Your bait is as bad as your taste in women...

and movies
 
Just heard from a buddy that watched it that there's way too much humor in this movie.

Really hoping he's wrong. I really need this to be another IRON MAN (2008) given that Cumberbatch is basically going to take RDJ's place as head of this franchise after IW.

your buddy could be right .
just saw this review on a uk based football forum i frequent ,might not be the target audience for the movie ,and not sure if id agree with him as ive not seen it ,but i thought it was a thoughtful review and might be worth a read
has spoilers

Hugely an origin story so Mads Mikellsen's character is no more than a plot device to get Strange from Doctor to sorcerer. Standard Marvel humour, had the audience laughing out loud in places though at times it felt at odds with the tone of the film. Doesn't go overboard in connecting to the marvel universe (mentions Rhodes' accident in experimental armour, compares their role as sorcerers to that of the avengers, his amulet turns out to house an infinity stone and in the mid credit scene Thor turns up). The supporting good guys (The Ancient One, Mordo, Wong) were well acted with slightly more character nuance than you might expect from a Marvel superhero film. Generally the visuals work well, a lot of nods to inception but also a lot of unique fight scenes and ideas

Biggest let down was Dormamu though, looked like a neon screensaver.

Just watched a YT review, they gave it a fresh score but also said too many jokes that only work half the time.

I'll be happy with half, at least it's 50% more than Deadpool connected.
 
I just watched it online. I liked it, kind of put it on scale with Ant-Man. I'll see it again next Thursday with my sister and again with friends on Saturday. Don't really want to watch it anymore after that. Good, but not great. Mid-credit scene was cool.
