Captain America: The First Avengerβ β β β βBetter than I remembered, Captain America stands out from the MCU both because itβs a war film and because the formula hadnβt solidified yet.
Doctor Strangeβ β β β βSurrealism is the best part. Creative use of Escher gravity, portals, astral projection, time manipulation, incredibly detailed alterations to reality, and effects that make it all look incredible.
Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madnessβ β β ββNot as bad as I expected, but the alternate realities werenβt as fun as the reality-bending in the first movie. And there was way too much reliance on the Idiot Ball.
Thor: The Mighty Avengerβ β β ββAmazing designs, intriguing concepts, but a plodding plot that tries to be a character piece but is required to be an action film.
