It’s a somewhat engaging mess, but a mess all the same.
“Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness” is a ride, a head trip, a CGI horror jam, a what-is-reality Marvel brainteaser and, at moments, a bit of an ordeal. Marvel’s most deranged and energetic movie yet, as much of a winning comeback for director Sam Raimi as it is a mega-budget exercise in universal stakes-raising. Though unsatisfying in some respects, the film is enough fun to make one wish for a portal to a variant universe in which Marvel movies spent more time exploiting their own strengths and less time trying to make you want more Marvel movies. Multiverse of Madness isn’t wildly unconventional in its story choices, but the fun it has exploring the possibilities of this narrative makes it a treat.
In the hands of director Sam Raimi, Multiverse of Madness is a marvellously assured balancing act of bizarre weirdness and affecting human drama. It's structured like this: quote first, source second.Ī violent, wacky, drag-me-to-several-different-hells at once funhouse of a film that nudges the franchise somewhere actually new. Meanwhile, I'll post some short reviews on the movie. Rotten Tomatoes: 80% (136 reviews) 6.7 averageĪs with other movies, the scores are set to change as time passes.
