By Ana Calderon | Doctor Strange was released Oct. 20. Doctor Strange is the 14th of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The movie stars Benidict Cumberbatch as Doctor Strange, Chiwetel Ejiefor, Tilda Swinton and Rachel McAdams. It was produced by Marvel Studios and Walt Disney Motion Pictures.

The movie is about when Stephen Strange, a neurosurgeon, suffers a tragic accident that damages the nerves in his hands, ending his career. Christine Palmer tries to help Doctor Strange as much as she can with his depression but Strange pushes her away. Strange notices Jonathan Pongman; a man who was paralyzed and suddenly started walking again. Strange now is convinced he can gain his abilities as well, when Strange looks more into Pongman he is referred to Kamar-Taj. He then meets a whole different world filled with sorcerers, one of them whom is Ancient One, the Sorcerer Supreme. Strange becomes interested in this world, he asks Ancient One to teach him her ways.

Doctor Strange is the perfect movie for Marvel fans, people that are into superheroes movies and also for action lovers. I loved the tension between a hero and their enemy. It is still showing in theaters around town.
