I give the movie 4/10.
Typical special effects filled movie...but the dialogue and screen writing and characters are downright lame as fuck.
So strange as the all positive guy who went to nepal on a whim to get the miracle cure, upon reaching there suddenly act all ahhh i dont believe in this hocus pocus crap and even after seeing miracles infront of him he still acted all ahhh doesnt this dont make sense bla bla bla.
I find that hugely unrealistic.
I also dislike scenes where the unaccustomed hero played dumb and bungling all over a different culture. Its not funny, jackie chan is famous for repeating this sort of nonsense in his film, they r not funny and quite simply ridiculous except for the very first bungling character scenes in the Drunken Master.

movies tend to deviate a bit

- Yeah, the cloak bit was annoying. Than again, it was a surprise attack so maybe even it was caught unawares. Who's to say that it doesn't have a LOS and reaction time?
- Mordo was the ancient one's oldest pupil at that point, so of course she's going to say he'll be needed by Strange. Whether or not that is true is another matter.
- Strange wasn't 'barely a master' at that point. Both and Ancient One and Mordo have already commented that he was the most gifted they have seen and has been learning faster than everyone else. He just seems to lack confidence and seems to still think his broken hands are holding him back.
- He didn't nuke the villain. He bored the main bad guy with time loops to the point where he just gave up and called it quits. That's called thinking outside the box. Quite a creative way of winning.
- This isn't a martial arts action movie. Dr Strange has never punched anyone in the comics nor resorted to the same fighting style that Kaecilious was using in the movie. If there was too much fight scenes, comic fans would have cried foul. That's not how he resolved problems.
I think this was better than Civil War, which to be frank...was quite a dumb movie with great action scenes. Civil War was fun to watch, but very very stupid with even more plot holes than Dr Strange.
Edit: Err, hang on. He does fight in the comics. But only when he can't use his powers.
