Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness Movie Review

Highlights include a classic cameo and some interesting universe graduates introduced and then dispatched rather quickly.

For as much as the computer technology to make the actors look like younger versions of themselves has been heralded, in practice it turns out rather odd looking. When viewing the younger version of Henry Brogan (Will Smith), it almost looks like he’s overdone the botox. There is little emotion seen. The extremely high resolution of the film does not help this anomaly either.   //   Director Ang Lee holds nothing back with the action sequences and many of them are ...
