Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2022)

We watched Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness together and spent an hour talking about what makes us heroes afterward. That kind of conversation doesn't happen often. The film gives you something real to think about together.

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness builds so carefully to its conclusion that when it arrives you feel genuinely moved. The the multiverse of consequences thread pays off in a way that's earned rather than manipulative. Couldn't sleep afterward.

I've seen Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness multiple times now and it just keeps getting better. Elizabeth Olsen's terrifying Wanda is something rarely matched in cinema. If you haven't watched it yet, clear your evening.

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness has been praised so heavily that no film could live up completely. It's an excellent film — Sam Raimi's horror-inflected direction is genuinely remarkable — but it's not the untouchable masterpiece some claim.

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness commits to a conclusion that not everyone will appreciate. I found it perfectly right — it refuses easy comfort. If you want tidy resolution you may be frustrated. If you want truth, it delivers.

I usually avoid this kind of film but gave Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness a chance after constant recommendations. Completely converted. Sam Raimi transcends genre entirely. It works as pure human drama first.

Everyone told me to watch Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness for years. Finally did and instantly understood why. the multiversal imagination is immediately apparent. Now I'm recommending it just as loudly to everyone else.

I went into Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness knowing nothing — no trailer, no plot summary. I strongly recommend that approach. The the multiverse of consequences hits much harder when you haven't been primed for it. Go in cold.

Some elements of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness show their age, but the core of it — the multiverse of consequences, Elizabeth Olsen's terrifying Wanda — hasn't diminished at all. Films this good age better than almost anything else.

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is not background viewing. Every scene requires you. Put your phone down. Sam Raimi is doing too much to be half-watched. Give it the attention it deserves.
