I absolutely love Dr. Strange--the first Dr. Strange film is still my favorite of all MCU films. I love his character and Benedict Cumberbatch's portrayal of him. So, I was very excited about this latest installment. It's a very fun film full of action, horror, and thrills with amazing special effects...but it has two major issues for me: 1) this film does not stand on its own very well. If you haven't seen WandaVision or at least know Wanda's stories from the comics, you'll probably be a bit confused. And then 2) I really don't like Wanda in this film. I didn't like her in any of her other appearances plus her role in this film is center stage and is darker and more evil that doesn't feel right. Her evil feels more like a selfish, out-of-control tantrum to me. A tantrum that could destroy universes? Well, Dr. Strange and the new America character makes up for it, to some degree. I still enjoyed it and might watch it again.
