serve as nightmare fuel for several people! Newcomer Gomez also turns in a great performance here, and returning cast members from the first film, such as Chiwetel Ejiofor, Benedict Wong, and Rachel McAdams are also great! Unfortunately, none of them really helped me enjoy this cluster of a film much more. Overall, it's not particularly inspired, and the story/concept is a mess, but it still nonetheless gives an interesting idea of what direction things might go in the MCU from here when all's said and done. Whether that direction is good or bad is beyond me though, and I still consider this a rare misstep within the MCU. It left me feeling exasperated moreso than exhilarated by the end of it.… Expand

The handover from Iron Man to Doctor Strange is not a simple transit of the trust from technoscience to spirituality: Marvel's spirituality is that of a Potter for the millennials (as well as the recent "The Batman" was a "Twilight" for the 40-year-olds), magic requires formulas, mysticism demands ritualistic arts, spells and sorceries must be carried out with ridiculous maneuvers of arms and hands that have nothing to share with naked and pure magical thinking. In parallel, the phantasmagoric explosion of the Raimi's staging corresponds to a miserable impoverishment of the motivations of the characters reduced to a spit, this time the entire multiverse is at risk because of a woman unable to live with the parental mourning of her two children. And the most terrifying thing about the film is the conclusive judgment expressed: "Sometimes, I do wonder about my other lives. Yet I remain grateful in this one, even with its tribulations." They always believe they are saving the world with their superpowers by renouncing to change it for the better: Disney opposes the Eleventh Thesis on Feuerbach and divulges dystopia.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It's been a while since I've had mixed feelings with Marvel movie.

The action was well done, CGI looked believable and Doctor Strange himself was still to my liking.

The horror aspect was a poor choice to me. For a franchise that has been appealing to mainstream and approachable to all this will definitely impact how many people want to watch it.

However, the bigger problems for me were elsewhere. Pacing of the film felt weird but it's hard for me to describe why. The multiverse was also seemingly full of plotholes and oddities that were annoying. How some of the characters were treated was also bad choice in my opinion.

And here comes the spoilery part of the review in case you accidentally opened this review. I don't know is the success of MCU Infinity Saga and a greed resulted by that or is it just trying to appeal to the most HC Marvel fans but there have been way too many cameos lately. Be it the X-mens, Daredevils, Kingpins or Venoms the urgent need to make every Marvel related movie or series ever created relevant to the MCU is a bad choice that makes the already excessive "list of movies and series to watch before seeing this Marvel movie" even more ridiculous. Here the cameos were also mostly brought in to be killed off nearly instantly and it felt poorly executed.

All in all the movie left me surprisingly cold even through I have loved MCU and Doctor Strange before. Because of the horror aspects I don't think I ever want to see it again even though I didn't actually hate the movie.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The movie was well interesting, to say the least.
1. Firstly Strange arc was pretty damn weird in the movie to what his arc was shown in avengers first dr strange and nwh tbh. 2. Wanda's situation is similar to Strange's. We understand that she is evil because the Darkhold has corrupted her, but we don't understand why she decided to use the book or if she knew the consequences of doing so. If she knew it would corrupt her, why did she do it? And so on there are a lot of answered questions. And goes contrary to what she learned in Wandavision
3. Next American Chavez was too interesting. There wasn't much character to her and we did not get who she is and what motivates her the movie is just 126 min and am sure they could have added another 5-10 min to explain her character in much more detail.
4. The direction of the movie too was meh tbh and story was more or less flat.
5.The movie was hyped way too much, a lot was shown in the trailers there was just too much hype and the movie failed to reach the hype

Anyway that's my opinion enjoy the movie and have your own opinion :)… Expand

My brother whispered the plot of "WandaVision" to me during the movie, so that I could understand it. I really hate that we now have to have a Dinsney+ account to follow the Marvel Movies. That is a really greedy move, and if that continues, I'll be very pissed. The pacing felt really off. The first half was way too fast, Wanda as a villain felt really odd. The plot, America and Wanda's evilness all came out of nowhere. Wanda was a good villain because she was a horrifying threat, but her motivation felt so half-assed. And do Americans not feel stupid when they create a character that is called "America" and shoots stars?!
The fights were good though. Especially the one with music notes (you'll know after you watched). And I liked the Illuminati, but a lot of viewers don't even know Black Bolt.

I was impressed by some of the action scenes. I did like the scarlet witch too. But I thought she did not have a good ending. I did not like how they killed off the illuminati. I know there is a multiverse but it kind of annoyed me. It is a bit too cheesy for my liking. I also don't think there was enough multiverse. The post credit scene brings this movie from a 4 to a 5.… Expand

It was just okay. It wasn't anything to amazing in my opinion, the cgi was fine but noticeable when used. I liked seeing Wanda be the villain but I didn't think the movie really added a whole lot to the MCU. The pacing kinda sucked. The movieIt was just okay.

The pacing kinda sucked. The movie felt long and drawn-out. Good fights with interesting moves. Didn't really feel the horror aspect others did.

Good movie to watch once, but definitely never again.… Expand

Its a refreshing view of marvel since it's all now childish and pg 13
At least some heros bit the dust. It was filled with amazing scenes and suspension
Unlike the washer up marvel movies. I hope we got more raimi movies

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The reveal that Wanda was the villian in the plot was lackluster and confusing since I didn’t watch WandaVision on Disney+ and her motivations made no sense. She wanted to be with her imaginary children that existed in a different universe?? Not to mention the amount of inconsistencies of character’s actions; very disappointed but not surprised since Marvel is declining when it comes to quality nowadays… Expand

Gostei bastante da história, o cgi poderia estar melhor mas não me incomodou
