I had to double check the file name to make sure I didn't accidentally watch Green Lantern again. It's the same fucking movie! It's the same fucking movie as Green Lantern and it has a 90% "Fresh" Tomatometer. Explain that one to me.
Stephen Strange is Hal Jordan, Christine Palmer is Carol Farris, The Ancient One is Abin Sur, Wong is Kilowog, Kaecilius is Hector Hammond, Dormammu is Parallax, and - spoiler alert for the post-credits scene in BOTH MOVIES - Mordo is Sinestro. The only character arc that wasn't in Green Lantern is the sentient cape, and that's only because it was in Spawn instead.
Every single dialogue scene builds to a cutesy little comedy button. Every one feels forced and artificial, but also 100% necessary, because the actual content of the dialogue is always SUFFOCATINGLY DULL. You can't even call most of it predictable, because the words coming out of the actors' mouths are just a random soup of magical babble pointing in the direction of a hero's journey. You CAN call the medical parts predictable.
How the hell did they make a whole movie about Eastern mysticism with only a single Asian character, and then also make him the comedy relief? If not for the reassuringly human trait of racism, I might have guessed this whole picture was stitched together by a well-meaning DVR. One with nothing to work with but Sherlock and Green Lantern. |
