Doctor Strange Movie Review

Whenever there is a marvel movie coming out, I m always very excited. I truly love marvel cinematic universe. 
This time Marvel decided to do a movie on Doctor Strange. As soon as I knew about this I was in for it because it had Benedict Cumberbatch playing Stephen Strange in Doctor Strange. 

I just came back from watching the movie, so I thought I must do a review on it. 
Now I knew about Doctor Strange but not that well to be honest. So this movie really gave me an insight into Doctor Strange, what he was, how he became Doctor Strange. 

Doctor Strange is an origins story about Stephen Strange a neurosurgeon, one of the best in the field. After a car crash, his hands are crushed and now shake continuously. He does his best to cure them with help of all western medicines and methods, but all fail him. Now  he turns his head towards eastern treatments, where he learns about Kamar Taj. A group of people having immense powers in mystic arts. Will Strange find a way to heal his hands or his existence is for something bigger ? 

I truly enjoyed this movie. It really does well in showing how Stephen Strange became "The Doctor Strange". As it is an origins movie, it does well in explaining us everything that we need to know. 

Benedict Cumberbatch plays Stephen Strange really well. Stephen Strange's character is arrogant, witty and smart which Benedict Cumberbatch pulls off effortlessly. We are so used to see Benedict as Hero, whether it be Sherlock or The Imitation Game. This makes Doctor Strange an easy watch. I cannot see anyone else pulling off Doctor Strange better than Benedict Cumberbatch. Coming to Tilda Swinton, she does an really good job in portraying "The Ancient One". Tilda Swinton has this mysterious aura around her which suits the role perfectly. Even other characters in this movie have done a great job. I loved them all. Rachel McAdams and Benedict had a really nice chemistry with each other. I would love to see them together in more movies. 

Coming to the drawbacks, The movie sometimes is a bit off when it comes humour. But it is really nitpicking. I did not find anything in particular bad about this movie. I enjoyed this movie and you might enjoy it as well. 

Doctor Strange is definitely Worth a Watch. It is entertaining plus it has Benedict Cumberbatch. What more do you want?!

And also one thing don't forget to watch the end credits scene before leaving the theatre. 

 A Must Watch !!!

Eternal Love : Ten Miles of Peach Blossom (2017) - Chinese Drama Review

Poster Credit : to the owner Recently I have been so busy that I don’t get time to watch many dramas but then I came across few clips of Eternal Love: Ten miles of Peach Blossom and I decided to watch it as it intrigued me. It was my best decision as it was so good. Bai Qian is a princess of Qing Qiu a Fox Tribe, with the help of Zhe Yan she becomes a disciple of Mo Yuan, God of War. After a devastating war, immortals pay a huge price to seal the Ghost lord of Qing Cang. 70,000 years later, Bai Qian in attempt to re-seal the Ghost lord loses her memories and is send to mortal realm and there she meets Ye Hua, Crown Prince of Nine Heavens. And their love story begins. So hard to write summary for a fantasy drama as you don’t want to give too much away. The world created in this drama is so beautiful and magnificent to watch. But more than the world building, the characters are important as you cannot fall in love with a fantasy world without good characters in it.

Full House Thai Drama

photo credits: to the owner  I still remember the feeling I got by watching one of the famous Korean drama Full-house , which was utterly amazing. I had completed that drama within two days. I know it’s crazy but that’s how good the drama was and is. It was the first ever Asian drama I had watched, hence it holds a special place in my heart. If the original version was this good, I had to check out the new version of Full-house drama which was released in 2014, and I have to say that it was amazing. Full-house Thai Drama is remake of the same Korean drama Full-house, even though being the same story it does have its own colors and characteristics. Full-house is a story about a girl Aom-am who is tricked by her friends to go to Korea for a vacation so that they could sell her house and make money for themselves. Being a naïve girl, she is badly tricked and now a homeless girl she has nowhere to go. The only house she had was taken away from her by her own friends.
