Thank you for your in depth look into this movie. My son really enjoys these kind of movies and they really seem to keep his attention. He has to fill me in frequently on what character is who when we watch them together. Do you have a favorite marvel movie or character?
Thank you for your comment, Robert!
I like the adventures of Doctor Strange, and even if it is for kids, I don’t mind watching it myself. I can relate to the madness and confusion because I do have Schizophrenia. I am medicated now and do not have any more episodes. When I had episodes I used to love watching movies like Doctor Strange and I still do. All the Marvel movies are great.
I like that you have news about upcoming movies at the end of your article.
Great Article
