Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2022)

I think I went into this movie expecting too much. There were a lot of cool surprises, but I was expecting more from multiversal travel. You get a taste of the multiverse and see one world’s Illuminati which includes several fan favorites. I was hoping for more hopping like a Rick and Morty episode. Wanda was a villain that made sense and had a brutal ending to her goal. This movie also used a lot of horror elements and even got a little graphic at times so kids may have a nightmare or 2. This isn’t a bad movie, I was just hoping for more multiversal hopping because there are so many possibilities and this is the perfect movie to get weird with it.
