I haven't been following the Marvel films, but I'm a big fan of Benedict Cumberbatch and Sam Raimi, so off I went to my favorite Las Vegas theater to check this film out. Even though I didn't know the Doctor Strange backstory, it was worth every penny. The CGI is the best I've ever seen, Danny Elfman's score is perfect, the entire cast is outstanding, and there are lots of cameos to enjoy (Bruce Campbell). Sam Raimi has always been one of my favorite directors and he really excels in this one.

I think this film really raises the bar for future superhero movies. Yes, it is that good!

Oh, it's bad. Almost BIRDEMIC bad. Horrible acting, cheesy CGI, and a storyline full of holes. The only redeeming qualities are that is unintentionally funny at times and it is mercifully short.
