This was an unexpected yawn. The first Doctor Strange-movie surprised me with how good it was. The character Doctor Strange is one of the least interesting ones of the Marvel Mcu's big league, but that movie worked because of a good story.

This time, the story is a complete mess. A lot of waving of the hands to summon CGI. Elizabeth Olsen and Cumberbatch are both good but they can't save this. I just found all plot lines kind of blah.

Top of mind, this is my next to least favorite MCU-movie so far (beating Shang Chi). Still, it's not a complete train wreck but it's not worth more than 4 stars.
