Disney's A Wrinkle In Time hits theaters this Friday, March 9th. It's no secret that we're big fans of Disney films. You can just take a look at my reviews for Moana and Beauty and the Beast if you think I'm kidding. Also, in the spirit of full disclosure, the rest of this post does contain affiliate links. I will receive a small commission if you make a purchase using one of my links.
Anyways, back to A Wrinkle In Time. This film is based the beloved A Wrinkle In Time Quintet written by Madeleine L'Engle. I'm beyond stoked that the film is directed by the fabulous and greatly talented Ava Duvernay!
A Wrinkle In Time is a magical tale about a middle schooler named Meg Murry whose father disappeared mysteriously four years ago. While everyone around Meg seems to have given up hope on him coming back or even being alive, Meg can't help but feel it in her bones that her dad is still out there somewhere. Then out of the blue 3 otherworldly visitors come to warn Meg that her father is in serious danger. Meg, her brother Charles and her classmate Calvin set out on the adventure of a lifetime to finally find and save her dad.
This story has already captured the hearts of many with its book form and will no doubt capture the hearts of many more fans with the film version. The visuals from this movie have been nothing less than stunning. Also, can we take a moment to talk about the star-studded cast?!
There's THE Oprah Winfrey playing Mrs. Which, Reese Witherspoon as Mrs. Whatsit and Mindy Kaling as Mrs. Who. Of course, we can't forget about Storm Reid who's playing our main character Meg and the handsome Chris Pine who plays her dad. The cast alone is reason enough for me to go this movie. Hopefully, you're marking your calendars as well and planning to take the family to see A Wrinkle In Time this weekend.
