Almost didn't see this movie due to the reviews.
Best marvel movie, even better than No way home.
Best character development in a marvel movie.
Best villain ever. Better than Thanos. More menacing and raises stakes.
Most serious marvel movie. More serious than endgame.
Best marvel character. Shuri is amazing. I didn't like her before but she's now my favourite character.
Best action in a marvel movie. Not a cgi headache, actual good fight scenes with real stakes and depth.
Best soundtrack ever. The theme when black panther shows up made me cry. So so so good.
It really saddens me to see negative ratings, Every movie besides no way home and avengers has been mediocre and we finally have a stunningly perfect movie but no one can see it. Can't wait for future audiences to realize this was a severely underrated movie.

So... This is a good film. A great film. It has a crazy amount of action and the action is incredible. The CGI is kicked up to such heights that it sometimes surpasses Endgame. If you go expecting Dr. Strange and his cool powers, you get Dr. Strange and his cool powers.
If you... suddenly expect certain characters to show up because of the trailers then you'll be disappointed. I'd say the trailers revealed 90% of the surprises. At least to me.
That's not to say the film's surprises aren't spectacular. There's one particular character that shows up that made my jaw drop because of what I've seen in the what if series if you've watched that.
The thing is the villain in this movie was incredible. I've never seen a marvel movie make a villain this scary before. Even green goblin doesn't match. But the whole time I was expecting some new crazy twist that would make me get up from the chair and cheer and it didn't happen. I was expecting something I hadn't seen from the trailers and it distracted me from appreciating the movie's finer details and gifts.
There were some emotional moments that failed to affect me because I was too busy waiting for the whole universe to be ripped open and a thousand alternate universe avengers to descend and save the day and give me the bliss and joy I had been expecting. It didn't happen.
This is a Dr. Strange movie and that's that. But looking back I realised it was a top tier movie by itself. There were some genuinely tense moments followed by real consequences, and real impact. It gave me that old school comic book vibe of anything can happen. I was thrilled.
The action was so colorful so beautiful. Ever shot could have been a wallpaper. There are so many strange crazy things that happen in this film that make you feel like you're on a roller coaster but like I said if you're expecting this movie to be basically an avengers movie you won't get that.
The film was a 7/10 because of my disappointment. If I hadn't watched the trailers it would have been a 9/10.
Also Wanda is in this. A lot. So might wanna watch wandavision before this.

Use my post to express your thoughts.
1. Filmmaking perfection. The pacing of the movie is incredibly tight and top notch. A roller coster from the very start to finish. Immersive directing choices like the perspective of MJ as spiderman is swinging with her and how scary it feels. Things like making green goblin very scary. I didn't expect that. I was more tense than I was during winter soldier.
2. Tom Holland is the best spiderman. Yup, a crazy take. I was a die hard Tobey fan, I laughed at people who didn't think he was the best spiderman. That would've been true before this movie. After watching this, I have been converted. The last two films failed to showcase Tom's skills in being Peter Parker. I got those Civil War hype vibes from this no way home Peter Parker. You guys remember? Remember how everyone was blown away by how good Tom Holland was? Well here, you can see it. Tobey doesn't have the humor. The kid like nature. He seems so adult. Andrew is too much like a kid, too teenagey and broody, not heroic and 'friendly neighborhood' enough. Tom Holland is like a nice mix of the two. I was confused after walking out of the cinema. Was Tom Holland just as good as Tobey? By the time I got home I realized the undeniable truth. No, Tom Holland is the best.
3. Good use of fan service. This movie is still a 9/10 even without the use of fan service. SO THAT SAYS A LOT. Very good film on its own. With the fan service, it elevates this movie to be the best Marvel movie ever. The extra characters are used for the story, they're not just there to be cool and gather applause.
4. This movie is story driven not action driven. A first for marvel.
5. Hilarious. The comedic moments are extremely funny. The trailers tricked me into thinking it was going to be awkward humor. I remember laughing out loud audibly. I have never done that in a cinema. I mean, I laugh, but I hold it in usually. But this time, I couldn't.
6. Action scenes are so so good. It was Infinity war level good. The trailers tricked me again. I thought the action was going to be mediocre just like in Far From Home. Nope.
7. Zendaya and Ned are finally good characters. From the first two movies, they've been pretty much DLC NPC characters that I never really cared about. Now I see that without them, Peter Parker is nothing. I mean I knew that, I'm just saying this time I FELT that.
That's all I can say without spoiling anything. I love this movie so much. It is so unexpected. I never give 10/10 to movies. Not even Interstellar. It's hard for me to express what I feel without writing an essay. I'll say this, I'm going to extremely upset if the final IMDB rating for this movie is less than 8.6. I don't think it deserves any less than that. Please please let it at least be higher than Endgame.
