Review of A Wrinkle in Time (2018) by Compi24 — 10 Mar 2018
In this baffling narrative feature follow-up to her 2014 hit "Selma," director Ava DuVernay trades socially resonant thematics and solid performances for what's basically a couple hours of infuriating logic vomit.
Both movies do have Oprah in them, though, that's for sure. It's honestly been a long time since I've seen such an immeasurably dumb, narratively tone-deaf movie backed by a studio with such confidence.
There's such an impossibly small amount of sense in this story that it's actually hard for me to believe some sort of snafu didn't happen between the Disney executives and the creative minds at hand. This might just be 2018's living embodiment of "biting off more than one can chew.
" So many ideas, yet no consistency or care to explain any of it. Yeesh.
