Christina Newland

There’s little to anchor any of it to earth, but Elizabeth Olsen does a fine job as the emotional core of the film, with a tragic backstory that actually resonates with her villainous motivations.

Rated: 3/5

AV Club

the tale translates poorly to the big screen, even with the filmmaker working overtime to inject his raucous appetite for horror into what still needs to be a PG-13 crowd-pleaser.

Rated: C-

Financial Times

If Marvel directors are often merely first among hired hands... Raimi is allowed a creative signature, delivering a family-friendly take on the chills that first made his name with 1981 cult favourite The Evil Dead.

Denise Pieniazek

Puesta en Escena (AR)

...Unlike other films in the superhero film genre, this installment is not aimed at a family audience due to its themes linked to black magic and the occult, and specifically to the chaotic and at times even violent consequences of the magic.

Rated: 6/10

Flick Feast

Had this been any other filmmaker these moments would have probably looked mundane, but Raimi’s personal touches elevate this into an alluring spectacle with some genuine sense of terror.

Cinema Elite

Much like the bizarre, quirky, and uneven “Spider-Man 3,” this “Doctor Strange” sequel has the potential to become a cult favorite of sorts. For now, though, it’s good, bombastic fun.

Gonzalo good movie aka popcorn movie Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/28/24 Full Review Jules Felt too horror-like Rated 2/5 Stars • Rated 2 out of 5 stars 10/09/24 Full Review Anthony My favorite sequel of the MCU right next to Captain America: The Winter Soldier Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/03/24 Full Review John E. C Not sure if Wanda's character was portrayed after all her evolution from WandaVision. Though Olsen's portrayal is always mesmerizing! She definitely carried the movie. Very entertaining to say the least. I pretty much enjoyed the battle scenes all throughout, though I wish we saw more of Doctor Strange vs Wanda. I think a battle between 2 powerful magic-users would have been a sight to see. They missed out on this opportunity! Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/19/24 Full Review B O I was extremely disappointed in this film, for introducing the multiverse it’s such a complex world and they barely did anything with it. You can’t call something “The Multiverse of Madness” and barely show the multiverse, doing a couple cameos and throwing in different variants of some characters and calling it there is ridiculous. I understand they don’t want to fill there film with surprises and all that but it needed more and it could have been more but they missed the mark by a mile. Rated 1.5/5 Stars • Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 07/12/24 Full Review First name L WandaVision: an allegory of mental illness, isolation, love and loss. Multiverse of Madness: Character development? Oh. Well. Nevermind. Rated 1.5/5 Stars • Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 05/05/24 Full Review Read all reviews
