Read This Doctor Strange 2016 Movie Critic Review Before Watching It On Cinema

Doctor Strange won’t be hitting theatres until November 15, but the excitement for Marvel’s next blockbuster movie is already at an all-time following positive reactions from different critics and journalists. Now the question is, “Can Doctor Strange still make this new flip of origin story exciting”? Can it score another striking smash? The answer looks YES.

Doctor Strange is considered as Marvel’s weirdest movie by far. The new hero origin movie blazes afire with impressive reviews, from its hypnotic visuals, to Cumberbatch’s performances and the origin story itself.

Critics believe that the formulaic Marvel Studios can deliver an entirely interesting big screen hit in the form of Doctor Strange. It’s the most recent proof of a great talent on and behind the screen. And just like you, I’m so excited to watch this move in the big screen. But before that, here are some attention-worthy Doctor Strange reviews that you should know before watching it.

The movie stars Benedict Cumberbatch as Stephen Strange, a very narcissistic wealthy guy who learns unimaginable things that an ordinary guy can never learn- that there’s not just single universe and that there is bunch of magical guys whose job is to protect the earth from mystical nemesis. As he is driving one night, he ended up in a road crash and lost his hands. His life entirely changed. Until he makes his way to Kathmandu, Nepal and train to be a sorcerer by The Ancient One, portrayed by Tilda Swinton. Then and there, he will be trained to be a powerful yet humble hero.

Doctor Strange boasts a decent amount of clever aspects not only in the screenplay but most especially in the trippy action scenes and visual tricks. I was amazed with the Inceptionare effects, with high-rise buildings bending themselves, but this one is way better. I love the 2001-Star-Gate-sequence-themed trippy multiverse shots, fight-on-the-wall, the upside down, jump-to-this-dimension scene and the way how the good guys use their mystical powers. Plus, the 3D has also dramatically improved. Yes, meticulous movie faultfinder like me has so many good things to say about the movie.

Praises and complements have heaped out about the social effects, too. The composer, Michael Giacchinos, whose past pieces include Lost, Jurassic World, Xmen Apocalypse And The Incredibles, also receive impressive reviews from critics because of his distinctive score.

But there are some negatives that didn’t pass by the altruistic and keen eyes of the critics.  For instance, I found out that the sense of humor is a bit out of place particularly with some of the movie’s darker tones. It also has a few classic Marvel chiches such as the better-than-average villain. But despite of these simple setbacks, the overall consensus looks great. The rest of it is all good and it feel fresh and interesting making it one of Marvel’s vivid superhero spectacle.

Now I won’t spoil the fun for you viewers! At the end of the movie, I think that it is really about what it should leave its audience thinking about. More than just a distinctive film, it is a visually spectacular superhero entertainment that Marvel fans should never miss out.

Let’s be ready to be blown away by this stunning visual extravaganza.

Scarlet Witch Will Be A “Wild Card” In Captain America: Civil War

Captain America: Civil War has just wrapped up from their filming location in Atlanta, and fans are eager to find out anything new about Marvel’s first movie into Phase 3. Last month we got to see a couple of concept art that revealed Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.) and Captain America’s (Chris Evans) team. But two characters were left out from the images; that is Marvel’s version of Spider-Man, and the recently introduced character from Avengers: Age of UItron – Scarlet Witch. For now, it’s anyone’s guess on which team the two will be on, but one of the stars might give us a clue on what her character will become in Civil War.

In an interview with MTV about her latest film “I Saw the Light”, Elizabeth Olsen revealed some details about her character’s state in the next Marvel film and why Scarlet Witch was not featured in the concept art.

 "She’s OK. She’s doing alright.” Olsen said. “She’s confused, she’s conflicted. She’s found some people she thinks she connects with, but she’s doing alright. They released images of Team Cap and Team Iron Man. She wasn’t there. She’s always the wild card. I like being the wild card."

From what it looks like, it seems that her state as a wild card will play a big role in the film considering that her powers are well beyond what other heroes can manage. But this does suggest that she will be switching sides during the movie, and whatever team she picks will have a big advantage with her on their side. As for her powers, Olsen tells MTV that Scarlet Witch will have a huge transformation in the film, which tells us that she will have a much more powerful ability than when we last saw her in Age of Ultron.

"It’s not a new hand technique per say. We’re trying to grow her movement as a whole… Jenny and I have great pride in trying to make this a huge transformation — the next time we see her — of her abilities."

There was a rumor earlier this month that Scarlet Witch will be responsible for the event that results in the passing of the Superhuman Registration Act, leading to Civil War. This was never confirmed however, but photos from the filming location show her and Captain America chasing Crossbones, who was wearing what seems like a vest packed with explosives. Whether this scene will lead to the disaster that split the Avengers apart, we’ll just have to wait and see. Captain America: Civil War will open to theaters on May 6th, 2016.

