O.M.g.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is a good description of the movie Dr. Strange.
I just came home from seeing it, and it was AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Benedict Cumberbatch was perfectly cast as the title character Dr. Stephen Strange.
I am normally not a fan of CGI, but even though there was a LOT in this movie, it really worked, and it is amazingly well done. WOWZA...

I hope you all go see it, and as I always try to tell people, STAY UNTIL THE END OF THE CREDITS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is such a lousy entry, but I just had to tell you how much I loved the movie. :)

I don't think I will go see this in the theater sadly. I saw Magnificent 7 last night and though I should have waited to watch it at home.

I think Dr. Strange benefits from the big screen. :) I saw it on our IMAX in 3D. WoW...

I will be passing on Magnificent 7. Not a big Western fan.

It sounds great and I am happy to hear you liked it! But what is CGI?
I don't know movie lingo I guess ;-)

I think it stands for Computer Generated Imagery, aka Computer animation, aka special effects. :)

Not lousy at all! I saw "Dr Strange" today, too. I knew little about the story as I didn't read comics growing up. However, Cumberbatch, Rachel McAdams and Tilda Swinton were perfection! I cannot rave enough about the special effects! I'm still asking myself ... How did they do that! I concur ... stay for the credits ...

HUGS!

I didn't read many Dr. Strange comics when I was a kid, but I do remember a few. I was more Superman and Fantastic Four. lol...

I hope I can still catch this in the cinema. Judging from the trailer and posters, it's one of those films that looks so much better in a theater.

I wish I could jump over my shadow and watch it when it comes to our cinema. I adore Dr Strange as Character and the one version of the movie from the late 70's (when I remember it right) was really cool. But I am highly displeased with BC in the role as Dr ;___;
They had the chance to cast so many others but no they choose him (I am still convinced they did it just because of the name).

But from what I saw picturewise it looks really awesome. Especially Mads Mikkelsen *-* He is one reason to consider watching it. And personally I am fine with The Ancient One being a woman. (omg it is Tilda so all arguments are invalid).

I have stumpled upon a very intersting hate post for this movie and I had a hard time not to laugh because I had a hard time accepting that these are arguemnts people have and things they believe.
(I am not posting the link here because I am not the one who likes such arguments but that was just another example how people lose their good reasoning and make an elephant out of a fly x_X)

Not a BC fan, huh? I am not a huge fan, but I do like him, and I thought he fit into the character pretty well.
Who would you have preferred in the role?
Mads made a great villain. I kept looking at him all through the movie thinking, who is that/why do I know that face? I just looked at his imdb page, and the only thing I can think of would be Casino Royale, otherwise I don't think I have seen his work.
WOW, that much hate for a movie? That sounds like a waste of a lot of energy. :o
