Doctor Strange is nothing like the comics, but it's fantastic. I think it's my new fave Marvel movie, and I LOVE Spider-Man. The action was creative and inventive and the resolution was smart and satisfactory, and it looks absolutely beautiful. The humor and writing are on point, but the first villain is a touch weak. I'd still absolutely recommend it.

As far as MCU movies go, it's easily my favorite. It was just a great comic book movie; It was pretty terrific all around and Cumberbatch is easily one of the main reason why the whole affair works so well. Plus the trippy visuals and more standalone-ish vibe this one gives off than some of the other films.
Also watched Hell or High Water yesterday. Great action/crime flick. A lean and mean action/crime thriller with a solid cast, punchy action, good story and a surprisingly great sense of humor behind it. Don't be mistaken that the movie is a comedy; It's really bittersweet, but I was surprised at how many scenes I laughed at in the movie.