Chris Evans Weighs In On The Future Of Superhero Movies

The superhero genre is a big hit in Hollywood right now. Every year there are tons of superhero films being released. Just this year we saw the premiere of Marvel's second superhero team-up in Avengers: Age of Ultron and the last film in their Phase Two initiative – Ant-Man. There's also Fox's failed attempt at rebooting their other franchise besides the X-Men – Josh Trank's dark and gritty Fantastic Four. While some of these failed to impress the critics and the movie audiences, it's still another addition into the ever growing list of superhero films produced just this decade. Even more interesting, next year will be the release of a lot of big superhero films from popular properties such as Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice, Captain America: Civil War, Deadpool, and X-Men Apocalypse to list a few. While some might agree with Steven Spielberg that superhero films will go “the way of the western” (fade off in popularity), other artists are still optimistic about the future of the genre.

Chris Evans is one of these optimists. After all, he was a part of the rise of this genre when he played the Human Torch in 2005's Fantastic Four and its sequel. And right now he's starring in his third  solo film as Captain America, one of the most popular heroes from Marvel. He left the Civil War filming location recently to promote his directorial debut “Before We Go”, and in an interview with Collider he was asked about his thoughts on Spielberg's statement.

According to Evans, the improvement of technology is what drives the genre, as well as other types of films that makes use of this technological advancement:

“I certainly think that given the fact that technology has finally advanced, they’re always going to be looking for other films to match their technological accomplishments. Any film that can incorporate these larger-than-life characters and fantastical locations and plots, the technology wants to prove they can do it so whether it’s superhero film or fantasy in general, that’s going to surge for a while.”

He also stated that for the superhero genre to last longer, it has to be approached with something new to add to the table and keep reinventing the genre:

“In terms of superhero in general, existing properties that we know and love, it’s going to be a matter of the tone they strike. You could look at Jason Bourne as a superhero. You could take any superhero movie and if you ground it enough, if you make it real enough—that’s what I think [Captain America: The Winter Soldier directors Joe and Anthony Russo] do really well. Certain superhero movies feel like “superhero movies.” Russo movies almost feel like human stories with a little bit of superhero sprinkled in. So you might get exhausted of the larger-than-life powers I suppose, but as long as the filmmakers keep on reinventing the flavor and the approach and the tone, audiences are going to still go.”

From what it seems like, future superhero films are already adding other elements to the mix. Marvel's attempt at a Spider-Man reboot will be akin to a John Hughes film, while David Ayer compared his Suicide Squad to the Dirty Dozen. Whether this will be successful in preventing it from going the way of the western or not, we'll have to wait and see. If Evans is right, then the genre might last longer. Chris Evans will likely be moving to the next filming location for Captain America: Civil War, which premieres to theaters on May 6, 2016.

Spiderman Actor Tom Holland Has Shot His Peter Parker Cameo For Civil War

        Superhero movies usually end up ditching the mask in the climactic scenes so they can see the face of the star behind. But after the success of Iron Man where we don’t see the face in the costume most of the time, it has become the norm for other superhero movies to do the same. After all, they wouldn't want their lead to do the stunts all the time and get hurt. It can also save them some time where the star wouldn't be needed on the filming location, with the scenes being filmed by a stuntman instead. And now that stars are signed up for multi-picture deals, this method will help them keep their stars from getting tired of playing the role.

This is what happened with Spider-man, who has apparently shot his scenes on Marvel's Captain America: Civil War even before they found an actor to play as Peter Parker. In an interview with the Vulture, Spectacular Spider-Man writers John Francis Daley and Jonathan M. Goldstein told that the cameo is already done. Goldstein talks about going to Marvel to look at the footage of Tom Holland's came as Peter Parker in the upcoming film. "We hear good things," he said. "We might even get to look at the Spidey suit, which is exciting."

Even though Tom Holland has just finished his Peter Parker cameo in the filming location, this doesn't mean that he is yet to film the Spider-Man scenes. Spider-Man has been on the filming location for a while now, being played by stunt men. Tom Holland is only needed for the Peter Parker scenes, and can simply record his dialogue over the scene in a studio somewhere.

  With all this talk of a costume, one photo of the outfit is yet to appear online. There were some rumors of a fanart that became the basis of the home-made costume, but those are simply speculation for now. Another rumor that appeared was the cast list that was leaked online earlier. Daley was quick to dismiss this, saying that "We've discussed the characters, but nothing is certain yet, for sure".

Whether Spider-Man will be in the movie for an extended time or just a small cameo, we have yet to confirm. But fans definitely hope that he has more scenes than a cameo. Essentially fighting alongside the Avengers and such. What we've heard from Birth Movies Death however, is that whether a small cameo or not, his fight scene will get the fans excited, not because of how epic it is, but because of how dorky and unlikely the superhero fight will be. If it's true, then the battle will surely be one of the most anticipated scenes in Captain America: Civil War when it opens to theaters on May 6th, 2016.
