Movie Review: DOCTOR STRANGE IN THE MULTIVERSE OF MADNESS

DOCTOR STRANGE IN THE MULTIVERSE OF MADNESS Director: Sam RaimiStarring: Benedict Cumberbatch, Elizabeth Olsen, Benedict Wong, Xochitl Gomez, Rachel McAdams, Chiwetel Ejiofor Marvel has been teasing the concept of the multiverse in many of their projects recently, but they’re diving in full force with Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Benedict Cumberbatch is back as Doctor Stephen Strange who first dealt with the multiverse in Spider-Man: No Way Home, and now his dreams are blurring with reality after meeting a young woman named America Chavez (Gomez). She informs him and Wong (Wong) that she has the uncontrollable power to travel from one multiverse toRead More →

It picks up moments after the events of the second film Far From Home as Spider-Man’s real identity is revealed to be of the teenage Peter Parker. His life is forever changed as now all eyesRead More →

Movie Trailer: SPIDER-MAN: NO WAY HOME

SPIDER-MAN: NO WAY HOME Director: Jon WattsStarring: Tom Holland, Zendaya, Benedict Cumberbatch, Jacob Batalan, J.K. Simmons, Marisa Tomei, Jon Favreau, Benedict Wong, Alfred Molina The highly anticipated teaser trailer for Spider-Man: No Way Home premiered last night at CinemaCon in Vegas. This came after someone behind the scences leaked a very rough looking version of it on TikTok causing Film Twitter to lose their minds. The third official Spider-Man movie starring Tom Holland looks to be the biggest one of the three following Spider-Man: Homecoming and Spider-Man: Far From Home. Here’s what we know so far.

Movie Review: DOCTOR STRANGE

DOCTOR STRANGE Director: Scott Derrickson Starring: Benedict Cumberbatch, Rachel McAdams, Tilda Swinton, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Mads Mikkelsen, Michael Stuhlbarg, Benjamin Bratt, Benedict Wong Benedict Cumberbatch is no stranger at playing characters with super egos as that is how he interprets Sherlock Holmes. He brings a similar quality to Doctor Stephen Strange. He’s a neurosurgeon in the top of his field. He’s massively rich, a music savant, and probably smarter than his own good allows. His colleague Dr. Christine Palmer (McAdams) happens to be a former flame, and there is still a spark between them. On a stormy night he cruises along a curvy road headed toRead More →
