As childhood fans, superhero films turn out to be very interesting and Doctor Strange is one good example of it. This superhero film directed by Scott Derrickson starring Benedict Cumberbatch (Doctor Strange), Rachel McAdams (Christine Palmer), Chiwetel Ejiofer (Mordo), Mads Mikkelsen (Kaecilius) and Tilda Swinton (The Ancient One), has grossed over $616 million surpassing many Marvel movies to become the studio’s highest grossing solo character film.

Doctor Strange is based on a talented neurosurgeon Dr. Stephen Strange who is consumed by his work. After a tragic car accident, his hands were disabled to do even the simplest of surgeries, thus he gets obsessed to fix this dilemma. He then meets a man who had made a miraculous recovery and goes to Nepal in attempt to find a new healing process. In Nepal, he studies the ways of magic and alternate realities under the Ancient One and her assistant student Mordo. There, he is introduced to hidden world of mysticism and alternate dimensions. Doctor Strange utilizes a vast array of metaphysical abilities and artifacts to protect the world from mystical forces and what lies beyond the real world. This film was a difficult one to be directed and was influenced a lot by the comics.

Doctor Strange was a highly-anticipated film and was long time coming. The film’s cast and crew have put forth a lot of effort, telling a story which attracts a wide array of viewers. This film wonderfully gained a high position and is a total blockbuster. It delivered a thoroughly entertaining superhero origin story. Filming locations in Kathmandu, Nepal was vital to this film and suited the plot. Due to having direct connections with The Avengers, this movie was almost introduced as Strange already having acquired his powers and abilities but the director felt that it was important to have a backstory, so that the audience connect with the protagonist more. The cast acted out the movie well. The movie was a real dynamo and was full of action, fantasy, and entertainment.
