Doctor Strange

As a huge Marvel fan, I had to watch this movie as soon as I found the oportunity to. And once again, I can honestly state that I'm not the least bit disappointed in their work.
Bildresultat för doctor strangeDr. Stephen Strange is a worldly recognized surgeon, until the faithful day when he damages his hands in an accident. Loosing the capabality to perform surgery, he desperately searches for a cure, and when at the end of his wits, stumbles upon a hermit in Himalaya who goes by the name The Ancient One. Being taken beneath the Ancient One's wing, Stephen Strange learns about powers he could never have imagined existed.
The special effects were absolutely magical, as always when discussing movies made by Marvel. The only thing bothering me slightly when watching the movie is the whitewashing in it (an English speaking man travels across the world to Himalaya, only to find another caucasian to lead him through a spiritual journey). Otherwise I can't find a single complaint about the movie, but that might also be because I love both Marvel and Benedict Cumberbatch (seen in the movie in the role of Stephen Strange, but most famous for his role as Sherlock Holmes in the tv-series Sherlock).
Have you seen the movie? If so, what did you think, and if not; based on the reviews and the general information you've read on the internet so far, are you going to?
I would higly recommend the movie to anyone interested, to every Marvel-fan, and to anyone who wants to find a new perspective on personal strenght. May very well be a new personal favourite!
