Can Sam Raimi make a different kind of Marvel movie? Find out in the One of Us crew’s Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness review.

Benedict Cumberbatch returns as the Master of the Mystical Arts (but not the Sorcerer Supreme…that’s Wong now) and boy does he have his horribly injured hands full. While attending the wedding of his ex, Christine Palmer a giant monster starts tearing up the town, apparently after a young girl named America Chavez. To his shock when he meets her, Steven realizes that he’s been seeing her in his dreams. Turns out, they aren’t so much dreams as visions of what’s going on with parallel world versions of himself.

America has the unique ability to jump through the multiverse, only there’s some unknown threat throwing monsters at her. After uncovering the villain that seeks her powers for themselves, Strange and America have to jump through parallel worlds to escape them and to find a solution to their predicament. Directed by Sam Raimi (Spider-man, The Evil Dead), this new MCU film has a very different feel to it than the rest of the films in the series, and definitely, at least by the third act, more of a leaning into horror elements.

Chris, Danni, Ben, Marco, and Wright have a meeting to determine if this Phase 4 film delivers the multiverse goods, or if it all just seems like fan service.
