justalurkrI kept waiting for someghing that never came, though.
Joy. For the origin story of someone who quips and who clearly enjoys his own achievements, Doctor Strange was devoid of joy where his awesome new abilities were concerned. Thinking of back to Iron Man, we saw some amusing rookie mishaps, but there was never really a "yeah, I can fly" moment.
I can validate every good thing said about the visuals and the performances and what's under the cut is really a very small nit to pick.
Okay, one more picked nit: unless I missed something, there was only one Asian character with a speaking role. I was trying to ignore the whitewashing wank, but seriously? It went way beyond racebending canon characters.
Worth it in 3D
