Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness—now out on Disney+—represents a welcome return to bold filmmaking for the increasingly cookie-cutter Marvel Cinematic Universe. Or does it?
We discuss director Sam Raimi’s signature kinetic filmmaking, how the movie short-changes its title character, and whether Wanda Maximoff’s motivations make sense.
We also dissect our contrasting opinions about the first Doctor Strange film, speculate why the MCU is so risk-averse, and what we can expect from Thor: Love and Thunder and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.
