Our take on Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness

Sam Raimi directs this 2022 fantasy adventure in which Doctor Strange, aided by mystical allies both old and new, traverses the mind-bending, dangerous alternate realities of the Multiverse to confront a mysterious new adversary. Raimi brings his taste for the eerie and the kinetic to the material, tilting the superhero template toward something closer to horror-flavored spectacle. It suits viewers already invested in this larger universe who want a visually adventurous, briskly plotted entry rather than a standalone story. If you enjoy comic-book fantasy that leans into strangeness and shifting worlds, and don't mind needing some prior context, this pushes the format into stranger, darker corners than most.
