Doctor Strange

It’s been 7 days since doctor strange has released and I have spent 3 of those evenings in a theater. You will ask, is it that good or I am just crazy , honestly it’s a bit of both.
Doctor Strange is a Superhero film, it is part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). The film is directed by Scott Derrickson(known for directing horror movies) and stars Benedict Cumberbatch, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Rachel McAdams, Benedict Wong, Mads Mikkelsen, and Tilda Swinton. Doctor Strange is story of a magician, who jumps into a magical cauldron unknowingly. Benedict Cumberbatch loves playing intellectual characters he just has to be a know it all, even if it’s an animated character case in point Penguins of Madagascar. It’s sort of the same character here in the beginning, but it all changes as the movie picks up the pace.
Dr Strange brings an exciting level of humor, if I have to compare it to a marvel movie it’s kind of like Thor and Guardians of the Galaxy. I never read any Doctor Strange comics and if I am not mistaken, he has never been featured in any animated movies either but that didn’t affect my enjoyment of the movie. I am sort of tired of World Threatening situations in movies, it inflates the movie and don’t let it breath, but it makes sense in Dr Strange as he is the protector of the Multiverse. I will end this with, I will be disappointed in this movie doesn’t win the Academy Award for best Special effects, it’s a visual treat.

Big Hero 6

Right now a lot of people might thinking if this is the first Animated superhero movie but it's not. How can you forget The Incredibles, I mean how?  

Big Hero 6 is a 3D computer-animated science fiction superhero-comedy film by Disney. Inspired by the Marvel Comics superhero team of the same name, the film is directed by Don Hall and Chris Williams. Big Hero 6 is the first Disney animated film to feature Marvel Comics characters, whose parent company was acquired by The Walt Disney Company in 2009.

Visually this movie is beautiful, it takes place in San Fransokyo, a mixture of San Fransico and Tokyo. It added a nice touch to the movie it looked pretty. Being a fan of architecture, I really liked this hybrid city.

It's a revenge story, a certain character gets killed, a group of unlikely heroes gets united to avenge him, nothing new. Till the 2nd act this movie is pretty good, the comic elements just worked seamlessly. The 3rd act was actually predictable for an adult but kids will eat it up.

This movie tried to shove emotions down our throat several times.  Being a kids movie it cannot have a dark ending I get that but their solution to get around that was kinda too convenient. The one thing which I really liked about this movie is the fact that, the voice actors are unknowns. Not even for a single second I tried to figure out who voiced the characters, trust me that can be distracting.  

Kids will enjoy this movie for sure,  for adults this is worth taking your kids to the theater but avoid if you will be watching it alone.
