Doctor Strange 2 has already been released and it cannot be compared to Spider-Man: No Way Home, because they are very different.
Attention SPOILERS. At the end of 2021 we were able to enjoy in cinemas Spider-Man: No Way Homethe third installment of peter parker from Tom Holland that brought together a lot of characters from other installments thanks to the “multiverse«. Now it’s released Doc Strange 2 and we can verify that they have not imitated the formula, but rather they have reinvented it.
In Spider-Man: No Way Home abuse the «fan service» bringing characters like doctor octopus by Alfred Molina Electro by Jamie Foxx, Green Goblin by Willem Dafoe, Alligator by Rhys Ifans and Sandman by Thomas Haden Church. We had already seen all of them in previous sagas and the main character tries to help them. That is why we come to empathize with them. They then show the shocking death of the Aunt May (Marisa Tomei) and at his lowest point, the hero has the help of Peter Parker’s versions of Andrew Garfield Y Tobey Maguire, who star in very emotional and funny scenes. But if someone is looking for that same feeling of happiness and joy in Doc Strange 2you may not find it, but you will get a different experience.
The film is closer to Sam Raimi’s cinema than to Marvel Studios.
fans of the series Evil Dead they will probably be delighted. Since even the second post-credits scene refers to the demonic hand of Ash WilliamsBruce Campbell.
In this film, as in Spider-Man: No Way Home we can see some characters that have been added for the «fan service», but nowhere near the same effect on viewers. Since the applauded appreciation of Andrew Garfield Y Tobey Maguire It has nothing to do with the presentation of the illuminati. Also, viewers while watching Doctor Strange 2 probably don’t empathize with Captain Marvel (Lashana Lynch), Captain Carter (Hayley Atwell) reed richards (John Krasinski) black lightning (AnsonMount), Mordo (Chiwetel Ejiofor) or Professor X (Patrick Stewart). Although it is true that some of them we had already seen before, all they do is, attention SPOILERSkill a version of the Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch)lie to everyone and die at the hands of Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen).
So, Spider-Man: No Way Home is funny, emotional and saves the villains. While Doc Strange 2 it is enigmatic, with elements of horror and kills the heroes (including Scarlet Witch). Although, this does not mean that it is worse, nor better. Simply that they do not use the typical formula of Marvel Studios which has become the third installment of the peter parker from Tom Holland in one of the highest grossing movies in history.
Conclusion: You can enjoy Spider-Man: No Way Home and of Doc Strange 2but in totally different ways.
The movies of Marvel Studios they are on the streaming platform Disney Plus.
