Doctor Strange
SCORE: 69
I am thankful Disney sent Family Friendly Gaming a copy of Doctor
Strange on Blu-ray + DVD + Digital HD for a review. I do not know much
about Doctor Strange from the comics because I am not into magic, or the
occult. Why not? God instructs us to avoid it. I personally choose to
obey God over rebellion. Doctor Strange taught me the close relationship
between cults and the occult.
The special effects in Doctor Strange are insane. Doctor Strange is a
visual masterpiece where people are walking on walls, and buildings are
trying to crush them. The reversal of gravity as well as all of the
different relics they had at their disposal is amazing. Doctor Strange
promotes the concept of there being a hidden magical world behind the
real world. Doctor Strange also teaches the religious belief of a
multiverse.
The issues families can have with this thirteen and older only rated
movie are magic, occult, blood, gore, violence, profanity, and more.
Spirits leave the bodies in Doctor Strange. This movie references it as
astral projection. There are a variety of magical battles in Doctor
Strange. Characters mix martial arts with magic to become even more
lethal. There is also deception and lies in Doctor Strange. What is
shocking is it comes from even the good characters.
I enjoyed the humor in Doctor Strange. There is a thirst for knowledge
from Doctor Strange. He learns quickly even though he comes from the
medical world. He was a brilliant and arrogant surgeon who took his eyes
off the road and crashed. In the car crash he damaged his hands. Which
meant he could no longer be a surgeon. His quest for healing for his
hands led him to mystics. There he found magicl power beyond his
imagination. He also found out about an evil trying to destroy our
world.
Doctor Strange contains a ton of bonus features. Some of them are A
Strange Transformation, Strange Company, The Fabric of Reality, Across
Time and Space, The Score-cerer Supreme, Marvel Studios Phase 3
Exclusive Look, Team Thor Part 2, audio commentary, deleted scenes, and
a gag reel. It takes one hundred and fifteen minutes to watch Doctor
Strange.
I have not seen visual effects like this since Inception. Doctor Strange
goes way beyond anything Inception did. I was expecting all kinds of
nasty magic in Doctor Strange. While magic is present in Doctor Strange,
it is a tool used. So the intensity of it is not as bad as I originally
feared. I wish Doctor Strange had been humbled a bit more. It was
interesting to see how the damage to his hands continuously impacted
him.
