Doctor Strange [DVD] (English audio. English subtitles)

Good film

Got it from amazon Video for free using vouchers. Its an excellent film, and does a great job of introudcing Dr Strange to the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). It allows viewers to entertain the idea that the MCU isnt all just physical and science/technoligical/Cosmic, but there are other mystical worldly dimensions too. Benedict Cumberbatch is fantastic as Dr Strange - great comic timing when needed, and his accent isnt too bad. Tilda Swinton is great as the Ancient one, and Chiwetel Ejiofor is excellent as Mordo. Mads Mileksen as Kaesilius was also played well, though I would have liked to see more of him and his crew in action. Rachel McAdams also does well in her supporting role. The storyline is well written and executed, and it flows well from start to finish, with a perfect mix of action and adventure, story content, comedy and magic. The bonus content is really good as always - theres around an hour of extra content, including outtakes, and bloopers, and "how did they do that" and also a more thorough Team Thor part 2 - some of you may have seen it on Youtube, with Thor moving in with Daryl after Cap America:Civil war. This is a more complete set of scenes, with more humorous content throughout - lasts around 6 mins or so. Its a shame it didnt last longer, as Chris Hemsworth is hilarious, and the scenes are very well done, with Thor trying to fit in with normal life along with Daryl. Overall then, a fantastic film, with equally superb extra footage. An easy 5 stars, and more please!!!

I like Doctor Strange. Plenty of action. Plenty of graphics. Has kept me entertalned.

Benedict Cumberbatch is Dr Strange. This is a fantastic film from Marvel Studios, I am loving what they are doing with their slate. Dr Strange is the psychedelic scope of Marvel with Inception style visuals and out of this realm concepts. Ok the story isn't that original; arrogant self-centred git has a life changing event happen then goes seeking help, finds the ancient one and has to overcome his negative personality traits to gain powers and enlightenment. But it is done so well; with great fight scenes, great humour and some great acting! I would highly recommend

What a film! Thoroughly enjoyed this, a welcome relief from essay writing. Having just seen Avengers infinity war, and realising I still had 2 marvel films left to watch (this being one and guardians OTG. Vol 2) It actually helped some of the arch in infity war make more sense (not that I felt sense was needed) any how. Benedict Cumberbatch, is again, untouchable. He plays humble as well as he plays arrogance, and does the character justice. Tilda Swintan is just superb too. I’m going to watch this again later. Come on Marvel announce a sequel already!

I won't review the film itself, by now you will or will not like this film, what I will review is the 4k version, firstly there is a nice upturn in detail compared to the 1080p version as one would expect from a modern made movie but it does really feel as though this movie was made for 4k and HDR colouring as it is this that really elavates this movie head and shoulders above any previous version of this movie, is it as good or better than the 3d version... No...but this film was made with 3d in mind first and foremost in my opinion but if you have the 3d version and are wondering if you should get the 4k version to complement your collection then this is the best non 3d version to have, when you watch this alongside Antman or guardians of the galaxy ( Disney's other new 4k releases of late ), then you will see that Marvel have really put in the work on Doctor Strange where the other 2 movies I mention are well not much of an upgrade at all in truth, I must admit I didn't think much to this film when it was first released but I did enjoy this more with the added detail and colour and the sound is more powerful and more dynamic than ever before, finally while this release is being sold at £9.99 then it is worth it but if as usual Disney put this title up to 17.99 then stay away from this digital version and just get the disc, why do Disney think people would be willing to pay 17.99 for any digital version that as no menu screen or extras what so ever is behond me but at £9.99 it is just about worth paying for the 4k version

I mainly watched this because it features Mads Mikkelsen - who can blame a girl, right! Anyway, I'm not usually a Marvel/Superheros film fan, as I usually find them rather cheesy and over-the-top. However, this one was actually very good. It had a good storyline and good acting, also quite funny in places. So 'Dr Strange' is a thumbs up from me and I would recommend!

I had amazon promotions credit. This was applied to my purchase and in the end I paid £0.48 for streaming this movie. My star rating is based on this price point. Had I paid the full £4.49 I think I might've given it two stars. The movie, as is expected with Marvel these days, has plenty of CGI effects that may amaze and astound you if you are looking for this sort of thing. The character chemistry between Cumberbatch and McAdams was good. Cumberbatch was required to put on an American Accent but this detracted from the experience I feel. It wasn't great. Perhaps using an American actor or someone better at American accents would've been a better choice. The pace of the movie is good. Mads Mikkelsen was good in the few scenes that he was on, perhaps an extended version of the movie will contain more of him. Tilda swinton was herself as always. Standout character for me was the red cloak of levitation, it had a personality of its own. Also the character Wong was a good support role. He should've got more screen time. The ending was a little moot. This movie most probably serves as a vessel to introduce the Doctor Strange character. So, that the Marvel universe can use him in the Infinity Wars arc.

rien à dire..

Toujours du DC Marvel qui nous enchante. Une trame prenante et des acteurs parfaits. Images et bande son excellentes, qui peuvent servir de démonstrations. Film recommandé.

Great quality in 4K movies. Awesome movie and even better in 4K

Lo compré conociendo su estado y sus limitaciones en las lenguas, no me importó porque ya sabía que estaba en inglés. El producto estaba muy bien detallado, e incluso disponiendo de sus imperfecciones.

“Doctor Strange” è uno dei più recenti capitoli del Marvel Cinematic Universe e introduce un personaggio meno conosciuto rispetto, ad esempio, a Thor e Capitan America, ma non meno affascinante. Il percorso che porta l’arrogante medico Stephen Strange a diventare un maestro delle arti mistiche e soprattutto a mettere da parte il suo ego smisurato, trovando una nuova motivazione, è reso davvero con efficacia. Il film alterna sapientemente scene d’azione e combattimento e momenti più introspettivi, dedicati all'evoluzione del personaggio. Gli effetti speciali, soprattutto quelli che ricordano le geometrie dell’artista olandese M.C. Escher, sono spettacolari. Bellissimi scene e costumi e ottima la colonna sonora, che alterna motivi epici ad altri di stile orientale. Ottimo il cast, che ha reso sapientemente i personaggi. Veramente incantevole Tilda Swinton nei panni dell’Antico e Benedict Cumberbatch è uno Strange perfetto. Come tutti i film Marvel, dopo i titoli di coda sono presenti due scene che schiudono nuove prospettive di come si potrebbe evolvere la storia nel MCU. Molto divertente è la prima, in cui vediamo Strange e Thor e che sicuramente è propedeutica al prossimo film sul dio del tuono. In definitiva, un film avvincente e godibile, un must per i fan degli eroi Marvel. Mi sento di fare solo un piccolo appunto: l’antagonista Kaecilius - un affascinante Mads Mikkelsen - è poco approfondito, sarebbe stato bello sapere qualcosa di più del suo passato. L’edizione blu-ray è arricchita da una serie di contenuti speciali, come le tradizionali scene tagliate, i dietro le quinte, il processo creativo che ha portato alla nascita del film, la realizzazione delle scene di combattimento e così via. Molto divertente il video “Team Thor: part 2” in cui possiamo seguire Thor alle prese con problemi molto terresti, come il pagamento dell’affitto.
