A Wrinkle in Time's reviews
Media reviews
The Wrap
"Awash in bold colors, bright patterns and ebullient kids, director Ava DuVernay?s new take on A Wrinkle in Time dazzles its way across time and space even if it doesn?t quite stick the landing".
Indiewire
"It almost doesn?t matter that the movie is too emotionally prescriptive to have any real power, or too high on imagination to leave any room for wonder; DuVernay evinces such faith in who she is and what she?s doing that ?A Wrinkle in Time? remains true to itself even when everything on screen reads false".
The Hollywood Reporter
"Only the faintest glimmers of genuine, earned emotion pierce through the layers of intense calculation that encumber Ava DuVernay's 'A Wrinkle in Time'".
Variety
"'A Wrinkle in Time' is wildly uneven, weirdly suspenseless, and tonally all over the place, relying on wall-to-wall music to supply the missing emotional connection and trowel over huge plot holes".
The Guardian
"The film is tentative and over-protective, as though it?s terrified that a story empowering kids to help good battle evil could give someone a nightmare. It reduces the whole universe to one girl?s self-esteem".
Screen Crush
"DuVernay (?Selma?) fails utterly in her search for urgency in this story and cannot concoct a threat any more palpable than the ?darkness? of which Mrs. Which speaks".
