One of my favorite Marvel superhero movies. The visuals are very nice, the fact that the big bad villain at the end doesn't lose in a generic fight is interesting, and Benedict seems made to play Dr. Strange just as much as Robert D.J. fit so well as Iron Man.
At the end of the day, it is a shallow movie but one that had many memorable moments. I remember many more scenes in this movie than I do from other superhero movies. While I recall the general beats from every Captain America, Iron Man or Avengers movies, they all blur together. In contrast, from the car accident to Dr. Strange looking at a recovered patient from a distance, to him being kicked out of the temple for the first time, to the Inceptionesque action sequences - I feel like I can recall this entire movie scene by scene, and that is an extremely unique trait in Super Hero movies.

3.5/5 for that quality. Had the potential to be much higher if it weren't constrained by the superhero movie format.
