I was finally able to check out Ava DuVernay's film A Wrinkle in Time during a rainy Thursday matinee after several weeks in wide release. At this point, there is not much to the plot synopsis that I can really add. But, the screen presence of Mindy Kaling, Oprah Winfrey and Reese Witherspoon as celestial guides speaking of light, energy, vibes and balance help elevate this Disney sci-fi fantasy into an enjoyable and mystical film that left me with a feeling of exhubeation long after the screening was over.
By responding to A Wrinkle in Time in such an emotive manner, I know there are others as well, so I am completely perplexed why this film has a low rating on movie sites like Rotten Tomatoes and IMDb? The female driven narrative about finding your own light, despite of other people's darkness is a positive message for a younger Disney audience and makes A Wrinkle in Time far from a terrible film. 🎬🎬🎬 (3 out of 4)
