DOCTOR STRANGE IN THE MULTIVERSE OF MADNESS: IS IT WORTH THE WATCH?

By Ella Choe

In this new 2022 movie, Doctor Strange travels through multiverses to protect his newest companion America Chavez from Wanda Maximoff, the deranged Scarlet Witch trying to steal America's powers. A murderous Wanda tries to take her powers to make alternate realities, allowing her to see her sons in other realities. Will Doctor Strange be able to save her or face the ultimate consequences?

The director of this movie, Sam Raimi, was famous for his previous movies called The Evil Dead and the first Spiderman trilogy. Raimi is mostly known for making horror movies because he loved all the possibilities in the horror genre. He directed this movie because he was thrilled with the first Doctor Strange movie and after his incident with directing Spiderman 3, which was a movie that he thought would do wonderfully and it did.

The main characters in this movie are played by Benedict Cumberbatch, Xochitl Gomez, Elizabeth Olsen, and Benedict Wong. In the first Doctor Strange movie, the only actors out of these four to make an appearance were Benidict Cumberbatch and Benedict Wong.

This movie does not have an official age rating yet but the Motion Pictures Association says that this is an official PG-13 movie. And according to the IMDB, over 150k have voted this movie to be an average 7.5/10 but out of all the people who have watched this in the US, around 86% of people enjoyed it. Personally, I would rate this movie the same.

If you enjoy watching action, adventure, and horror movies all in one, then this is the movie I definitely recommend that you see it!
