(I have a feeling hardcore fans of the MCU will disagree with me.) I appreciate, for example, the spectacle and sheer amount of work that went into bringing all the previous movies to bear on Avengers: Endgame, but I don’t think it’s a terribly good film, or appealing to rewatch. I don’t want to damn Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness with faint praise, but it really is a lot more fun than most of the other Marvel movies. What unfolds is a slightly trippy, horror-lite adventure across parts of the Marvel universe we have yet to see. They have to travel through multiple universes to avoid The Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen). I really can’t say much about the plot without getting into spoiler territory, but here’s the basic premise: In Doctor Strangle and the Multiverse of Madness, we find Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) helping to protect America Chavez (Xochitl Gomez), a young woman with mysterious powers from another universe.
